Week 2

Devotions

To start this term we are learning 'Who is God?' and 'Who is Jesus?' Last week we looked at God as King and this week continued out learning talking about God being caring. We talked about shepherds and how they look after sheep - and in the bible it talks about how God are the shepherd andwe are his sheep (Psalm 95:7). We learnt some fun songs this week and also are continuing to learn the days of creation from last week.vHere are the songs from this and last week:

We are also learning a song called
If God is...
(sung to the tune of If you're happy and you know it)
If God is the King make a crown
If God is the King make a crown
If God is the King and you want us all to know it
If God is the King make a crown
-This week we added the verse:
If God cares for you give a hug!

Letter and sounds of the Week:

This week we started our class 'letter of the week'. This letter will be referred to throughout the week during writing, reading, poetry, news and wherever else it fits into our day!

For news this week we had people sharing about areoplanes, apes, animals and April! We also came up with an AMAZING collection of words beginning with the letter a in our alphabet book.

Phonics Sounds of the week:

This week room 1 has had lots of fun with developmental, patterns, and watching our beans begin to grow. Here are a selection of photos from through the week.

Art

On Friday we used washout photos to help us create self portraits using crayons. Our goal was to select the best colours to match our photo. Can you work out who is who?

We talked about the best order to do our pictures in, picking colours that were the closest to our hair and skin colours and carefully looking at the details on the picture we needed to colour. Room 1 did really well!!
