Class Programme
Classroom Blog: Please check out our
Room 8 class blog regularly:
Our blog contains photos, stories,
information, any class news etc.
We love comments from parents, friends, and relatives as well.
Maths: This term the focus is on
Number -Addition/Subtraction Strategies/Basic Facts and Measurement.
Oral Language: This term we
are focusing on reciting a poem to an audience while speaking clearly and
fluently using expression. Your
child will choose a poem from school or a favourite one from home to practise
and then perform at school on their presentation day. Some of the children will
be selected to perform at the Senior Syndicate Speech Competitions between
their speeches as entertainment.
Our class success criteria for reciting a
poem will be:
I know my poem well.
I can use expression.
I can speak clearly and fluently.
I can use a big voice so everyone in the
audience can hear me.
I can use some gestures and facial
expressions.
I can use some props to help recite my poem
(optional)
I have many poems to choose from in the
classroom. Once you have selected
a poem for your child to learn please show this to me for suitablity.
Please refer below for your child’s
presentation day.
Theme: We continue our
‘Wonderment’ focus for the year.
This term we are looking at the ‘Weather and the Water Cycle’.
Your child will become a Weather Reporter
for a day and will present the weather forecast to the class. They will need
help to research this either by watching the weather forecast on TV, looking at
a newspaper, listening to the radio or using the internet. Please refer below for your child’s Weather
Day.
Thank you
Tania Bellamy
Please highlight your child’s
name/date and put this on your fridge or a noticeboard. Don’t forget to
practise reciting your favourite poem and research the weather forecast for the
day.
