Fish and Chip Friday

The Year 2 excursion to the park was a way to celebrate our 'You, Me, Us' Unit and to sit with our family and friends and have a lunch of fish and chips. At the same time we made a donation to Project Compassion and thought about all the people in the world who could not be doing what we were doing. It rained a little on the day but we still had a great play on the Spider Web playground and did lots of skipping. The Zooperdoopers were fantastic!

Sports Day and Graphs

On Friday we had our school Sports Day. We participated in fun activities like Poison Ball and Chase the Tail with everyone from Year 2. We also had running races where we had to run as fast as we could over either 60 metres or 80 metres. There was lots of cheering from the four school teams and the Red team won the day.

This week in Maths we have been learning how to collect data and display data using a graph. Yesterday we collected data about different coloured counters and today we used Fruit Loops. We have used both a Bar Graph and a Column Graph to display our data.

Values and Seasons

This week in Maths we have been busy learning about months and seasons. We have played lots of different games and activities to help us remember the months of the year and what months match to seasons. We have played YES and NO Month Quizz and Month and Seasons Memory. Do you know what season we are in right now?

In our Writing with Mrs Juler session today in the Library we continued to plan our story about our favourite day out with our family. We can't wait to start writing our Personal Narrative next week.

Today in our Unit Work we talked about Team Values. A value is something that is important and useful and includes things like kindness, excellence, forgiveness and trust. As a class we decided that it is important for our class team to have the values of kindness, honesty, courage, respect, trust, friendliness, love and care.

Number stories and St Patrick's Day

This week in Maths groups we worked on number stories. We read stories and then had to write addition or subtraction number sentences to match. Here's one for you to try - I found 8 shells on the beach on Monday. On Tuesday I found 5 more shells. How many shells did I find altogether?

Today we celebrated St Patrick's Day. Did you know that when Patrick was 16 he was captured by pirates and taken to Ireland. He looked after sheep in the mountains and he was a brave man. He showed love by helping people to learn about Jesus.
