Term 3 Week 8

This week we have learnt that there are different types of words.  We have been learning about nouns.  A noun is a naming word.  We made a poster of people, places and things.  We also named lots of things in our classroom and around the school.

This week Miss R gave us a new book to help us spell tricky words.  It is called My Useful Word Book.  It is a bit like a dictionary but it has room for us to write our own words.  We can find words because they are in alphabetical order like a dictionary.    There are also some words at the back that have been put into groups like, body parts, colours, sports, family and days of the week.

We have been learning to make and read o'clock times. We used some iPads to play some clock games and we used our own clocks to make different o'clock times.When the big, long hand is at the 12 it is o'clock and the small hand tells us what hour it is.

We are making a dinosaur. We are going to make it 3D so we have to draw and paint 2 sides of our dinosaur.  Our dinosaurs are going to be so big it is going to take us awhile to finish them all.

On Wednesday we had the junior primary sports fun day.  Below are some of our recounts of the day.
