Welcome to 1/2DS

1/2DS is off to a flying start! 

In these early weeks of Term 1 we are getting to know one another better, becoming familiar with new routines in our new class, and building our skills across all areas of the curriculum.

As part of our Literacy and Inquiry units, we are learning about healthy food. Check out our self-designed healthy meals that include foods from each of the five food groups.

Our focus in Maths for the next few weeks is place value. We are learning to represent numbers using tens frames and to use place value charts to write the number made. We are building our understanding that our number system is based on tens.

We have also been learning about prayer - who prays, how do we pray, where and when. We reflected on the prayers we already know., like our School Prayer and the Our Father. We used the "Five Finger Prayer", to help us think about who we can pray for, and to use in our morning prayer time.
