Counting Money and Working Out Change

Using other punctuation

I am learning when to use other punctuation

e.g. comma, exclamation mark, question mark, apostrophe, speech marks

I got a telescope paper. I'm really so proud of my telescope paper.

I am proud of myself because I know how to use apostrophes.

Balancing on the beam

We are learning how to balance on a beam in Gymnastics. We have to carefully climb on the beam and stand up. We have to  put our aeroplanes arms out to help us balance. We then have to walk all the way to the other side. Sometimes we have to turn and go back too. It can be scary sometimes because the beam wobbles when we walk on it. We are all getting better at balancing on the beam!

Adding detail

I am learning to add some detail to my writing.

Whales

The whale swims under the water.

I think it is hard to add detail to my writing. My brain doesn't know what to write about sometimes.

St John Visit

Mac from St John came to talk to the children at Elm Park School about safety and first Aid. He brought his mini ambulance Amby along with him. Mac taught Room 11 about who to call when there is an emergency. We looked at different pictures and had to decide if we needed to call for the police, the firemen or an ambulance. We had actions that we had to do to show Mac that we knew who to call!

Punctuation Marks

I liked matching the punctuation mark with the words because I know them.
