Thanks to everyone for a great start back to the term.
It is wonderful to see the progress made in our independent learning skills
since the beginning of the year, and to see the letters, numbers, words, and
facts retained over the holidays. We have been enjoying the additional learning
support from Miss Giraud, and look forward to our next four weeks together.
What an exciting day we had last Monday when Mr
Butterworth created chemical explosions on the field! We’ve definitely expanded
our thinking about what a scientist is and does, and this week we focus
specifically on the concept of energy – what it is, where it comes from, and
what it means to be either “stored” or “kinetic”. We will continue to explore
teen and ty numbers – making them by joining sets of tens and ones, and
breaking them down into parts. We are enjoying buddy reading with Room 10 (we
love having an audience for our ideas!), and we’re looking forward to taking
our monochrome/grey scale painting skills to the next level as we explore and
recreate shading and patterns found in black and white photography and design.
Two reminders are repeated this week - please get
those learning journals back asap so that we can start filling them up with
amazing new learning samples, and also, please note that our three way
conferences are on this Thursday –
get in quick to book the time you want!
