Gus's First Day

I was away from school today and was so sad to miss your first day in Room 1 Gus! Our teacher aide Liz took these photos so I could see what a brave and grown up boy you were on your first day at school.

 Watching and learning what to do at jumpjam!
 Mum and dad came too.

 Sharing news at circle news time.

 Listening to Letterland on the listening post.
 What shall I write next!
 Reading my first story to make sure it makes sense. 
Super story Gus! 
You are so clever at writing!

 Mini whiteboards
 Lunchtime with my friends Oliver and Roko.


 You are a super reader already Gus!
Your writing and your spelling are amazing!
 What a super listener you are!
Everyone in Room 1 is so pleased that you have joined our class!
