What we know about friendship

The Tigers have been learning to activate their prior knowledge to help them read and understand new texts.  This week they used popplet to think of all the things they knew about friendship before they read a journal story called 'Friends'.

Poetry Readings

We have been practicing poetry readings this term.  We are trying to make our reading interesting by using expression and changing our tone and pace while we are reading. Here are four recordings by Faith, Elizabeth, Cornelius and Jadaleigh.  We hope you enjoy them.
