We have started presenting our information reports on animals, their adaptations, environment and threats facing their environment. Students have researched, planned and written very informative reports and confidently presented them to the class.

Well done to James, Sofia and Lincoln for returning their diorama homework projects already. They did a brilliant job of making shoebox models of an animal’s environment. We’re looking forward to seeing the rest of them.

In literacy we have been focusing on conventions of language such as spelling rules and punctuation.

In maths we have been consolidating our understanding of money and mapping by creating our own Jurassic world theme parks. Student have been working with budgets to fill the park with appealing attractions and dinosaurs. Next week we will work on mapping our parks.

We have been getting to know Grade 1 buddies and each Friday we will do activities with them. Last Friday we wrote about our favourite things, drew pictures together and played games.

This week we have started our swimming program. This program will run daily during week 6 and week 7. Make sure your child remembers to bring bathers, goggles, towels and a bag for their wet things.
