Term 2 Week 6

Week 6 & 7

 Literacy:

In literacy, we are learning new concepts such as rhyming. Rhyming words are words that end the same. For example, mat and cat or pack and sack. 

Over the next two weeks we will be reviewing and focusing on initial letter sounds -  

Rr as in Robot starts with Rr, Rr, Rr

Cc as in Carrot starts with Cc, Cc, Cc  

Kk as in Kite starts with Kk, Kk, Kk.  

Mm as in Monkey starts with Mm, Mm, Mm.

Nn as in Necklace starts with Nn, Nn, Nn.

Ii as in Insect starts with Ii, Ii, Ii and

Hh as in Hat starts with Hh, Hh, Hh.

Please note that Cc is referred to as ‘curly c’ and Kk as ‘kicking k’

Sight words are look, at, Mum, I, can.  

Koala starts with Kk, Kk, Kk.

Crab starts with Cc, Cc, Cc.

Castle starts with Cc, Cc, Cc.

Numeracy:

The children are learning to identify and write numbers 7, 8 ,9 and 10. We will also learn to count and order numbers to 10, count collections using one to one correspondence.  

ABAB Patterns

Kites with 9 strips on the tail!

Kite Starts with Kk.

HASS:

Wattle Grove Primary School will be celebrating WA Day in week 8. The theme is 'Wander out Yonder' promoting WA locals to take a holiday in their ‘backyard’. Each classroom will be decorating their classroom door that features a location in WA. Our Kindy classroom will be decorating our door from the Perth/Peel region. 

Show & Tell has been enjoyed by all, with the children bringing in great items and learning from each other. Fantastic Speaking and Listening skills are developing. Sharing news is a fun way to build oral language, gain confidence and assist with initial phonic sounds with links to words and vocabulary. Please continue to practise news and help your child to speak in sentences about their object.

Enjoy the weekend together and maybe explore something special about WA, which the children can incorporate into their news telling.
