'AI' WORDS

This week we are learning about two vowels going walking and how the first one does all the talking.

So first up we are looking at 'ai' words...'ai' says the name of the letter 'a'.

We went looking for 'ai' words.

Here are some words we found.
brain
train

grain
rain

pain

again
main
plain
nails
snail

jail
mail
email

Can you find some more 'ai' words?
Send them in a comment then we can post them on the blog.

If you click on the 'ai' picture, you can sing a song about two vowels going walking.
Mrs M says it's a 'coool' song.

LOOK WHAT WE'VE GOT TO SHOW

We have had lots of INTERESTING things brought in for TALK TIME lately. Here are some of our favourites.

Alistair said, "This is my pet fish.

He is a Goldfish. His name is Lachie.

That's my Dad's name too!

Every time I feed him, he comes right up to the top of the tank and gobbles it right up."

Sophia said, " These are 'lamb bones'. They were left over from the lamb we had for dinner. Mum washed and cleaned them. I don't know what part of the lamb they came from. Can you figure it out?

Johanna said, " My Granny's neighbour found this snake skin. It's from a PYTHON. They found it in their backyard. When my Granny first gave it to me, I was a bit scared! The snake got TOO big for it's skin, so it slid out and it had a new layer underneath. It keeps making new skin every time it gets BIGGER!

Emily said, " I have two things to show. This is part of a horse's hoof. I found it when I went to horseriding. It's like a piece of toenail."

"This is a little seahorse that my uncle caught when he went fishing. He was trying to catch a fish but got the seahorse. It's very tiny and feels hard."

Max said, " My grandma gave me these pictures. The 'dinosaur' was made by tearing up little bits of coloured paper and gluing them onto the picture.

The fish is a 'sand' picture. You put glue on the picture and sprinkle coloured sand over it."

This is the 'hand' I took to the 'Broncos' game. I waved it when the Broncos scored. They played the 'Cowboys' and they lost.

Jarvis said, " This is a mosquitofish. It is a pest in Australia. It eats the the baby mosquitoes and other insects.

Billee-Jane said, " I did these drawings. My Mum is teaching me to draw.

Matthew said, " I wear this shirt at football. It is my training shirt. I wear another shirt when i play and I get that at the game. My shorts are blue too. I play for the Wynnum Bugs."

Callum said, " My brother found this seed pod when he went on his excursion to St Helena Island. You can see it had 5 seeds in it. They were very big seeds.

THESE ARE JUST SOME OF THE INCREDIBLE AND AMAZING THINGS THAT HAVE BEEN BROUGHT IN TO SHARE.

WE HAVE LEARNT SO MUCH ABOUT EACH OTHER AND OUR WORLD, HOW THINGS WORK AND HOW TO DO THINGS.

WHAT WILL YOU BRING INTO SHARE AT YOUR NEXT TALK TIME?

A WINDY DAY FIND

When we went to the oval to play at lunchtime today, we found some small branches, sticks and twigs on the ground.

They had been blown off the trees because it was so windy!

Most children just saw them as STICKS, but not Harry, Courtney, Lachlan and Emily.

They were amazed to see something else hidden in the sticks!

They saw LETTERS!

They found an 'r', a 'j', a 'y' and lots of 'L's'.

Big 'L', little 'l', thin 'l', thick 'l' and flat 'l'.
Add a rock and you have an 'i'.

Next time you're on the oval, at the park, in your garden or out in the bush, take a closer look.

What LETTERS do you see hidden in nature?

You might, like Harry, Courtney, Lachlan and Emily, be SURPRISED with what you find!

Leave a comment and tell us what you found.

Take a picture and email it to 1mgems@gmail.com or bring it in to show.
