Reading to my Family.

I am reading my stories to my family.  I have learned a lot of words this year.  Next I would like to read Peppa Pig.

Kelly Sports.

We are learning to throw and catch and to play games, on Tuesday mornings at Kelly Sports, with Coach Cameron.

Who Am I?

We had to tell about ourselves.  I had to think about me and what I look like.  Then write down the words and they are the clues.  We put them into a book so that other people can read them.  They have to think about what person it might be.  It is mystery to solve!!  It was tricky to think about what I look like and to write it all down.

Origami Art Show.

WOW!!  LOOK AT MY AMAZING PAPER FOLDING!!

Telling the Time.

At Maths time I was learning to tell the time on a clock or a watch or a phone or on the ipad.   On this clock here, the big hand is on the 12, and the little hand is on the 6.  This means it is 6 o'clock.  If I change the little hand and it points to 3, then it would be 3 o'clock.  It is a little bit tricky for me to remember, because I went away to China and Room 1 was still learning about the clock.

Reading Eggs.

I play Reading Eggs at school and at home on the ipad sometimes.  I need to match the puzzles to the words.  It was easy for me and I didn't get any wrong.  Next, I want to click on the songs and see what that is.

Writing New Words.

We are learning to read and write new words by thinking about the end sounds of the words.  I just sat there and I was thinking by myself and I put these words on the laptop.  It was tricky for me because it was hard to think of the words.  Next time I would like to do a g and an x at the end.

Origami Art.

On Friday the 3rd of August, some Japanese homestay students visited us from Botany College.  We chatted to them first, took them for a tour around our school, and then they helped us to fold some Origami.  My buddy helped me to make a fan and a dog.

Dancing!

On Monday and Tuesday night, I went to Elim College to dance for Elm Park School in the HPPA Dance Festival.  My favourite part was the first part of the dance because that is the easy part and then it gets harder!  The hardest part is making the triangle.

My Shape Art.

We are learning about shapes like circles, triangles, ovals, rectangles and squares.  I made a rocket ship and I used all of them but not a square or an oval.  It was tricky because the glue went on my hands and not on the paper.  The cutting for a circle was tricky because it's hard to cut around.  Next time I would go and make a sun.

Blowing Bubbles.

We are outside blowing bubbles.  I can see big bubbles and I can see little bubbles.

Stardome Writing.

On Monday the 25th of June, Room 1 visited the Stardome.   We looked at planets and stars and space suits.  Here I am as an astronaut flying to the moooooooon!

When we came back to school we had to write a story about our trip.  Mrs Kerr let us choose some shapes in Tagul and then we had to import our words.  We could change the colours.  We printed them out and put them up on our space wall.  We think they look super AMAZING.  Here is my one.

Mathletics at School.

I am doing those missing numbers.  It is easy for me.  I got a tick because I got it right.  I sometimes do this at home on the computers.

My Honeybee.

Reading on the Ipad.

I am learning to use the Ipad to read a QR code.  I can choose a book cover.   I scan the QR code and then the story comes up on Youtube.  It can be tricky to scan some of the books.  I enjoy it because I can listen to the story and I can watch it at the same time.  I chose this book called The Day the Crayons Quit.

Buddhist Temple Visit.

Reading in Room 1.

I know all my alphabet letters now but I am still learning all my words.  I learn them at home and I learn them at school.  I am getting better and better and soon I can read books about Harry Potter or Minions or Butterflies or even something different.

I am Swimming in the School Pool.

My Fabulous Art Work.

     My Fish.

First we draw a picture from our memory.  Then we draw with the teacher, doing it very slowly.  We have to draw lines like zigzags, curves, circles and lines.  When our work is amazing, the teacher makes it bigger on the photocopier.  Then we can colour it in but we still have to BE VERY CAREFUL!  Here is our beautiful, super work from Term 1!

                                            My Cat.

Maths Games in Room 1.

I have to look at the number on the astronaut and then match it with the rocket that has the same number of stars.  It's tricky to count all of the stars because sometimes it has 8 stars but when you check again there are 7 stars.  They have to be the same.

Fun and Fitness.

We have been working on our fitness this term and we have been trying some new activities.  Here I am skipping and

                                     using the ladder and hurdles.

Look At My Writing!

I am learning to write a recount of what I really enjoyed in the holidays.

First I drew my picture.

Then I told my story to Mrs Kerr and she wrote it down for me.
I copied the words under her writing.

My work looks amazing, wonderful, beautiful and cool!

Year 1, 2018.

Here I am on my first day at Elm Park School, in Room 1.

I am ready to do some great learning this year!
