FROM THE CLASSROOMFROM THE CLASSROOM

Class Kinder In L3 we are learning how to predict what might happen in different stories.  We are trying very 

hard to use our imagina ons.  We are focusing on when to use capital le ers and full stops in our 

wri ng.  In Maths we have been learning about length as well as our daily number ac vi es.  In 

HSIE we are looking at important people in our lives and reasons why they are important.  We 

chose a special person and made them in our Art session.  In Library we made a ‘Venn’ Diagram 

comparing two stories that we have worked on.  We had to work out what was the same in ‘Koala 

Lou’ and “Possum Magic” and what was different. Keep reading with your child daily and revise 

the sight words on their bu erfly charts so they are familiar with them when reading and wri ng.
