Maths time

Eternity helps Ngarino with her maths sheet by using the number card on Ngarino's core board.  Fantastic communication girls!

Talk to learn - Shopping Week

This week in Talk to learn Ngarino and Teziah have been learning communication skills around the topic of shopping.  As a treat they got to put these skills into practice by walking down to our local Dairy and buying an Ice Cream.  They had to use sign language, and their core board to communicate with each other, their Teacher Aids, Me AND the shopkeepers.  Here is a video we have create together to help them relive and build on their learning in the future.  A great REWINDABLE learning example for these children.

Supermarket

Today for talk to learn we built our own supermarkets.  Teziah and Ngarino shared the blocks to build their own shelves and buildings.

Toys

This week at talk to learn we are talking about toys.  Today we sequenced a train then we made a train track.  Teziah and I shared the pieces to make our tracks.  Nice work and lots of fun.

Ngarino writing a story

This week Ngarino has been learning to write a story using a new iPad app called Clicker 7. I love how she is monitoring what she is writing. Well done Ngarino.

A milestone for Ngarino!

Today my wiggly tooth fell out.  I am SO excited!!

Ngarino remember to put your tooth under your pillow for the tooth fairy!

I really love looking at my new smile!

Spelling

I can spell the names of my classmates.  The first four names I spelt from memory.  The remaining names I spelt by first looking at each name on the publishing wall once and then writing each name on the whiteboard.  Fantastic observation and recall Ngarino!!

Publishing wall where I would see how each of my classmates spell their names.

Name spelling on the whiteboard.  I remembered how to spell each name by looking at each name only once on the publishing wall!!
