I saw the sign and it opened up my eyes….. I saw…

May 19, 2018 | Kiwi – Year 1 Blog

I might be the only one singing the Ace of Base song “I saw the sign” as I read the title of this blog however it is very relevant to our Karearea class at the moment as we have been learning about the ways in which signs communicate important information to us.

Our Karearea class went walk-about this week and looked at the signs that

‘TELL US WHAT TO DO’,

‘WARN US TO BE CAREFUL’ and the signs that

‘INVITE US TO SAFELY MOVE THIS WAY’.

 

We were so surprised to realise that signs give us such a lot of information and they often use few, if any, words.  We looked at signs from other countries and delighted in the fact that we understood them.

Have a look at some of the signs we were very interested in and ask us what these mean.
