Reading

This term in Reading, students have been concentrating on developing key skills in reading, including analysing texts to understand their deeper meanings, critiquing ideas and arguments, and making connections between different pieces of information. They have also been actively questioning the material to explore various perspectives and synthesizing their insights to form well-rounded interpretations. These strategies have helped enhance their critical thinking and comprehension abilities, enabling them to engage more deeply with the texts they encounter.

Writing

This term, students completed a special memory book - a project where they had the opportunity to write and draw about themselves and their families. They shared meaningful details about their lives, such as favourite activities, cherished traditions, and special moments with loved ones. Through this creative process, they expressed their individuality and strengthened their connection to their family stories. These memory books serve as a wonderful keepsake that the students can take home, preserving their personal memories and family bonds for years to come. It's a meaningful way for them to reflect on their lives and celebrate their unique stories.

Maths

To end this term, This term, our Grade 5/6 students engaged in a structured sequence of lessons focused on developing strong fractions and decimals skills aligned with the Victorian Curriculum. Students revisited key understandings such as recognising unit fractions, representing fractions in different ways, and making connections between fractions and decimals. They learned to compare, order, add, and subtract fractions with like and related denominators, as well as convert between fractions, decimals, and percentages. Throughout the unit, students applied these skills to real-world contexts, problem-solving tasks, and mathematical reasoning activities designed to deepen their confidence and number sense. This learning helped students build a solid foundation for more complex mathematical concepts in the years ahead.
