Hi everyone, 

Hope you enjoyed our Elephant and Piggie week! Thank you for uploading the activities to FreshGrade  or emailing them to me. I love seeing your children doing activities and I hope you are sharing my comments with them too! There is lots of learning happening - thank you for all your home support!

 Next week we will be learning about caterpillars. Take a look in your backyard to see if you can see any caterpillars out and about!  

Here is the Home Learning Plan and the Wednesday Sharing sign up

Sharing: Next week please have your child share their favourite Fairytale - they can tell us which one they like or show the book.

Last week's sharing was estimating. Thanks for all the children who shared their jar estimates with us online - it was fun to guess the amounts. 

Here was mine - how many pebbles were in a cup and how many pom poms were in a jar. Here are the guesses/estimates that children shared with me...
