Writing a recount

We are learning to write a recount. Room 4 went on a field trip to the Botanical Gardens last week. We wrote about where we went, what we did, who we went with and when we went. After we wrote our stories, we published them. We used Kidpix to make a picture which matches our story. It is tricky remembering everything to put in our story sometimes. We are proud of our publishing.

I went to look at the flower. I like the red flower. I really liked the red flower. I went to see more flowers. Next I came to see the pink cute flower. Next I came to see the spiky flower. By Ali.

Making pizza

Yummy! We made pizzas to celebrate the end of our inquiry on wellbeing. We were learning about compost and how we can use it in our garden to grow some healthy vegetables. We then used these vegetables to add flavour to our pizzas. 

Middle sounds

I am learning to sound out new words and listen for the middle sound. I played Spelling Bug. I need to put the letters together to make the words that match picture. It is easy for me because I can find first letter and I can use my robot arms.

Telling the time

We are learning to tell the time. We made watches today. It was fun. First we wrote the missing numbers onto the watch. Then we decorated the watches. Next we drew on a little hand and big hand. We chose our favourite time of day. Mrs Bovill recorded us reading our watches.

It is tricky to draw the little hand. I am proud that I did it all by myself.

Describing words

I am learning to use describing words to make my story exciting. I am so proud that I can use describing words and that I am trying my best. I am proud that my story makes sense. It can be tricky to sound out describing words. The next steps for me might be to read my story again and add more describing words. I could look at pictures for ideas of describing words and read more poems and books.
