Year 1RHA Weekly Update (March 21st-25th)

Learning Experiences

Reminders

Maths:

School closed until April 4th for Easter.

Students continued to work on mental strategies

in maths including looking for numbers that make
10 and near 10. Students worked together to
solve problems and then shared what strategy
they used. Students also continued to work on
adding doubles and and skip counting.

Inquiry: Students built a forest in the classroom

English:
We continued to learn about ng, x, oo, and
magic e. Students practiced writing words
with similar ending and beginning sounds. We
studied that book where the wild things are
and studied the setting of the book. Students
practiced sensory writing by thinking about what
they heard, saw, and felt.

and practiced roll play. We first read the

bookwhere the wild things are then students
brainstormed how they could build a forest and
what they would do. We then split into groups and
worked together. The forest they built looks
fantastic and they have already started roll playing
in creative ways.

Themes for next week:

Maths: Mental strategies
Literacy: Story Element: Character where the
wild things are
Inquiry: Imagination
