Year Two  

Spotlight on Learning

Dear Families,

The students had a fabulous time celebrating Pentecost and Multicultural Day with a parade and completing Religious Education activities.  Here are some photographs of the day.

The students have enjoyed learning about how to measure the mass of objects. They have learnt about the importance of estimating before actually using a balance scale to determine the mass.

Next week we are learning about...

Religious Education: we will be practising for our community Mass which will be held on Wednesday 18th June at 9:30am. All parents/guardians are welcome to attend. 

Mathematics: we are continuing our Measurement unit where we will look at using uniform informal units to measure, compare and order the capacity of various objects. 

English: identifying the most important facts about snakes, droughts and floods will be the key focus as we build background knowledge for our text in Week 10. We will also be identifying and using adverbs in our writing. The c and g rule will be a continued focus in helping students to read and spell words.

Auslan: students will be learning the 'Can I' and 'Can you' signs to ask questions like: Can I have a pencil please?, Can I eat?, Can I have help please? etc.

Social/Emotional Learning & RRRR: students will be learning to describe the actions that help teams to work well together. They will also learn to describe how teamwork can help when people have problems.

Reminder

Thank you to all the families who have returned the Integrated Studies handout comparing the foods, toys, games and transport from the past. If you haven't done so already please return by Tuesday 17th June as we will be using this information for their assessment in Wednesday's Integrated Studies lesson.
