Teaching & Learning PT

WOW, our first year of school is nearly over and what an amazing amount of learning has taken place during this time, both in the classroom and remotely.

Step Up

It has been very exciting in Prep T over the past 2 weeks as we are beginning to prepare to go into Grade 1 in 2022. We have visited both Mr Tilling and Mrs Bear for a taste of Grade 1 life as part of the Step Up program.

Writing in Prep T

We have continued to learn about writing narratives this term and are becoming very accomplished at drawing a plan to help us. This plan is divided into 4 sections – character, setting, problem and solution, and guides our writing. We began writing stories where a choice of settings or characters were provided and have now progressed to creating our own characters and settings.

Last week Mrs Pepper came to our Prep classrooms with a special delivery that had arrived from the North Pole. Upon opening it we discovered that each of the Prep grades had received a magical ‘elf’ to watch over them during December. We can’t wait to find out each day what ‘Cheeky’ has been up to during the night.
