Our Sound Slide Shows are available online!!

The teachers in Kinder have made some slide shows to help Kinder children learn their sounds and blends!
Click on the link to get to the page on the Kinder Blue wiki. (The Kinder Red wiki will begin next term when they start technology lessons!) Both classes can use the slide shows at home!!

A great site to help with learning letters

This is a great site to help teach the Kinders what the letters look like in capitals and lower case. There are also some good activities for teaching shape and number. Parents might like to play the games with their children (especially the keyboard activities)! It's a fun way to learn these tricky concepts!!

Weeks 5 and 6

These last two weeks Kinder have been practising typing their names. In Week 5 we typed into 'Word' documents, and in Week 6, into 'Power Point'.
These first few weeks we've been focusing on SKILLS.
Some of the Kinders had trouble recognising the letters to type on the keyboard as they were in CAPITALS. It would be great if the parents could practise with the children recognising their names and other letters in capitals!
Please check out your child's Power Point on the wiki !!!
