Term 2 Week 3

Welcome to week 3 of term 2… How quickly have the past few weeks gone!

Please remember 3 important events this week. First on Monday, all Yr 2 students will be walking to the Greenbank RSL for our excursion at 9 am.  This is part of our History unit “Australians at War”.  On Tuesday we have a Mother’s Day stall at school.  The children are asked to bring some money (.50c - $5) to buy a gift for Mother’s Day.  On Friday morning at 7.15am we will be celebrating a Mother’s Day Liturgy in the Church.  Please return the form sent home last week if you intend to stay for breakfast.  If you don’t not have the form please indicate on an email or note that I will send to the office for catering purposes. 

The phonic focus this week is on the long vowel sound ‘O’ as in ‘oe’ ‘ow’ and ‘oa’.  Please help your child learn their spelling words as they have a spelling test every Friday morning. We are continuing our Information Report genre and will be writing a report on Elephants.  If your child has any books on Elephants they are welcome to bring them in to share with the class. 

In maths this week the children will be looking at fair shares and division. 

The value for the week is commitment.

Enjoy the week and kind regards,

Felicity
