Week 2

Kia Ora and welcome to week 2 of home learning :) 

I hope you have all enjoyed the sunshine and the autumn colours that are around. 

At the moment we are unsure what level 3 will mean to us but as soon as we know we will be in contact. 

I have put up some activities for your children to do as well as the home learning packs which you should have all received by now. Please feel free to pick and choose what works for your whanau. I have also got a list at the end of this post of education games that students may want to play on a device.  

Feel free to send me any work or get in contact via my email.

Below is a video of myself reading a 'big book' called the Dawn Parade. The children can listen to me while seeing the pictures from the book(hopefully it will work) With it being Anzac Day on the 25th (Saturday) it is a great time to discuss some family history or make some art e.g. poppies. 

READING:

Again please encourage reading every day for 5-10 minutes. 

Read to your child this will increase their oral language. 

Ask them questions about the stories, get them to retell the story again in order of key events. 

Record their reading and send to Miss Love. 

The books in the Home learning packs may be a different level to their usual but work on sounding out sounds, looking for high frequency words.

This site has a few of our big books that we read in class. You can listen to someone read the story and look at the pictures at the same time. 

*Below is a reading compression 'The Zoo Vet". Your child can read the story and then answer the questions below. I have attached a link that you can copy and print off or below are the screenshots of the activity.

HIGH FREQUENCY WORDS:

Get your child to read their high frequency words, play memory with them, make them into flash cards, write them, make them with letter magnets, read them, say them. Repetition is key here :) 

SPELLING:

Essential spelling list: 

Read these, say them out loud, make them, write them. Try to pick 6-10 words and focus on them for the week. Put them into sentences for your child or get your child to write the word in a sentence. 

e.g. THEY: They all stayed at home. 

Below is a link to the Essential spelling list if you do not have one at home.
