Term 2 Week 2 News

Jolly Grammar – We looked at …ss and …zz in words that have a short vowels sound. We learned about pronouns too.

Maths- We are becoming more confident with Rainbow Facts. We made a R.F. poster and will be bringing them home soon. Please hang up somewhere to help your child become familiar with R.F.s.

Writing – This week we read books about mums, wrote about our mums and then typed up our writing into Word.

Inquiry this term, with Simone and the year 1 classes, has a focus on Geography (place – constructed, natural and managed), History (then and now) and Science ( animal features and habitat). We are also including Jeannie Baker books into our Inquiry topic.

Collage will be a major element of this term. So we are asking for donations of ‘off cuts’ of fabric, material, hessian, lace, ribbons, felt, leather, wool. Also things like wrapping paper, coloured card, twine, string, buttons…….. Be creative……anything you can think might be useful!

Parent homework – Photos of a grandparent as a baby and more recently are needed asap for a History activity. Copies for us to cut and glue please.

Sharing – week 3 is something about your mum. Please help your child prepare an interesting talk that goes for a couple of minutes.

We hope that all of our mums from room 13 get spoilt on Sunday!!
