A Life Like Mine

We started our new inquiry social studies topic today!

We found it interesting looking at some photos of children's bedrooms and tried to match up the rooms with photos of children from around the world.

Jenna had the idea to take photos of our bedrooms at home and see if we can work out which class member the room belongs to.  If you would like to do this - please email me a photo of your bedroom by Monday next week.

We are still doing well at building up our reading stamina in Daily 5.  I hope you are reading daily for enjoyment at home for at least 15-20 minutes.  If you email me a 'Read to Self' photo - I will put your photo on our blog.

Have a great week!

Week 3 already?!

Wow the last two weeks have flown by!!

We are getting really good at building our stamina in Daily 5.  We have reached 20 minutes in Read to Self and 6 minutes in Read to Someone.  Here is a video that Miss Tempero took of our whole learning team reading!

We also had some great learning team photos taken of us that afternoon.

We really enjoyed having Mr Lee join our classroom last week.  He is training to be a teacher in Korea.

We got our collage portraits finished last week and they are up on the wall looking amazing!
