I like itchy imp

We had lots of fun learning about the letter Ii. 

We made igloos, ink splot paintings and we got to use the new school ipads! 

We played phonic and problem solving games on the ipad.

We added more words to our popcorn words list too.

in, is, it

We used these words to write a new book called

"Where is my Igloo". 

Alfoil Artists

When we studied the letter Aa we became Alfoil Artists.

Here is some of our Amazing Artwork!!

We made alphabet soup with letter stickers.  We had to put the stickers in alphabetical order...it took a lot of concentration!

Wrapper Free Wednesday

Tomorrow, Wednesday 21 March is WRAPPER FREE WEDNESDAY.

We had 23 wrappers in our lunch boxes today and we are trying to lower that number tomorrow! 

Please ask the children for suggestions as to how to reduce wrappers - we talked about it today.

Popcorn Words

During the course of this year the children will begin to build a bank of sight words to add to their 'reading skills toolbox'.  In Prep B we call these sight words Popcorn Words - because you should recognise them as quickly as popcorn popping in a pan!

So far we have introduced three Popcorn Words...

 

I and my and see

 

You can help the children remember these words by identifying them in bedtime stories, writing little stories using the words as sentence starters, or making little flashcards or memory type games.  Even leave little notes for them to find with the words on.  It's meant to be fun and enjoyable - and exciting and rather clever too!
