I am Learning to Chunk Words

I am in Pascal group for reading. We have been learning how to break up words into easier to read 'chunks' to help us read new words.

I need to:
look for parts of words (chunks) that I know to help me read new words.




My Reflection

I am proud of how I could chunk the word up myself without help.
It is easy to to read them because I know the little parts.
It can be tricky to read new words.

I am Learning to Float with an Aid

Room 8 has been visiting the school pool on Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. We have been learning to be safe in the water and using this time to gain confidence and to enjoy being in the water.

To be able to float in the water with an aid I must be able to:

- feel comfortable getting my face and hair wet
- use a pool noodle correctly (under my armpits)
- keep my feet off of the ground



My Reflection
I am proud of how I can swim on my tummy with the noodle.
It can be tricky to float when the noodle goes under the water.
I like being in the water when it is hot. It is fun!

I am Learning to Read a Bar Graph and Answer Questions

I am learning to read a bar graph and answer questions

I need to:
*read the question
*read the data (information) on the graph
*identify the lowest (fewest) and highest (most) bars
*read the quantities
*compare the data on the graph
*answer questions about the data (information) on the graph



My Reflection

I am proud of when I get all the questions right and when I try my best.
It can be tricky to read a bar graph when it doesn't have all of the numbers on it.
Next time I can ask someone on my table for help.
