Typing Our Names

We have been learning to:
Type our names on the computer....
We have to use the 'shift' key to make a capital letter
We have to find the correct letters on the key board, in the correct order
and we have to use the 'space bar' to create a space between each persons name.

In the mornings when we arrive at school we add our names to a list on the computer. This is giving each of us some good practise every day.

Here is Jasmine and Reuben typing their names when they arrived at school one day this week...

Learning How to Read e-books on the Computer

Today we learnt how to use Oxford Owl to read books online. We can access these books via this class blog on the 'Listen to Reading' tab above. We were able to use our new head phones as well. 

What a fun way to read books and listen to how good reading sounds!

Road Safety

Room 3 and 4 have been learning how to be safe in cars and when crossing roads. Constable McKitrick came to school and we all practiced putting our safety belts on in his police car.

                       

We practiced crossing the road at school and also walking past sneaky driveways. When we were in Richmond we had to be really careful as there was lots of traffic. We walked across pedestrian crossings, and had to look both ways in case there were any cars coming. We had to make sure they stopped for us. When we crossed at the traffic lights we had to wait for the green stick man before we could cross. Just ask your child to learn more about safety in and around cars and what to look for.

Back From 2 Weeks Holiday
