A big group of teachers came to see the 'word inquiry work' we are doing in our class.
They asked us questions and observed our discussions and thinking.

We showed the teachers how to construct the flowchart to help our thinking when adding suffixes. |

We started a new investigation about the 'Long A' while the teachers watched us. We wanted to show them that spelling is a THINKING activity not a memorisation activity. |

We revised the vowels:
a e i o u
and sometimes
the y |

Playing the trading game to understand the meaning of the words for our investigation.
Looking for the long <A> graphemes. |

Look how we can focus on our learning and work even though there were lots of teachers in the room! |
