Term 1 learning with Grade 2’s
In Term 2, the Grade 2 teachers have designed structured lessons where students will be engaged and reach success. Please see below the content that will be taught this term:
Reading Comprehension - Students will be exposed to many different texts created by fantastic authors and use this opportunity to learn reading strategies to help them have a deeper understanding of the literature and the author's purpose.
Phonics - Students will be learning many different spelling rules for different sounds. Students will then use this phonemic awareness knowledge to read set fluency texts each week.
Writing - Students will be learning about procedural texts, focusing on Recipes. Students will be writing different recipes and getting the chance to cook some of these.
Maths - Students will be participating in the new Explicit Maths Program. This is where students will take part in Daily Review questions, Multiple exposure to teacher completed examples and complete independent practice. Some of the areas that the students will be learning about are addition, subtraction, multiplication and measurement.
Wellbeing - Students will be participating in designed lessons that are directly linked to our school values. This will build their understanding of the expected behaviour at school and create a safe and calm environment for all.
Science - This term students will be learning about physical and chemical science. Students will be given the opportunity to participate in hands-on learning where they will experiment with different materials and study the different types of forces.
Home Reading
Home reading has started. Students should have received a letter that was sent home explaining how home reading will be completed. If your student has not received this, please get in contact with your child's teacher via Compass.
