W is for Watermelon

This week during language experience, the Preps ate watermelon. They focused on what they could taste, smell and see. For example, some students said that the watermelon looked "juicy" and smelt "sweet". Students sounded out these words and then used them to make a sentence.

P is for pancakes!

On Friday, the Preps made pancakes. Language experience activities, such as making pancakes, are used to motivate leaners and make visible links between spoken and written language. The Preps brainstormed words about what they saw, smelt and tasted (identifying sounds they could hear in those words, for example pancakes starts with p) and used these in their writing.
