Counting backwards

I am learning to count backwards from 10. I had to count backwards from 10. This is easy for me. It is tricky for me to count backwards from other numbers. It makes me happy when I can count backwards. 

End sounds

I am learning to use the beginning and end sounds to help me read new words. 

"I had to put a peg on the end sound. The end sound is 't'. I chose the cat."

Writing for a purpose

We published our story. Our story was about mum. Mum was our word of the week and it was going to be mothers day. We wrote our story so Mum could read it. We have been learning that we write for a purpose. The purpose of our story was to tell Mum something we like about her.

"My story is about my mum. I wrote about mum because I love mum and she loves me. Writing is tricky for me. Writing is nice. When I write by myself I get a special sticker."
