Dear Year 2 parents & guardians,

 

Can you believe we have already crossed the halfway mark for our first term of Year 2! We’ve enjoyed a calm, settled and positive start to the year.

 

What we’ve been up to in Year 2:

  • Students are solidifying classroom routines and have transitioned smoothly into the year
  • We’ve been busy exploring all things Place Value in Maths 
  • Revising our Stage 7 Little Learners phonemes (sounds - oral) and graphemes (letters that represent the sounds - written)
  • Commenced our writing unit on Recount Writing
  • Discussing what family life looks like in our homes and comparing it to what it would have  been like in the past, during our grandparents' childhood.

 

Reminders:

  • Bundoora Farm excursion: Wednesday 11th March. Please see Compass for details, permission and payment.
  • Hats: Term 1 is a hat term, so please check your child has their hat at school
  • Library bags: check your child’s Library day and that they have a library bag to borrow books
  • Homework presentations have started
