FMH Learning Assembly
Last week the Foundation students were very excited to share some of their literacy learning with their parents and grandparents. To show how we are using the Little Learners Love Literacy program we ran a mini lesson to showcase the processes we use each day in the classroom. The students used their whiteboards and magnets to make words and then manipulated the words by deleting and substituting other letters to make new words. The students did a chitter chant where they read the letter, said the most common sound, read the matching character's name and as a visual and kinesthetic prompt they used the cued articulation cue for the letters. Each of the students then shared what they loved about some of the activities we have completed across the term.
We celebrated the birthday students for the term, happy birthday to Hendrix, Rian and Matilda. We awarded three certificates to the following students:
Matilda for her fantastic sounding and blending
Kihayl for his wonderful work in maths
Rian for the fantastic giraffe he designed and created during STEAM.
We concluded the assembly with the students teaching their guests how to play some of the literacy games we enjoy doing during our literacy lessons. Thank you to the FMH parents for their continued support in working in partnership with myself and the students to create a wonderful learning experience on the day.
1/2 Learning Assembly
The year one and two students had a wonderful time last Monday presenting their learning assembly to their parents, friends and family members. Throughout Term 2, students have learned about the features and how to construct a procedure text. They have published their procedure texts about:
‘How to Make Fairy Bread’, ‘How to Make a Balloon Rocket’, and ‘How to Make a Paper Helicopter’ and set up stations to teach their visitors how to make or create, following the steps that they had written.
The year one and two students loved sharing what they have been learning about procedure texts and hope that their special visitors had as much fun making and creating things with them as they enjoyed giving instructions.
