Year 2 News

Dear Families,

Hope you all had an amazing Term 2 holidays and welcome back to a new Term 3. We have certainly hit the ground running this term! With so many amazing and exciting things to learn we just couldn’t be happier with the return of students.

This term during Investigations, we have a focus on “forces”. Within this we are creating our own robots that will have an aspect of them use pull or push to make them, or a part of them move.

Within maths we are focusing on 3 digit number place value and 2D shapes, classifying, sorting and identifying features of the shapes.

English has been intertwined with investigations as we explore informative texts. We break down the different features of a informative text, identifying and explaining why we need the features and how they are used to help us better understand the text. 

Coming up, we have book week which we are so very excited about! Exploration of books and love of reading is so important and being able to represent this in such a fun and engaging way only deepens our enjoyment.

Thankyou,

Ashlea Sagona, Krysta Flahive, Ben Walker, Nicole Timbs, Gracie Lucignani, EmilyScott McCabe, Nathan Gauci, Tenylle Crees
