Our
Learning this Term
Literacy
This
term we are learning to write Persuasive Texts. Persuasive texts present an
opinion about a particular topic. We will be focusing on the language of
opinion which is used to express a point of view about a topic. So far, we have
discussed how people can have different thoughts, feelings and points of view
about the same situation. For example, you might think that reading is the best
way to spend leisure time. A friend might think that reading is not the best
way to spend leisure time, because they prefer playing sports.
Numeracy
In
Numeracy, we are focusing on the concepts of Money, Addition and Subtraction (with
and without regrouping) and Numbers to 100. To assist your child in their
learning it is helpful to involve them in every day numeracy operations.
Shopping and cooking are great examples of incidental times when simple maths
can be used to solve problems.
Dancing
Dancing lessons have now started and we are all
enjoying the extra exercise. If you have not paid for these lessons, please
make sure you do ASAP so that your child does not miss out.
Health
This term in Health the children are learning
Protective Behaviours. Student will learn to judge when they are feeling unsafe
and then provides them with strategies to enable them to keep themselves safe.
HASS
We are continuing to focus on Geography in Term 4.
We have been learning about Places and Spaces around us. We are able to
identify and describe natural, constructed and managed spaces and their
features.
