This is just one last reminder that our assembly is tomorrow and it begins at 9.05am. We are extremely excited and had a great practise today! I would ask that the children come to school in their costume tomorrow and also come with their sports uniform in their bag to change into after assembly. We can't wait to show you what we have been learning about!
Sight Words
I would just like to write a quick note to let you know about the sight words as some parents have been a bit confused with the sight word assessment sheets.Each child in Year One is required to learn the first 100 Diana Rigg sight words by the end of Year. Every 3 weeks the children will be retested to see if they have mastered both reading and spelling the sight word rings that they keep in their reading file. Out of the 25 sight words on each ring, the children are allowed to get no more than 2 wrong (both reading and spelling) before they receive the next set.
This is an example of the assessment sheet we complete at school.
As you can see, 'Little Johnny' has spelt three words wrong therefore he has not passed the sight word assessment.
Little Johnny then receives the note below with a copy of his written words with the words he spelt incorrectly. This can then be used as a starting point to practise at home.
Please let me know if there are any questions or queries and email me at prowse.monique@cathednet.wa.edu.au
Looking forward to seeing you all tomorrow!
Miss Prowse
