Around the Traps - 2/3C

Josh Carr

2/3 C has been doing great work in all areas this week, here is a little run down of what we have been up to.

 

Maths

Our focus has been on maps and locations.  Learning about compass points and looking at Beechworth and our local area.

 

Literacy

In writing lessons, we are working on understanding the structure of narrative texts.  We are meow using our plans to write a narrative.  We have also been looking at ways to improve our stories, from choosing strong words to adding punctuation.  Our reading focus ties in nicely with our writing focus in that we are trying to reduce the repetition of basic language when writing. We are also working on identifying when authors are using strong, interesting words in their writing. 

 

RE (Religion)

This week students have been given the opportunity to discover ways to use their gifts and talents to serve others during Lent as a preparation for Easter.

We have also been looking at the life of St. Joseph and how he was chosen by God to protect Mary and Jesus.
