This week 

Next term

Phonics/
writing
This week, we reviewed tricky sounds and teachers have assessed all students on their letter sounds and camera words.
Next term, we will keep reviewing sounds and tricky sounds. We will focus on segmenting and blending (reading 3 letter sound words) and keep on learning 2 new camera words per week. The first week back will focus on reviewing all camera words learned so far.
Math
This week, we reviewed numbers from 1 to 20. We practiced writing all numbers by making 20 scoops of ice cream! We reviewed putting all numbers in order, counting from 1 to 20 and recognizing all numbers.  
Next term, we will focus on numbers, problem solving, 2D and 3 D shapes and vocabulary to compare and describe weight, length, height and measuring.
Inquiry
This week, we revised all patterns and life cycles and tried to expand our thinking by asking ourselves  how we can apply the life cycles we have learned to other animals. Can we guess the life cycle of a snake? Of a dog? What about a fish?  
Next term, we will start a new cycle of inquiry based on the theme of Peace. 
-We will first assess our understanding on emotions and how we feel
- we will then look at 4 main emotions such as: joy, fear, anger and sadness.
we will link our emotions and moods to color and create a visual picture for our emotions.
- we will then look at our behavior when we feel a certain way, how we express ourselves physically, our voice changes? Our body moves differently? Our face expression?
-We will then look at the way we treat and behavior with others, do we treat others with kindness? Patience? Respect?
- we will then expand our thinking and explore the concept of peace how we can treat others with kindness and understand that our actions affect others
- it is our choice that shows if we decide peace or frustration/sadness/anger.
