Dear Parents / Guardians

We will begin our news in week 6 (Monday 2nd of March) and students are able to bring something in to show and share with the class. It would be helpful if you practice your child’s news at home.

In English we have been learning about syllables, rhyming, initial sounds, oral blending and onset and rime. The phonograms that we have been covering are: s, a, t, i, p, n, c, k, e, h, r,m. The stories we have read are: Grandpa and Thomas and Granny Grommet and Me.

In Mathematics we are learning how to write numbers: 0 - 20, counting forwards to 100 and backwards starting at 20. We are linking quantity to numeral 0-10 to begin with then beyond.

In Science: That’s my hat!

Students observe the properties of materials of everyday objects. They explore the effect of changing the type of materials used on the observable properties of an object, such as changing the materials used for the brim of a hat to make the hat more or less sun safe.
