I am learning to identify punctuation.

"I am learning to read and sound out the words.  I know how to say what happens at the beginning and middle and end of the story.  It is hard to read the big words, not 'Kingfisher' because I have read the book before, but it is hard to read the other big words. My Mum helps me at home, and Mrs Wyatt helps me at school sometimes."

I am learning to write words with vowels as the middle sound.

"I wrote a Silly Sentence.  I was learning vowels in the middle of the word.  I drew a cat on the mat.  Mrs Wyatt helps me learn the words."

Tapa Design for the Art Exhibition

Whole Class Reflection – Art

Learning: “I learnt how to draw patterns.”   “I learnt to not put too much dye on the cotton bud.”.  “I learnt about tapa from Samoa, Tonga and the Cook Islands.”

Tricky: “Drawing some patterns was tricky.”  “The dying – had to be very careful.” “Keeping the vivid on the pencil lines.”

Proud: “The dye looked beautiful and I was proud of that.”   “I was proud of my patterns.”

Help: “I needed help to dye some parts of the panels, drawing over the pencil lines with vivid, putting the right cotton bud in the right container, knowing about different patterns.”


Next: “I want to learn more patterns.”   “I want to know more about the Cook Islands, Tonga and tapa.”  “I want to use vivids more in the classroom.”  “I want to learn more about drawing.”

I am learning to write and use a range of simple words.

"I find it hard to remember to do my full stops.  I am good at writing the letters that I hear in my mouth.  Sometimes my friends and Mrs Wyatt helps me with my writing."

I am learning to identify a sentence, for eg, the beginning with capital letters and the end with full stops.


"I am finding letters that go with cat.  It wasn't hard to find the letters. I did it all by myself. I felt great when I finished."
