Holiday News

The Reception students came to school this term very excited to see their teachers and classmates again. They were eager to share about all the fun things they had been doing this past holiday.

This term we are focusing on becoming more aware of punctuation and writing sentences. The students are learning about using capital letters to start a sentence, having finger spaces between words and using full stops to end a sentence. Each student told the teacher a sentence about their news. The teacher writes the sentence and the student copies the sentence in their books. They then draw a matching picture about their news. The following sentences are about the students’ favourite fun things that happened in the holidays.

Zion Durojaiye (5 years old) “I played with my truck at the beach.”
Sofia Haskins (6 years old) “I watched a movie with my friend.”
Omime Ogumah (6 years old) “I went to my friend’s house.”
Kaedy Frey (5 years old) “I went to the beach.”
Jonah Atson (5 years old) “I played with my cousin.”
