WALT explore and share ideas about music from a range of sound environments

WALT explore and share ideas about
music from a range of sound
environments.

Room 4 were lucky enough to have Mrs D come 
into the classroom to teach a music lesson 
about sound. First we clapped along to the 
rhythm of 'Twinkle, Twinkle, Little Star'. 
After we had learnt the pattern, we used clave 
sticks to tap along to the pattern. It was great 
using the sticks as some of us had used them 
before! 

WALT sound out 3 letter words.

WALT identify 2D and 3D shapes

WALT identify 2D and 3D shapes.

This term Room 4 have been learning about
shapes. We have been learning about how to
sort shapes and what different shapes look like.

Miss Donnell took us outside to test our knowledge
on what shapes we know. She gave us some
chalk to try and draw the shapes we knew. Then
she said shapes out loud like rectangle, triangle,
a shape with 3 sides and we had to try and draw
them!

WALT read back our writing

WALT read back our writing.

This term we have been learning about how to write
awesome stories. We started by drawing pictures and
talking about our ideas. Then we started writing our ideas
down in a sentence. We have even started using full stops!
When we come and see Miss Donnell we check that our
work makes sense by reading it to her.

WALT order numbers to 20

 WALT order numbers to 20.

The Seahorses have been working on ordering numbers to 20. 
We made sure we knew all of our numbers to 20 first and then we talked about what 'ordering' means. 
We used a game called 'Race to 20' which helped us to order our numbers quicker!

'I can find 18 and 5.'
