Whaea Rhonda's support in room 14

Term 1, week 5

Kia Ora whanau/Caregivers

It's been another busy week in room 14.  The tamariki have been busy learning  how to identify and read basic sight words. They have been learning how to write a simple sentence that has 1 idea.

For Math we have learnt how to join 2 numbers together to make a set or group. The tamariki have been learning new math vocabulary such as the word number bonds.

Whaea Rhonda comes  into room 14 twice a week assisting the tamariki with their alphabet knowledge. It's great to see Raymin  feeling confident as he can decode  and read these words.

I captured some photos of their learning this week.

Raymin and Ardijah wrote a simple sentence copied from the white board.

Kaikohe is still very short of water.  We have been talking about conserving water. Please ask your child what  you can do to help. Readers have been going home this week. Please read with your child each night to encourage reading fluency.  Don't forget to sign their reading log. Every night your child reads they get a sticker. Once they get  20 stickers they can choose out of then treasure box.


Have a great weekend and keep saving water!!
