Week 3 in 1B

Another great week of learning.  The students continue to teach us wonderful things through their symbaloo news.  It is great to see how creative the children have been with their presentations.

This week in maths we were working on our subtraction skills. Working in pairs, we used paddle-pop sticks to make groups of 10, and then did some big sums, eg 50 - 22; used 20 sided dice, and number lines to work on our skills.

 

 

 

This week in THRASS we found some more GCA's.  (Grapheme Catch All's).  These are the words that aren't on the THRASS chart, but still fit into the sound box on the chart.  For example 'm' sound in Autumn would be in the 'm' sound box, but it would need to be represented as 'mn'. The 'a' in China, would be in the 'u' sound box with 'bus and glove'
