Week 1 Term 4

 

Week 1, Term 4 – Blog Post

 

 

 

 

Our Learning this Term

 

Literacy

 

This term we are learning to write Persuasive Texts. Persuasive texts present an opinion about a particular topic. We will be focusing on the language of opinion which is used to express a point of view about a topic. So far, we have discussed how people can have different thoughts, feelings and points of view about the same situation. For example, you might think that reading is the best way to spend leisure time. A friend might think that reading is not the best way to spend leisure time, because they prefer playing sports.

 

 

Numeracy

 

In Numeracy, we are focusing on the concepts of Money, Addition and Subtraction (with and without regrouping) and Numbers to 100. To assist your child in their learning it is helpful to involve them in every day numeracy operations. Shopping and cooking are great examples of incidental times when simple maths can be used to solve problems.

 

 

Dancing

 

Dancing lessons have now started and we are all enjoying the extra exercise. If you have not paid for these lessons, please make sure you do ASAP so that your child does not miss out.

 

Health

 

This term in Health the children are learning Protective Behaviours. Student will learn to judge when they are feeling unsafe and then provides them with strategies to enable them to keep themselves safe.  

 

HASS

 

We are continuing to focus on Geography in Term 4. We have been learning about Places and Spaces around us. We are able to identify and describe natural, constructed and managed spaces and their features.
