Welcome to our Quadblogging Buddies!

This week it is our turn to host our Quadblogging Buddies.
Our buddies are from 3 other schools around the world:
Room 19 Pinehill School are from New Zealand
Year 4V are from UK
and
2W@TKS are from Saudi Arabia

This is our last week of Term One so this week we are remembering all of the fun things we have enjoyed so far this year.
In Science we enjoyed growing plants and watching our mealworms grow and change.
In Maths we learnt about seasons and calendars. We practised strategies for addition, learnt about shapes and measurement and built marble ramps to showcase our skills in 3D shapes and measuring with metres and centimetres.
In English, we read and enjoyed lots of Eric Carle books. We talked about the strategies we use for reading and got better at reading by practising "read to self" and "read to someone". We have learnt about nouns, verbs and adjectives.


We have enjoyed learning, reflecting and blogging.

What have you learnt so far this year?
We have two weeks holidays over Easter. Do you have holidays soon?

  1. We also have "read to self" and "read to someone" too! Hey do you know daily 5 too? We do it in our class, with "work on writing", "word work" and "listen to reading". My favorite daily 5 activity is listening to reading on Razkids.com. Do you listen to razkids too?

    1. Thanks for your comment, Arwa.
      So far this year we have only learnt "read to self" and "read to someone".
      We were excited to find out that there are 5 activities!
      We will learn more about the other Daily 5 after our holidays.
      We are glad you like them because that means we probably will too.
