Silly Sentences

LI - write independently and sound out the beginning, middle and last sounds of words in a sentence.

Now that we know how to listen to the sounds and form first sounds, end sounds, digraphs and even the middle sounds, we can now write sentences by ourselves!!! This is one of the silly sentences I wrote down - My cat is not fat but my hen is not thin.

Phonics time!

LI - to recognise the first sound of a word

In Room 2 we are trying our best to sound out the sounds that we hear in a word. The word queen begins with a q, volcano begins with v, kangaroo begins with k and zoo begins with z! Look at the beautiful forming of my letters.

Reading Eggs

LI - to log on Reading Eggs

I am learning to log on Reading Eggs by myself. I am using a card that has my username and password. I want to practice this at home also so I can get better. 

I know how to go on the activities on Reading Eggs map. I am learning the sounds and I collect Gold Eggs!

Recognising Sight Words

We are learning to recognise the magenta sight words.

In Reading nga tamariki have been making great progress pointing to each word and using the pictures to help them read a sentence.  Each week we have a new "word of the week" and students do their best to identify that word in their book.

"I am good at reading the words", said Zara.

I am learning that illustrations help me read the story

In Reading we have been learning that the illustrations help us to read the story.  If I am unsure of a word I can look at the picture and it can help me.

"I can ask for help when the word is tricky", said Zara.
