Learning Area: Learning Habitat 2 - Literacy
Learning Observed
In literacy Jiani has been working really hard. In our lesson we were working on thinking of questions that we want to find out about our books. Jiani was reading about a man named Rupert and his Ice Cream shop. Her question that she wanted to find out was why does Rupert make ice-cream? This was showing that she is able to be Curious. This is great to see as she is learning about our School Values. During the lesson she got very excited when she found out the answer to her question.
