We kicked the day of with some statistics. We looked at our clown glyphs and chose 3 things that we could make comments about.
First we looked at how many letters we have in our names. We found out that most people have 5 or 6 letters in their names. Only one person had three letter and one person had 9 letters.
Next we looked at who has brothers, sisters or both in their family. We found out that there were more people with sisters. We said that will mean there will be lots of girls starting Discovery School soon.
Finally we looked the different ways we get to school. We thought this was very interesting! We found out that most people came by car. Celestine said that people come by car if they live far away. Some people who lived near school walked to get to class.
We went out for PE and practise doing the shot-put. Mr D was amazed at how quickly we picked it up. Lokesh and Haylee did really well. When we got back to class we watched a YouTube clip of Jacko Gill doing the shot put.
For writing today, we talked about how to plan out our weekend stories. We worked out what questions we need to ask and what things to think about. Mr D shared a weekend story with us too.
For reading, we looked at what happens when "Magic-E" appears at the end of the words. Here are a whole lot of words that have "a" and "Magic-e."
We did our printing this afternoon and practised how to do the letter "d". It starts like an "a" but keeps going up to the top of the line and down again.
Then this afternoon we went swimming. Everyone was so good in the pool. Mr D thinks he really does have a school of fish in his class!
