Learning in M20

It has been a productive term for M20!

Students have shown great focus and effort in all areas of learning.  

In English, students have been developing their literacy skills by learning to identify and use verbs and nouns to create more detailed and effective sentences. They have also been making text-to-world connections and analysing the language used in a variety of texts. 

In Maths, students concluded their unit on length and area with an engaging ‘Area Architects’ activity. They applied their understanding of area to design ‘Farmer Bill’s Farm’, meeting specific criteria with set measurements. This task provided an excellent opportunity to combine mathematical thinking with creativity.  

This term, students were focusing on History in General Studies. The Year 4s have been exploring the history of Australian colonisation, learning about key events, significant figures, and the impact of European settlement on First Nations Peoples. Students will continue to build on their learning through research and creating a timeline of significant events.  

Our Year 4s have thoroughly enjoyed spending time with their Prep buddies this week! It was a delight to observe the interactions as students took turns reading books to one another.  

Kind regards,
