I Am Learning To Sound Out 3 Letter Words

I am in Kiwis for reading and we have been learning to use different reading strategies. We have been learning to sound out 3 letter words.

We need to:
*Sound out each letter in the word in order
*Blend the sounds together to read the word

We love using Stretchy Snake!


My Reflection
I am learning to stretch words out. I found this easy because I know how to spell the words. My next step is to spell by sounding out slowly. 

I Am Learning To Create A Self Portrait


I drew my self portrait using a sketching pencil.
I needed to think about size, shape and position of body parts

I coloured my self portrait using pastels.
I needed to think about using colours effectively by blending different pastel colours

I coloured my background using pastels.
I needed to think about using warm and cool colours for effect
I am learning to draw a Self Portrait. I found this tricky because it was hard doing the moth and eyes my next step is to the hair.

I Am Learning to Read Bar Graphs and Talk About the Results


I am learning to read a bar graph and answer questions

I need to:
*read the question
*read the data (information) on the graph
*identify the lowest (fewest) and highest (most) bars
*read the quantities
*compare the data on the graph
*answer questions about the data (information) on the graph

Escada- The dark blue has the most games and he has 9 games. The green one has the fewest games and he has 6 games.

My Reflection
I am learning to talk about the graphs. I found this kind of easy. I need to work on reading the numbers right.





I am learning to use my full stops and capital letters.


I am learning to use capital letters correctly:
I use a capital letter at the beginning of a sentence.
I use a capital letter for the word ‘I.’
I use a capital letter for names of things.

I am learning to use full stops correctly:
I use a full stop at the end of a sentence.


When I grow up I want to be a dentist because so I can fix their teeth.

My reflection
I am learning to  use my full stops and capital letters. I found this easy. My next steps are to do full stops with joining words.
