Year Two  

Spotlight on Learning

Dear Families,

 

Don't forget to watch the assembly video to watch our students sharing all they learnt from our incursion last week!

 

This week our students have been deeply engaged in a variety of learning activities that have sparked curiosity and fostered growth. Our Integrated topic is encouraging students to dive deep into their families histories and think about how things have changed from the past to present day.

Next week we are learning about...

Religious Education: we are continuing our learning about Pentecost and unpacking our scripture in preparation for our Mass in Week 9.

 

Mathematics: we are beginning our unit on measurement where we will look at using uniform informal units to measure the mass of various objects. 

 

English: identifying the main events in the text, 'Sea Country' by Patsy Cameron will be a key focus. We will also learn to use adjectives to expand our sentences. Students will read and spell words pertaining to the c and g pattern.

 

Auslan: we will be learning that signers can use pointing to refer to people and objects in the room. 

 

Social/Emotional Learning & RRRR:  students will be exploring and learning problem solving strategies.
