Skittles and Circle Time

This week 2V have been busy learning in maths about subtraction or take-away. We played a cool game called Take Away Skittles - look at the photo and see if you can work out how it was played. In our Unit work - 'You, Me, Us' we talked in our class circle about helping and caring. We made a Helping Hand and we did a Y Chart on what caring looked like, sounded like and felt like. Today we tried leaving a comment on our Blog about last weeks Post from Mrs B. Everyone did really well for their first time. Congratulations 2V!

Super Sentences and Stars

This week in 2V we counted in 100's all the way up to 1000 and played a game called Memory where we had to match the number word and number. We also visited Mrs J in the Library where she taught us how to build a Super Sentence. Our Super Sentences were about a cat! In our You, Me, Us Unit we worked together as a team to decorate a star. We each had to take turns and share the work of making our star look beautiful. Mrs B has put them on the wall near our classroom door. Today 2V spent some time on computers exploring this Blog to see it's different parts, read posts and follow links to interesting sites. Next week we will be ready to leave a comment.

A Big Week in 2V

This week was very exciting for 2V as we welcomed Mrs Mc to our classroom on Monday and Tuesday. In Maths we have been counting in 2's, 5's and 10's. You can practice this counting at home by playing POP with your family!

SJV went to church today for a mass to start off our school year. Lots of great singing and praying. Thank you to all the Mum's, Dad's and Grandparent's who came to join in our mass.

In our Unit Work - YOU ME US - we had the chance to learn more about each other by sharing some things that we liked to do and places we liked to go to. We also read a great book about how we are all alike and different at the same time.

Our First Week

Welcome everyone to 2V. Wow! What a great start to the new school year. We have worked very hard for the first two weeks of school and have learnt lots of new things and had lots of fun. We are using Study Ladder in our Maths Groups and we have been learning to talk about the books we read in Reading Groups. 2V have started Dance Cart, PE, Music and Drama this week. It has been very hot but we have still worked very hard.
