T2 Written Language

We are learning to …

Write a recount about a time we did something special with friends.

Criteria: I know I have done this when I . . .

- write my ideas in order

- have capitals at the beginnings of sentences and for proper names

- have full stops at the end of sentences

- record some beginning, middle and end sounds in unknown words

- use some describing words

- write how I felt about it and why

- proofread my work and make some corrections to words or punctuation.

  What a great time you had!

Next steps: Try to check for the correct use of the capitals and full stops. 

You tend to write a capital W in place of the smaller letter which does not touch the top line.

T2 Numeracy

We are learning to use a split strategy to solve addition problems.

STUDENT VOICE:
It is a lot easier to add the tens then the ones and I can do it in my head.

T2 Reading

In Term 2 we began with group reading then Mrs Small thought we could do lots of reading around the theme of Reptiles. We read lots of stories and used key words to pick out the important facts of what we read.
We then began an independent study of a particular reptile and had to find the following information.
1. The characteristics of the reptile.
2. The habitat.
3. How they looked after their young.
4. The life cycle of the reptile.
5. What it eats
6. Their predators
7. Other interesting facts
We then presented the information in a booklet form.
