Kei te pehea koutou katoa-how are you all?

It was so nice to see the sun out yesterday afternoon-I wonder if you managed to get outside for some fresh air?

Did you notice the date today-it is a new month, it is now November(Noema)!

Here is some learning for today.

Fitness 

Phonics

During our Google Meet on Friday, we read a story called Fantail Fantail. Our phonics work today is based on words from the story, so before you do your work, you need to click on the video below and listen to the story again.


Now that you have listened to the story, see if you can hear the beginning sounds of these words.
Here is our rhyming string for today. Can you hear the beginning sound-have a go at reading  all of the words so that you can hear the rhyme.

Word of the week and writing

Here are my sentences using the word you.
Now it's your turn to write your own sentence using the word you.

Reading
Here are the magenta sight words for you to practise reading.
If you can read all of the magenta words, then have a go at reading these red words
And if you are ready for a challenge you can have a go at reading these yellow words!

We were really impressed with how well you all engaged and persevered with your learning-tino pai Tuatahi. 

Here is some learning for today.

Fitness

Today you get to practise counting as well as following a repeating pattern, while working on your fitness at the same time!

  

Phonics

 Now that we know our letter names and sounds, we are putting these together to make rhyming strings.

Yesterday we learnt at words.

Today we have a new rhyming string-can you fill in the missing letters to make the words rhyme?



Can you think of some other words that rhyme with vet, jet, wet?

Writing

Here are my sentences using the word when, have a go at reading them.

         Now it's your turn to write a sentence.



Reading

Let's get ready to practise reading our sight words. Remember to begin here with magenta.

Kei te pehea koutou katoa-how are you all?

Welcome to fun Friday!

Here is some learning for today.

                                  Fitness

Here is a fun energetic song to move to today, enjoy!


Because it's fun Friday, we thought we would post something a bit different to do.
This activity is called 'Spot the Difference'
You need to look carefully at the two pictures to see what is different. It gets very tricky to find some of the differences, so see if you can find 2 differences on each picture to start with.
You can make the picture bigger by clicking on the 3 little dots on the slide and enlarging the screen.
Have Fun!

Alphabet
You have all been doing a great job listening to the beginning, middle and end sounds.  Now it's time to challenge yourself by listening carefully to all the sounds in the words below and then have a go at writing them down to spell the word.

Reading
Friday is poetry day, so here is today's poem to read together with your whanau.


How many times can you find our word of the week?
As part of fun Friday, you can enjoy choosing your own story to listen to by clicking on the links below.

Have a fabulous long weekend Tuatahi and we look forward to seeing you all again next week.
