I hope you enjoyed some of the great weather on the weekend and had a wonderful mothers day filled with LOVE!
Mental Maths
From all reports, most of the children loved the Mental Maths last week and were very keen to complete unit 2 this week! If your children finish unit 2 before Friday, please pop it in the purple box at the front of the room. Thank you to those who gave instant feedback to their children by marking their work. We very much appreciate it.
Snails
Next week for Science we will be looking at snails - how the move, what they look like and where they live. We are also going to (attempt) to build a snail enclosure this Friday so we would love to have as many guests in our 'hotel' as possible. If you have any snails at home, could you please bring them to school this week for our Science lessons. We would love to have a hands on experience with our slimy friends.
New friends in Year One!
We now have two new additions to the Year 1P classroom. We have Leaf girl and Stick girl, two spiny leaf bugs who are living in our class. Feel free to come and have a look and meet them! The children are loving our Science unit on mini-beasts!
Constable Care visit
This Friday, the children in Year One will be visited by Constable Care on how they get to school. They will be learning how they can travel to school safely and also talk about road safety. Keep an eye out for photos of this great community initiative.
Walk to School Day
Please refer to the newsletter with information about walk to school day this Friday. I will hopefully be joining the children from Cape Rise!
Reading Testing
Over the next few weeks I will be testing the children on their reading as a part of their final semester grade for reports. Please ensure that your child brings their reading file to school each day as I will endeavour to change their book to their new reading level as soon as they have been tested. I have loved seeing the children's growth since the beginning of the year!
If you have any questions, please email me.
Thank you for your ongoing support.
