Room 14 make a big start on Talk for Writing
Room 14 have started Term 3 as they mean to go on! The children have come back focussed and ready to work and have already done so much even though it’s only week 2.
We have started our ‘Talk for Writing’ programme, by learning ‘Rosie’s Walk’ by Pat Hutchens. All the children have been learning the actions to retell the story about a chicken going for a walk around the farm. We then changed the character and/or the setting. We had two students who wanted to change both so we had ‘A Quokka’s Walk on the Beach’ and ‘The Zebra’s Walk in the City.’


Our general theme this term is ‘Our Planet.’ We are studying the beach in Geography and the children have made beach pictures and talked about what they do at the beach. We will be learning more about activities we can do there and what to wear, whatever the weather. In Health we are doing healthy food and where it comes from. This will include some yummy bush tucker treats.
We are all excited for a great term!
