Literacy Tree - Dear Earth

Celebrating Our Beautiful Earth: A Year 1 & 2 Literary Adventure!

In a burst of creativity and a wave of enthusiasm, our Year 1 and 2 students have embarked on a heartwarming literary journey, exploring the wonders of our planet through the enchanting book, "Dear Earth" by Isabelle Otter and Clara Anganuzzi. This unit, carefully crafted by Literacy Tree, has sparked joy and a sense of responsibility in our young learners.

"Dear Earth" is a truly beautiful book, filled with vibrant illustrations and a gentle message about cherishing our home. The children have been captivated by its pages, learning about the Earth's diverse landscapes, its amazing creatures, and the importance of protecting it all.

A key focus of this unit has been expanding their writing skills, specifically through the use of conjunctions. It's been wonderful to witness their confidence grow as they connect ideas and build more complex sentences.

The classroom has been buzzing with excitement as they've shared their thoughts, ideas, and promises to care for our planet. It's truly inspiring to see these young minds develop such a strong connection with the Earth and a dedication to its well-being. We can't wait to see what amazing things they accomplish as they continue their adventure in literacy and environmental stewardship!
