Math
|
This week, we talked about numbers
and the meaning of one more and one less. This was a tough concept
to grasp for most, so we focused on quantity representation for them.
|
Next week, we will talk about
doubling. However, for those who need to revise, we will continue to work on
number recognition. I will be sending you an initial assessment e-mail for
numeracy.

Inquiry
|
This
week, we read the book “The very
hungry caterpillar” by Eric Carle. Then we focused on the initial part –
the simple patterns of the caterpillar. We explored visual patterns through
various activities linked to the book and made a caterpillar necklace as our
main project.
Central idea: Patterns help us understand how the world works.
Lines of inquiry:
Our learner profile for this week was ‘caring’. Please encourage your
children be caring towards others and include our new friends in play.

Next
week, we will continue to read the book “The
very hungry caterpillar” by Eric Carle. We will focus on the butterfly
aspect of the book and go into more complex patterns including shapes.
Our
learner profile for next week will be ‘principled’.
Please encourage your children to make good choices, to be fair and
honest.

Home Learning
|
As a home learning activity, please practice writing
‘j’. The kids found this a bit tricky. Please focus on the curve going to the
left and leave a gap before the dot.
