Year 1/2

Welcome to Term 1! We hope everyone has had a restful break and are eager to begin their learning.

We have high expectations and work hard towards making strong progress in all curriculum areas and individual student goals.

WELLBEING

This term we are learning about the Zones of Regulation to learn to control our emotions.

LITERACY

In Literacy we will be focusing on decoding skills by using beginning and ending sounds and extending comprehension.

NUMERACY

This term we are working on Place Value of numbers and learning to tell the O'clock and Half Past times on digital and analogue clocks.

AT HOME

Our reading program will begin in early in Term 1 . We will send home levelled readers and Oxford words. Until then its really important to read books from home with your child for 10 minutes each night.

UNIFORM

Term 1 is a Sun smart term and hats MUST be warn by everyone. Please make sure your child has a named hat. If you are unsure, check with your teacher.

Be sure to keep an eye on all of the wonderful work and learning our students are doing in the Seesaw app, as this is a regular feature that students will use throughout the week. This is such a positive and engaging way to be a part of your child’s learning, with the opportunity to view photos of work, listen to learning reflections and provide written feedback to your child.

Please refer to the school newsletter for any school news and key dates.

As always if you have any further questions please feel free to contact your classroom teacher.

Thank you,

Ms Kotzur, Ms Turner & Miss Burridge
