We love SSP in 1G!

SSP is Speech Sounds Pic Approach which provides all students with sound choices for spelling and reading. 

We do daily lessons like the one found here that help to train our brains.

Afterwards the students do some speedy reading in pairs and by the looks of it today 1G are good!!





Our first Parent Prayer and Share

 Today we had our first parent prayer and it was so lovely to see so many Mums, Dads, Grandmas and Grandads join us. Thank you for being a part of this time to talk to God.

Afterwards boys and girls in 1G got to share their writing books with our parents. They were so impressed!

Our first visit to the computer lab - Wednesday

On Wednesday 1G visited the computer lab for the first time. We will visit the lab every Wednesday morning and this week we focussed on the website 'starfall'. This is a literacy and numeracy based website and we enjoyed creating characters in our stories.

You can visit the site here: http://www.starfall.com/
