Year 3 - 6 Class
We have had a great start to term 2.
In Science, the students have been looking at states of matter and the properties of solids, liquids, and gases. This has involved some fun hands-on activities. Later in the term we will be looking at chemical changes and the properties of natural and processed materials.
Health has us looking at how to keep safe and what to do in an emergency. We will be looking at support networks and who we can turn to when we need help, including contacting 000, and also actions we can take when we find ourselves in trouble.
In English, we are working on narratives and are looking at building our own, unique characters for a story. This will progress into looking at how to structure a narrative and the students will be producing their own picture books.
In Maths we have carried out a lot of activities to help us learn more about mass, volume and capacity. We have also been improving our multiplication skills in class. Later in the term we will look at area and perimeter and start working on division strategies.
In Home Economics, we have been looking at sustainability and how we can reduce our waste at home, school and in the community. We are still planning our school garden so we can grow our own food to use in cooking lessons.
