Year Two - Spotlight on Learning

Dear Families,

This week we had our first Mass as a Damascus Community. Students showed excellent reverence and participated thoughtfully in all parts of the Mass. Thank you to all of the families who were able to be there to support our students. 

As Term 1 comes to a close, we want to extend a huge thank you and congratulations to everyone for their hard work and achievements. It has been a fantastic term of learning, and we are excited for all the wonderful opportunities and experiences ahead in Term 2!

Next week we are learning about...

Religious Education: We will be looking at the beginning days of Holy Week (Psalm Sunday, Holy Thursday and Good Friday).

Mathematics: We continue looking at time and move our focus to calendars and how we can read and use them.

English: We will be looking at the book 'Amma's Sari' where students will unpack key vocabulary within the text. Students will undertake activities related to the story and look at different sentence stems using but, because and so. Our spelling focus is reviewing the Silent Final E Jobs.

Auslan: This week we are reviewing our Unit 2 learning and complete our end of cycle assessment. 

Social/Emotional Learning & RRRR: We are focusing on emotional literacy—learning to recognise and manage our emotions in healthy and constructive ways.

Reminders:

Please ensure you are reading with your child every week day. Students can change their books on a Monday or Wednesday. Students may choose to read books from their homes rather than books from the classroom. Another option is to read to a sibling or pet to practice their oral fluency.
