Welcome to the Thumbs Up groups blog

At Thumbs Up Group we develop a set of skills that allow the children to become 'phonologically aware'. Understanding that words are made up of individual sounds and learning how to manipulate those sounds is extremely important when learning to read and write.

Welcome to Green Group and Yellow Group




Today was the first day that Green Group and Yellow Group met in the Paua Pod.  We discussed how to be a good listener and talked about what it mean to give someone a 'thumbs up' when they have done a good job.  Both groups played a listening game where they had to listen carefully to a description, then put a counter onto the picture of the right animal.  Everyone showed excellent listening skills, well done everyone!
