A Lens on Learning

Kindergarten
Kindergarten have been learning about what authors, illustrators and publishers each do.

“An author writes the words for the book.” Rafaela

“The illustrator draws the pictures.” Sienna

“A publisher clips the books together so we can read it.” Patrick

They have also been sharing their ideas with each other - ‘What would you see if you went on a walk?’             

The students then became illustrators.

“We have been learning about adjectives so that we can use them in our writing. An adjective is a word that describes something.  When we use them they make people want to read our stories more.” Laura

“We’ve been making connections in our reading. There are Text to World connections, Text to Text connections and Text to Self connections. Making connections when you read helps you as a reader to learn and know more stories. They help us understand stories better.” Finn
