In Mathematics Year One has been working on subtraction. We have looked at the different words that we can use for subtraction such as: take away, minus, delete and so on. Using different strategies such as counting forward, friends of ten, and place value knowledge help us to solve problems successfully.
In Literacy, we have just finished our writing from our model text, 'Katie and the Crocodile'. Our stories were really good and some included characters that were talking. We used our dialogue toolkit to help us remember what to do when writing speech, which is very tricky, but we are pretty clever at working it out.
In HASS, we have been looking at natural, constructed and managed environments and went on a walk to find these environments at school and discussed and named their features.
In Religious Education, we have been looking at choices, and we know that through our prayers we can ask for God’s guidance for more difficult choices.
All of this has been happening with heaps of discussion, fun, doing and learning.
