Playing by the rules!

Today we had another try at listening carefully to instructions and following as accurately as possible.
Look at these aliens - "Triang-a-lope"
There was even an opportunity to show some imagination and creativity!!

So you can follow instructions Jackson and Aidan!!!!
                                                ...and creative too! Good Job!

Buddy reading

In the Jungle on Thursdays, the Giraffes reading group listen to a buddy read their book.
At the end they ask the buddy 2 questions about what they have read.
 If they get the answers right, the Giraffe reads to them using their best fluency and expression.
 If they don't answer correctly they have to find the answer in the text and read it to the Giraffe. Then the Giraffe shares their story. They make sure they are practising effective communicating skills!!!

It is a pleasure to watch these buddies enjoying sharing their learning together! They support each other so well! Ka pai tamariki ma!!!






After this Hareem skipped off down the corridor with Sophie M. thanking her buddy for listening to her read!!! Precious!
