At Craigburn we try very hard to build a culture of respect, optimism and resilience among the students,parents and staff. In fact our values of Caring, Self-worth and Respect are proudly displayed on the students jumpers and t-shirts as well as around the school.
Here is a fantastic poster that reflects these values and is one that is displayed in Room 4.
Many thanks to Krissy Venosdale for creating and providing this poster through creative commons.
What values do you have at your school?
We are very excited by this milestone and we are going to have a class party to celebrate!
We are sure you will continue to visit our blog to follow the learning in Room 4.
Every now and then we like to play this game. It’s really good for learning our sight words. The game is called Tic Tac Toe and we play it with a magic wand that helps us to remember our words. Sometimes we say the word and then put it into a sentence.
Here are the words to Tic Tac Toe and you can watch the movie to see how it’s done.
Tic Tac Toe around I go where I stop I do not know.

Wow, what a great first day for term 3 we all had! We had a new baby being born, a pet rabbit joining a family, birthday parties, camping trips, movies and much more happening. The children were so keen to tell Mrs. K all about their holidays. So we made a wordle to show you the fun things we did. The bigger the words the more children did that activity.
What did you do in the holidays?
