30/09/11 What's Going On in BD Class?

It is hard to believe that we are nearly at the end of the term. We have only got one week to go. Today's Star of the Day was Tegan.

This morning we made maps of when we went on our lion hunt. We did some cool writing about the maps as well. Yesterday we did some really awesome lions because we are learning about the letter "l".

This afternoon Mrs Berney got out a whole lot of maths equipment and we did some cooperative activities.

Our big news of the day was when Mr D got Boh, Zachary, Ryan, Ashleigh, Baxter and Sophie to record their voices for our Lion Hunt movie. Mr D put it all together at lunchtime and we got to watch it. We thought it was really funny!

What a busy day! Keelan S. was our Star of the Day today.

We had to change the day around a bit because there were some problems with the power. So we started off with printing then we went straight into reading. Some of the reading groups have started to look at blends. Today we looked at "bl" and "cl"

We brainstormed all of the words we could think of that started with those sounds.

After morning tea we watched a movie about the story "We're Going On a Bear Hunt." 

We decided that we would so our own one. Instead we would look for Goliath the Lion. We chose some places to go and look for the lion then we filmed our adventure. Here are some of the pictures from our walk.

We are going to come up with our own story and we are going to record it and put it to our video.

26/09/11 What's Going On in BD Class

It was so nice to have a sunny start to the week today. Mr D wondered where everyone was just before the bell went. Everyone was at school but just outside enjoying the sunshine. It was Boh's first day at school today so she was our Star of the Day.

For printing we are getting back to doing all of our tall letters. This week we will be doing "t" and "l".

For writing we were trying to start our weekend stories in different ways so we can make them interesting.
