Learning to identify numbers and count all objects

I have been learning to write numbers and make that number using equipment and recording dots.

I can count to 20 now.  Ray  11.11.17

Learning to Write the Sounds I can hear

• I can talk about my pictures with the teacher
• I can write with help from the teacher

Keep trying to talk about your ideas.  Talk to your family about your weekend and things you do before you come to back to school so that you have it clear in your mind.  Mrs Templeton  10.04.17

Learning to identify sounds in words to help my reading

I am learning to:

• identify phonic letters and sounds e.g. a, m, am, at, 
• identify high frequency sight words like I, am, at
• say the sounds each letter makes

I like doing Reading Eggs.   Ray  10.03.17

Reading Eggs is a great way to learn some sounds in words.  Keep trying hard

to learn you sounds at school and at home to help your reading.  Remember to think carefully about the sounds the letters make.  Mrs Templeton  30.03.17

• discuss the results and make statements

I kept getting it wrong because it was tricky.  Rayyan  08.0317

Ray, You tried something easier and when you slowed down with me beside you - you could do a little better.  Try to look and listen carefully to the question and choices.
