Welcome Back!

We are back and into it! This is an action packed term and one where we really want to consolidate the students learning from the past two terms. Our Maths focus for the next two weeks is measurement.  We are focussing on mathematical language comparing different objects e.g. taller, shorter, heavier, lighter, longer...

Today for discovery time we had hands on activities comparing lengths and heights. Comparing objects used for holding water and their capacity. We joined hands and realised that with all our students we could make a chain that stretched from our classroom to the fence.

Here are some photos from our first day back.

Stoke Library Trip

This term it is my intention to take a walking class trip to the Stoke Library. Over the next week I will be posting information to assist parents/caregivers to get each student signed up with a library card.  The library experience is made all the better if the students have their own library card and are able to have books issued to them on the day of the trip.  Establishing a love of reading at a young age can be hugely beneficial for learning.
