News from Prep

Wow! A couple of weeks have gone by, and we have been working hard now that we are in Prep. The students have shown just how responsible and independent they are as all have adjusted well to the expectations of learning in our classroom. 

Some things we’ve loved so far in Prep are English and Maths lessons. We have started our InitiaLit lessons and have explored early literacy skills including word awareness, syllables, rhyming words and some initial sounds.  We have also focussed on sounds through our oral phonogram review including and have started to discover blending and segmenting sounds in words. We are great readers and writers in Prep! 

In maths, we have been practising counting to 20 with a stable number order, counting backwards from 10 and subitising small collections.  Today we wrote our number line to 20!
