Our week in Hawkstone class

As we  come to the end of our mindful stretching unit, this week children have focused on balance through mindful movements.

Our English unit is about the mountain god erupting and this week we wrote a letter to a relative from the perspective of a islander leaving their home due to destruction. The focus was feelings, thoughts and dialogue with advanced verbs.


 


In our RIC sessions, one focus was the use of a thesaurus to help improve our vocabulary. We used these to find more advanced verbs to include in our writing.


The star of the week this week was Benji for his effort and increased confident in swimming, for being able to move from one side to the other independently.

 

We also won the attendance award for the week.
