Some hiragana learning websites

Year 4 are currently learning all 46 characters in the hiragana 'alphabet'. 
Year 5 and 6 should also use these websites for revision and reinforcement.

This website allows you to play a game to see how many hiragana you know.

This website also has an iphone app that you can download to practise hiragana 'on the go'! An excellent site for Year 4 as they can select the rows of hiragana that we have learnt so far.

This site has hiragana practice for each row of hiragana, and you can see the stroke order and hear the sound of each character. Fantastic!

Face parts in Indonesian

Kindergarten, Year 1 and Year 2 are learning the parts of the body in Indonesian.

They have learnt the names for the parts of the face, and they will soon be able to name most body parts in Indonesian!

Year 1 happily posed for these 'parts of the face' photos.

Test yourself at home!
