Week 7

POETS WRITING GROUP

In writing this week the Poets have been practising to write simple sentences. 

They have been practising and challenging themselves to be confident with reading, writing and putting high frequency words into correct sentences. After they have written their sentence(s) they will then check their work to see whether they have included a capital letter and a full stop in the right place. They are being encouraged to fix their own mistakes and to use the words cards to check their spelling is correct. 

Check out the Poets in action!

Second Week of Swimming

This week for swimming we learnt how to enter the pool correctly using the 3/4 turn. 

We continued our learning with using the flutter board and even got the chance to streamline without using it too. 

We really enjoy swimming and our teacher thinks we are getting better at it. Check out our improvement!
