Packing Up



Jack has been working hard towards his Self Management Goal.  He is building more class routines as the term goes by.  He sits on the mat with his book bag, hands his kit book to Mrs Christiansen to check and then proceeds to pack his book bag. When asked to go put his book bag in his school bag he can do this with little assistance.

Patterns



In Maths today we made patterns.  Jack made his pattern of blue and red using the beads. Jack concentrated very hard on his hand-eye co-ordination when threading the beads. 

When asked which colour was blue or red he pointed to it correctly.

Athletic Practise


We are getting ready for athletics later in the term and Jack loves to give high jump a go. Jack enjoys spending time out in the sun giving new things a go.
I think he has mastered the high jump. Good Work!!!

Shape Sorting


Another matching game that Jack really enjoys to do is matching shapes.  He needs very little facilation in doing this.  Jack is starting to recognize the word to match the shape.  He tries very hard everytime to get it right.

Number Match




Jack has been working very hard ordering his numbers 1-10.  Jack can now 1:1 match his numbers from 1-10.  Jack enjoys maths time a lot.
He always sits at his desk willingly and is ready to count.

Birthday Treat



Another awesome day at school.  It was Logans Birthday and we sat outside under the tree for his birthday treat.  We sung Happy Birthday and ate banana cake.  Jack sat with his class and watched Logan blow out his candles.  He ate the chocolate icing from the cake and his chippies.  A nice sunny Birthday treat.

Wonky Donkey


It was a beautiful hot day at Halcombe School.  Mrs Christiansen decided to do her reading groups outside on the field.  Vanessa took this opportunity to read Jack the Wonky Donkey book in the sunshine.  This is Jacks favourite book at present as he loves the flowing and rhyming text.  Jack really likes the pictures and when the donkey says "Hee Haw"!!!
