Phonics:
We will be starting to learn some blends this week. A blend is when two letters or sounds join together to make one sound.
Our new letters for this week are:
L and ai
Must: Students must revise and practice all sounds learnt so far. They must also practice hearing the starting sound for a range of words. Try these ones: dog, kitten, bat, nut, mouse, lollipop, horse, girl, fish, snake, possum, ink, turtle, run.
Should: Students should know the sound and action for all letters learnt so far. They should also be able to write simple 3 letter words. Focus on hearing the middle sound in words.
Could: Students could practice hearing a word and then verbally sounding it out themselves. Eg; mum or dad says “cat” and the child says “c----a----t”
Literacy:
We study a book in class for two weeks. Therefore, each class will be studying the same book as last week. Click on the links in the previous blog to hear the stories online.
Jack Johnson Gala Day:
On Wednesday, students in kindergarten will be walking to White Park for some farm experiences. They will see some sheep shearing, horse shoeing and cattle dog trials. They will be leaving at 11:30 (straight after eating their lunch) and returning at 1:30 (just in time for recess).
Horse Parade:
Thankyou to all the Kindy parents and friends who came along to the Horse Parade on Saturday. The kids looked fantastic and had a great time walking in the parade!
Happy Birthday:
Grace Venables – Saturday 14th May
