We have been investigating the installation of the pizza oven. 
We can't wait for it to be finished! 

Learning to read by ourselves

In Autahi we are learning how to read a book by ourselves. There are 6 things we have to do:
1. Read the whole time.
2. Stay in one spot.
3. Read quietly.
4. Build our reading muscle (stamina).
5. Sit by ourselves.
6. Listen to instructions.

Handwriting

We are learning how to write the letter 'a'.
