Class Programme
Classroom Blog: Please check out our Room 8 class blog regularly:

Our blog contains photos, stories, information, any class news etc. We love comments from parents, friends, and relatives as well.
Maths: This term the focus is on Number Knowledge/Basic Facts and Algebra.
Oral Language: This term we are focusing on ‘reading and retelling a text to an audience’ while speaking clearly and fluently using expression. Your child will choose an instructional text from their daily reading group to practise at home and then bring to school on their presentation day. Your child will first read their story to the class and then retell the story without the use of the book. Pictures will be shown if children require help remembering the events in the story. Please refer below for your child’s presentation day.
Theme: We continue our ‘Connections’ focus for the year. This term we are looking at ‘Family Connections’. Could your child please bring along a family photo for Wednesday that will be used in a wall display? Your photo will be returned at the end of the term.
Thank you
Tania Bellamy
Please highlight your child’s name/date and put on the fridge or a noticeboard. Don’t forget to practice reading and retelling your book.
