Sharing fairly




We have been looking at fractions like halves and quarters and I have been learning to share one whole object fairly between 2 and 4 friends. 

This can be tricky sometimes when I have to share one object with 4 people, 
so we practised how we could do this by cutting our dough ball and pizza's into 4 equal pieces.

"I can cut the playdough into 4 pieces and share it fairly."

My jellybean...




I am learning to use desribing words and add detail to my story writing.

"I just add more detail."

Identifying contractions




We are learning about contractions. This is when you take two words and shorten them or make them into one word.

"I can find contractions in my readers. They are two words that are joined together to make a smaller word."
