Term 2 Learning

We are almost half way through the term now (where did that go) and have been working hard. To summarise what we are learning this term:

Our school wide concept is: 'Past, Present, Future'

We will be exploring why: 

Toys/games are important to a range of people of different ages and cultures. 

Some toys/games have changed over time, whilst some are still the same.

Big Questions: 

How have toys/games changed over time? 

Which toys/games are the same/different? Why?

 

Writing: 

We have been/will be looking at powerful verbs, using a hook such as onomatopoeia; dialogue; staccato sentences. These skills are reinforced through our personal recounts and cameo writing. There will be a particular focus on Transactional Writing: Exposition and report related to our topic.

Number: multiplication and division (Weeks 1-2)
