Stuck inside all week!

Sadly Pre K B have been stuck inside all week because of the heat and rain. We have been able to play in the gym but the children have a lot of energy to burn. I hope the weather clears up for the weekend.



This week, we revised the short /o/  and /u/ vowel sounds and did a cut and paste spelling activity. Our sight words 'not', 'play', 'red' 'my' and 'it'  have been mastered by most students over the last 2 weeks.

I introduced them to Raz books this week by projecting the level aa books on the screen and we read them together. We read 'Big', 'Funny Cat' and 'The Zoo.' I hope that by doing this every day as well as what they do at home they will soon be reading simple sentences independently.

In math, the children used a number line to do simple addition up to 10 as well as counters and blocks to do some bigger questions like 10 ᐩ 10 and even bigger challenge of putting all of unifix blocks together! They found out it made 100.



For Japanese, the students learnt the hiragana ya, yu and yo. (や, よ, ゆ).
On Friday afternoon we watched Boss Baby as we could only use the gym for 20 minutes.


For summer break I will be sending some homework for the children to practise. I understand many people are going away but if you get them to do 5 mins of handwriting a day that would be fantastic.
