We are a class of Prep students, sharing all that's happening in our classroom. This blog was started by the first group of Gems, a Year One class back in 2007. We, the 2012 Gems are proud to continue on the conversation. You can read, watch and listen as we share our learning journey - a journey where we 'learn to blog' and 'blog to learn'. Please visit regularly to see what's new and join in the conversation - we'd love for you to be part of our learning.

LITERACY BLOCK - STORY FOCUS


This week, we are reading one of our favourite books - THE VERY HUNGRY CATERPILLAR by Eric Carle.



In one of our Literacy Block activities, we had to sequence pictures of the food the caterpillar ate in the right order.

As an extra challenge, we could also match labels for the days of the week to the food that was eaten on that day.

After lots of discussion, checking of the calendar and re-organizing, we got it!
We were confident, co-operative and clever!

Caterpillar coughing...c,c,c!
