Inquiry Centre

Highlight 

Selamat Siang,

What a week it has been in the Inquiry Centre! We have had so much fun writing procedures about how to wash our soft toys! We have been working on including adjectives and adverbs in our writing to create more interesting pieces. The 1/2s have been presenting their speeches and they have been doing and amazing job. Thank you for all the support listening and helping your child practise their speeches! Everybody did such an incredible job convincing us of their favourite superpower!

We have also been looking at a range of addition strategies in maths this week including doubles and near doubles as well as friends of 10. We have played a range of maths games in class and explored our understanding.  

Emma, Suzie, Miss Shaye, Amanda, Miss Emmett, Kate and Mrs Seadon.
