Foundation - Year 2
From the land of the little people...
As term 3 draws to a close we look back and take note of all the time that has passed and all that we have strived to achieve. Individual efforts have been astounding, and as a class group we are magical.
Somethings we have been working on this term are;
Maths:
The passing of time, Counting strategies, Fractions and the card games of Fish, Snap and Memory.
English:
We have continued working within the Read Write Inc. program, used Vinny, Connie, Penny and Ollie to help us write well and concentrated on writing narratives paying lots of attention to using describing words by focusing on our 5 senses to help us.
Science:
We have discovered about vibration by investigating sounds balloons can make, making rubber band musical instruments and cup phones. We have also studied different ways to package something precious to send through the mail by running our different ideas through some rigorous testing.
HASS:
From our picture book study of My Cat Likes To Hide In Boxes we chose a country, asked some inquiry question about that country and then answered the questions by searching for relevant pictures, talking to adults and sometimes we talked to our family and learnt about their travel experiences. We put all of our research into a picture book made with Book Creator.
Thank you again for all the support you have afforded me throughout the term. I promise you it does not go unnoticed. It is so important for us all to work well together for the betterment of the beautiful children in our care.
Wishing you all a fantastic time over the holidays with lots of laughter and fun.
