Our spelling groups have been investigating ‘soft g’. We’ve discovered it’s similar to, but not quite as straightforward as ‘soft c’. We identified gs in a text, then highlighted whether they were soft (sounding like j)or hard (sounding like g). We put our results together on a chart to display in the Support for Learning Base .
Look at what the P7 group have found out.

William has made fantastic progress in his reading. This week he used letter bricks to check he could also spell the words he has been reading.
Fantastic work. Well done 🙂

The P1/2 and P2/3 word building group have been using rhyme to help them with their wordbuilding. Over the last couple of weeks they have read ‘Rockpool rap’, enjoying the rhyme in the story.
They made rhyme flipbooks to show how easy it is to read and write rhyming words. They also used magnetic letters to build some of the words.
Great work 🙂

Wall, ball....

We had great fun finding Wally at the end of our handwriting lesson.
It was fun but also very useful for our ‘Figure-ground discrimination’ work.
You can read more about what this means on our earlier post (February 10th).

Where is he?

I can see him !
