Even though Leylah has been at home because she is not well, she has continued her learning. Well done Leylah for doing some more learning from home. We listened to the story about the bear who liked ice cream and thought it was a funny story but it made us hungry thinking about what sort of ice cream we liked best. Get well soon Leylah, we miss you.
For a fun craft activity, Leylah made not one dinosaur but she made a dinosaur family and labelled them. What a lovely idea Leylah. I like the way you thought about where to take a photo of your family. A grassy setting was just the perfect place for them.
Leylah has been using some great maths thinking to see that 2 x 10 is the same as 10 x 2. I like the drawing you did of the duck and her 9 ducklings to solve this problem. You also answered all the reading questions and managed to find so many rhyming words. Great work Leylah.
Leylah drew a map to show how she would get to school. She also drew and labelled the buildings she passed on her way to school. I think if I followed her map I would not get lost.
Leylah has found that maths and reading come in handy when you want to do some baking. She read the recipe carefully and measured out the ingredients and made the most delicious looking cake. Well done Leylah. You have had a very busy weekend cooking, washing up the dishes as well as doing your home learning.
Leylah went outside into her garden and found a plant to draw for our Thoughtful Thursday activity. I like the way you have included in your picture some of the little bugs you saw too. You have looked carefully at the shape of the leaves and how they are smaller at the top of plants than at the bottom. You have also been busy with your reading, writing and maths. What a great effort Leylah.
Leylah was awarded a certificate for a wonderful class family she made out of paper chain people. She was so kind to included all her class mates. (You can see a photo of her work).
Leylah has been helping her family by watering the plants, sorting and folding the washing. What a great help you are to your family. You are always thinking of others. You are also kind to think about the plants needing water after the sunny days we have had. Your little brother is watching you watering the plants. It is good you are showing him how to be kind too. Well done Leylah.
Leylah has been very busy doing craft activities and she has painted a wonderful self portrait like a real artist. What a beautiful picture. I am sure your family are very proud to have such a lovely picture to hang on the wall. You have also found time to do some of your writing activities. What a great effort Leylah.
Leylah continues to do her online home learning. Each day she answers the maths and reading questions. You obviously listen carefully to the stories Leylah to get all the answers right.
For Inquiry we are looking at our family. Leylah was able to write about who was in her family and she included her pets - two dogs. You were able to answer all the questions on our story today. Well done Leylah.
Leylah put up decorations to celebrate Halloween at her place. The orange spiders web even has spiders in it. I like the orange balloon jack o lanterns. That is a great alternative to making them out of pumpkins which can be a bit difficult. Leylah looks very pretty in her Halloween costume.
At online assembly on Friday, Leylah had her name read out as Room 15s Duffy Certificate winner this week as she has been so kind and helpful to her family. Well done Leylah you have been so helpful and kind to your family.
Leylah likes to help her family and she finds when she helps it makes her feel good too. Well done Leylah - you are a kind and helpful member of your family. You look very smart in your new t-shirt you designed and created for Loud Shirt Day.
Leylah knows how to be polite and thank someone when they do something for her. She drew a lovely picture with a speech bubble saying "thank you" to her aunt. What a nice idea to use a speech bubble Leylah. You have done a great job with your maths and designing your "loud shirt".
Leylah has decorated her "loud shirt" and made a unique design. No one else will have one that is the same. You have made a beautiful "loud shirt" Leylah. I look forward to seeing you wear it at our Friday meet.
Leylah does her home learning in a special book and writes the title of the book her work is based on each day when she begins her work. That is a good way of being able to find your work each day Leylah.
