Sequencing to summarise

Making Connections

Reflection I was learning to make contentions to my life. I found it easy because I had an experience when I felt sad.

Exploring Vocabulary and Language Features

Well done Alex, you have worked well to recognize words with similar and opposite meanings, to see comparisons (similes) using like or as and to realize some words are spelled or sound the same but have very different meanings.

We Are Learning To use Reading Eggs independently.

"I am learning to read books. I find it tricky to do the lessons above lesson 76 because they have difficult words. I find it easy to the other lessons because they have books to read. My goal is to finish Reading Eggspress.'

We Are Learning To find specific information in the text

"We are learning to find information in the story. I found it easy to understand why cockatoos are not friendly because I know birds are not friendly. I found it tricky to know what the word preens means."

We Are Learning About the features of fiction texts.

"We are learning about fiction stories. We know they have a title, setting, character, problem and solution.  It was tricky to find the author. It was easy to look for the characters and the setting."

We Are Learning To read with fluency and expression,

Every week we learn a new poem that we take home to share with our families. We worked with our group to pick our favourite and practised reading it.

"I am learning to read the poem. I am proud of reading the poem. It can sometimes be tricky to read some words in the poem."

I am learning about rhyming words.

"I learnt the words that rhyme, and compound words, and learning about words.  I am good at reading all the words.  The long words are hard to read."

I am learning to use chunking to decode new words.

"It was hard to find the letters. I was learning to read letters and make words."

I am learning to sound out three letter words. Attempt new words and think what makes sense?

In Reading we have been learning lots of things to help 

us to work out new letter sounds and words.

"I liked when Bingo chases the girl" Alex said.

In Reading we have been learning lots of things to help
