In Homegroup TP we welcome Mrs Tweedie to our wonderful class! During term 1, we will be focusing on the following areas:

Literacy - In Reading, our main focus will be determining the main idea in texts we are reading and retrieving directly stated information. We will begin sending readers home next week, until then please encourage your child to read books from home or the local library. 

In Writing, we will be focusing on creating engaging narratives with a clear beginning, middle and end and a problem and solution.

Mathematics - In Maths, this term we will be focusing on understanding the place value of numbers and the properties of 2D and 3D shapes.

Inquiry - This term, during our Inquiry unit, the students will explore who they are as a learner and how to work collaboratively with others. This will tie in with our School Wide Expectations - Safe, Respectful, Inclusive and Persistent.

Religion -In Religious Education this term, students will prepare for Lent and Easter. They will learn all about how Jesus lived and what he was taught, including Mary’s special role in the life of Jesus.  Students will explore the Easter story through scripture and the importance of using Lent to focus on people in need.
