Working Hard

Well where has the time gone? It's the 24th already and we are looking forward togoing to the Zoo tomorrow. Thankfully the weather forcast is for a fine, warm day.  Last year when we went it rained all day!
We have been busy working hard and learning to read and we have started taking reading books home. There is great excitement amongst the children as they have "real homework" at last. I wonder how long that will last.
Our class photographers have been busy and here are some of the children -

We have been learning about sorting and classifying and making patterns:

Mrs E read us a story about Joseph and his colourful coat. Joseph had lots of brothers but his dad liked him the best. His big brothers got jealous when the dad gave him a colourful coat.  We traced a Joseph body and then traced our hand and made a colourful coat for him to put on.

On Tuesday we all had to look at a map of Australia and then try tocopy it. It was hard but Mrs E said she was very proud of what we did. Then we had to scrunch paper and put it around our map.
