Reading Books.

We are having a massive sort out of all the reading books in the school. There will be no reading books sent home until next term. The children will be taking their poetry books home each day until the end of the term. Please read through the poems with your child and write in their reading log "Poetry book" as their reading book for the night. If you have other books at home your child could read, or a newspaper, encourage them to read those to you!
Thank you so much for your cooperation :)

What's happening in Room 5?!

Writing - We are learning how to write an information report this term! We will be writing about self-control as well as many different aspects about New Zealand! We will also be concentrating very hard on our independent writing goal! We are all so excited to work hard and achieve our goal!!

Reading - We are focusing on understanding what we are reading. To do this, we need to be able to retell the main parts of the story, think about what the characters are feeling, why they are doing the things they are doing and thinking about what we would do differently if we were in that situation.

Maths - At the moment we have been learning about how to record different information using different types of graphs. We are loving learning about statistics! For the last few weeks of the term we will be learning about fractions! We will learn how to share things equally into 1/2, 1/4, 1/3, 1/5 and 1/6!
