This year we are learning to be mathematicians, writers, readers, scientists, designers, artists, historians and geographers – what a busy life! We are also learning how to be kind friends, independent learners and to be creative.
Here is what we have been up to so far this term…
* Literacy lessons we are rhyming and learning new spelling rules.
* Mathematics we are looking at categorising numbers and how they are represented in different ways.
* Our Science unit is Material World, and we are looking at what happens when we change everyday materials?
Homework and home reading has commenced.
Important days in the week:
Library: Tuesday
Sport: Wednesday
Clothing
Please ensure all clothing especially hats and jumpers are clearly labelled.
Absences
It is a Departmental of Education requirement that parents provide a letter explaining a child’s absence from school for short or long term or partial ie; part of a day.
Medication
Asthma medication should be kept in the student’s schoolbag and the office, and a copy of the Asthma Management Plan prepared by your doctor. All other medication MUST be kept at the office and parents will need to complete a medical indemnity form giving details of doses and times. If your child has any allergies or medical conditions that may require urgent treatment our school needs an Action Plan.
Could I kindly ask for all students to donate a box of tissues for our class. Over the coming months we will be needing them.
I look forward to working with you and your amazing child this year.
