Week 6 Term 2 2022

 Kaya (hello), 

The cold weather is fast approaching, and it’s time to stay warm. Please let us know if your child is starting to show signs of sniffles and we will make sure they stay warm and hydrated. Please ensure school jumpers are clearly labelled on both the collar and inside side label to help return lost jumpers. I am trying to encourage them to place jumpers in school bags when as soon as they remove them so that they are available to wear the next morning.


Learning Intentions 

Writing: Identifying parts of an information report. Writing complete sentences using capital letters and full stops.

Spelling: writing words that contain the long 'u' sound, with the graphemes 'oo' 'ew and 'ue'. Spelling words that contain the long 'i' sound with the graphemes 'y' and 'igh'

Mathematics: To make half past times using digital and analogue time.  To read and answer questions related to data pictographs, tally tables and simple bar graphs.

 

Character Strength 

Love – I experience close, loving relationships that are characterised by giving, receiving love, warmth, and caring.  

 

Wheels After Meals 

Wheels After Meals” is at lunchtime on Tuesday 31st May. Students can bring their scooter and skateboard to ride around on after their lunch. Wearing elbow pads and a helmet is one of the best ways to stay safe when riding around. If you wish your child to participate in these activities, then please bring their items into the classroom to be stored. We recommend that you write your child’s name on their items. 

 

Beanies for Timor-Leste 

Come to school wearing your beanies on Thursday, 2nd June, for a gold coin donation. The money goes towards the shipping costs to send much needed supplies to Timor.  


Year 1 Liturgy

On Friday we had a special liturgy for the Ascension of Jesus. The students loved having the special role of setting up the prayer space and choosing objects that they deemed special before 1S class came to join us.


Important Dates 

Student Free Day – Friday 3rd of June 

Public Holiday – Monday 6th of June

Year One is a favourite year to teach for both of us - we've both taught it for at least five years each and are very excited to be back for another year in the land of Year One.  It  is a big, but exciting year where your child will, discover, grow, create, learn, reflect and experience an abundance of fun and interesting things in our class!   This year your child is lucky to have two class teachers!  Mrs Penny King will be teaching Monday, Tuesday, Wednesday and Friday and Mrs Gemma Sorgiovanni will be teaching on Thursdays.  You are able to contact either of us anytime throughout the week via email and we communicate daily with each other.    As a parent of a Year One student, it is extremely impo
