This term we will begin our news roster (see below). Children will have one day each week to tell us about a special item or experience (topic sheet which is in their News Book is also outlined below). We will be fostering children’s oral language skills in describing, asking and answering questions using our news format. Please ensure only one item is brought each week. You may also email photographs for students to use directly.
If possible, you could rehearse with your child so they have an idea about what they would like to share.
News will commence in Week 3.
