Week 7 Homework (or lack thereof!)

Dear Parents,

I apologise that students' Homework Books and Readers did not go home today. I was not able to return them to school in time. Tomorrow I will send home Homework Books for students to complete Contract 17 if they are able to, along with 1 or 2 books. Of course we understand if students are not able to complete these this week though.

Thank you for your understanding,

Mrs Robinson

Week 5 Art


Dear Parents,

 

Because Friday is a pupil free day, I have decided that we will not do Art tomorrow afternoon (Thursday 30 May). I hope this does not put out any wonderful parents who had planned on coming in to help.

Week 5 Begins

Our Class Goals Update
All students have now achieved our Academic Goal set last term, which was to reach 25 Nights of Reading.  There are a number of students who have also reached their 50 Nights of reading milestone.  Well done Year 2, keep up the great reading each night.
Our new Academic Goal for this term is: 
Year 2 are going to strive to score a higher number of words spelt correctly each Friday, compared to their Monday score.  We are going to try to remember to spell these words correctly even after Friday's test.
Students are going create a graph to track their achievement of this goal week to week.

Year 2 Religion Work

In our current Religion Unit (The Easter Season) students leant about the Paschal Candle and made their own replica. They turned out really well and look great displayed behind our Prayer Space.
