I Am Learning to Write a Story About Winter

We are learning to write on a topic. We wrote a story about why we like Winter in our books. Then we drew a picture on Kidpix and published our stories.

"I remember my full stops, capital letters and finger spaces now. I can write more than one sentence now."

I Am Learning to Draw a Clown

Drawing clowns is fun.

I Am Learning to Sequence a Story

Today we read the story called 'The Hungry Hedgehog'. We then had to put the pictures and words in the correct order on the computer.

"It was a little bit tricky to put them in order."

I Am Learning to Make Repeating Patterns

Today we made repeating patterns with the blocks and beads. 

"My pattern is brown, brown, red. I will put a red one next. "

I Am Learning to Write a Sentence About My Cat and Publish My Work in Kid Pix

We drew our cats on the computer using Kid Pix. We coloured in the pictures using the paint can. We wrote the words in our story book. We were writing a sentence describing our cat. Then we wrote our story on our Kid Pix picture.

"I liked drawing my picture. The grass and clouds were fun. Drawing the ears was tricky. Writing  the story was tricky because the letters were capitals. I liked my story."

Science is Fun

Today we made popcorn at school. We heated the corn kernels until they popped. The water in the kernels turned to steam. The steam needed more room so the kernels popped and were fluffy and white. It was yummy!
