Term 3 Week 5

This week we have been learning about the letter k and the letter d. 

 

We used lipstick to put kisses in our alphabet book.  When Mrs N saw us she thought we must have all been eating some kind of red food!

 

 We made doors in our alphabet book that really open.  I wonder what is hiding behind the door?

 

The theme for book week was 'Reading across the Universe' so we made rockets zooming across the universe and put a picture of ourselves reading a book we like in the rocket.  It looks like we really are reading across the universe!

 

We have been talking about the moon.  We looked at some pictures of the moon and wondered what all the dark spots were.  We used some white playdough and golf balls and worked out that the dark spots might be craters, or big holes in the moon.

 

We are planning a pretend trip to the moon so we have been talking about things we need and things we want.  Needs are things we must have to live.  Wants are things we would like to have but don't need. Miss R wants some chocolate but she certainly doesn't need it!  Here are some needs and wants of an astronaut.

 

 During our computer time we have been learning how to get on to the internet, find our class page and play games.  This week we learnt a new game.  It is called Teach your Monster to Read.  We got to design our own monsters and now we are helping them learn letters and sounds.  There is a link to the this game on our symbaloo page which  is in the box on the top right of our blog.
