Fabulous Foundation

Term 4 Week 8 - Friday 24th November

We are getting so excited as we come close to the end of the year!

We had so much fun with Fizz kidz. Learning all about the different seasons and types of weather! We were so lucky to be able to play with fake snow, and make our very own water cycles.

What we are learning:

Phonics (Little Learners Love Literacy)

This term, across the P-2 cohorts we have targeted teaching groups for Little Learners Love Literacy. Four mornings per week students make their way to their levelled group. It is here that they will be taught at the appropriate level for their ability. The teachers from p-2 know all the children and can scaffold and support each child. We have been going to our Phonics groups each day, we have all learnt so much!

Writing:

In writing, we have been learning about adjectives! We have been practicing adding adjectives to our sentences, to turn them from boring sentences to exciting sentences! We have also been learning how to unscramble sentences from a book, the students are getting so good at this activity, as we do it every week!

Leader In Me:

This week we are learning about habit 1: Be Proactive. This habit is all about being in charge of yourself!

Inquiry/Science

We continue to explore different types of weather both locally and worldwide in Inquiry. Students are learning about meteorologists and we had some brave students be a class meteorologist which was lots of fun. We are looking forward to our Fizz Kids weather incursion on Thursday 16th November. Please be sure to read, consent and make payment for this via compass. Any questions please speak to your class teacher.

Specialist Days:

Monday - Health

Tuesday - Art/Culture & Music

Important reminders:

Please be sure to check compass for information about our Weather Incursion on THURSDAY 16th NOVEMBER. We still require consent from some families. Please speak with Narelle or Michaela if you have any questions.

PLEASE ENSURE YOUR CHILD HAS A HAT EACH DAY FOR OUTSIDE PLAY.

Please continue to check the blue pouches nightly, as we use these to send notices home. We are finding many notices still in blue pouches not read.

Please have your child’s drink bottle filled with water only.
