As part of our Inquiry topic next term, students will be making dioramas of animal habitats. We will be needing one shoe box per student, so if you have any shoe boxes at home that you wish to donate, please send them in! We have a few that were saved from toy making, but will need lots more. Thank you!
Next week for Show & Tell, students will be talking about their pets! If your child would like to bring in their pet, please get in contact with their teacher and organise a time that would be suitable.
World Book Online is a wonderful resource for students to use at school. This term, we have been using it to explore living things, finding out interesting information about animals and playing fun games! You can use the website to research almost anything! Here is a link to the website, as well as the log in details if you or your child wishes to explore the website.

Weeks 2 & 3 have been fun and full of learning! In Maths, we have been exploring place value, using MAB blocks and unifix blocks, as well as multiplication by creating equal groups. Literacy has been full of new sounds and reading new texts with our partners. We also researched information about a butterfly and wrote it in sentences, as well as practising writing letters on dotted thirds. Our students have been super excited to begin interest groups this term, exploring a wide range of animals and fun craft activities!
It was beautiful morning today so we enjoyed PMP activities on the basketball courts!
