Skip counting in 10's

I am learning to skip count in 10's. I put the counters on the numbers that have a 0 at the end. I did that because I can count in tens. This is easy for me. I am proud that I can skip count in tens really well. I can even count in 10's past 100! 

Acrostic poems

We are learning to write an acrostic poem. We wrote about spring. It can be tricky to spell words. We enjoyed writing something for each letter. We had to think of a word that started with S, P, R, I, N, G and we had to start our sentence with this letter. 

Mrs Bovill typed the stories for us and we helped her publish them. We got to choose a colour for the capital letters, the font and we helped choose the size so our page was full. Our poems look awesome! 

We are so proud because Mrs Bovill thinks they are fabulous and we wrote great stories. We are proud because we are poets. 

“It was tricky to think of good sentences to write to make a good poem. I was proud of my story.” Shivam.

Spring blossoms

Look at our spring blossoms! First we drew the branch going across the page. We coloured our branches using pastel. We made the blossoms by scrunching up tissue paper and gluing them onto our trees. We then made a little bee or butterfly to go on our picture. We sketched our picture and then drew it on our plastic film. Mrs Bovill then cut them out and we glued them onto our picture.

Recognising contractions

I am learning to recognise contractions. I circled the words that are contractions. I know they are contractions because the short form is "I'm" and that is short for I am. This is a little bit tricky.
