This week students will practise using a variety of comprehension strategies to make sense of various texts. We will also be practising answering NAPLAN questions, based on the texts we read. Students will continue to practise their reading fluency.
This week students will continue to work on their self-evaluations. Students will also do a cold write (an unassisted, unrevised piece of writing completed by a student).
This week students will recognise and describe fractions. They will do this by saying and writing ‘out of’ sentences with their own fingers
In Spelling this week, we will be reflecting on the year and revisit previous spelling choices. These lessons will be determined by spelling results and areas that need to be revisited.

In Wellbeing this week, we will be focusing on more Respectful Relationship lessons.
Our goal will be:
We will practise using No-Go-Tell in given scenarios.
In this lesson:
We will firstly read through the scenarios and ask students to indicate if they would feel safe or unsafe in the situation, for example students could stand up if they feel safe or sit down if they would feel safe or do a thumbs up for safe or thumbs down for unsafe.
Examples:
-having a picnic with family
-walking into a spider web
-going on a bush walk
-missing the bus home
We will introduce No-Go-Tell as a strategy that can be used when we have no feelings or feel unsafe. This process can be seen in the picture.
