Before the day: Devotions
This week we have been exploring what the Bible has to say about humility and love.
Learning Session 1: Daily 5
Students started off with Word Work. Each student has had a list of words that highlight a certain pattern in spelling. This being the second week with their words, students partnered up and spent time today reading out each others words and placing them in their correct pattern list. This is called a blind sort as their partner doesn't see the word until they indicate where it should be placed.
Students have been learning about poetry and figurative language this term. We have already explored terms such as similes, metaphors, rhyme, rhythm, onomatopoeia and repetition and repetition, but today we looked at my personal favourite, personification.
After looking at some examples and having a discussion, we headed outside to see if we could be inspired by our surroundings. Students wrote down some ideas they came up with which we will form into a poem later on.

Students have been given an updated time table this week. Why not spend some time with them and let them explain to you what goes on in the classroom during each of our learning sessions.
