Getting Ready for Term 4

I hope you have all had a fantastic holiday and recharged your batteries for a very busy last term. Term 4 will be super busy with swimming and athletics and other exciting events and learning planned.

This term we will be working on:

Writing - Procedural writing - instructions. This will align with our Inquiry this term.

Reading - Building up a better knowledge of the text by being able to inference and retell the story in our own words.

Math - starting with algebra for 2 weeks. Then we will be continuing with our number knowledge and extending our basic facts to using more than one strategy to answer an equation.

Inquiry/Science - You, Me and UV for five weeks. This is going to be very exciting for the children as we move into the warmer season.

Swimming - This begins on the 31 October for 2 weeks. A notice will go home in the first week of term. Room 6 will be going from 8:45am-10:15pm each day with Room 14.

Athletics is rebooked for Tuesday 2nd December. Our syndicate will be practicing before this starting week 5. I will keep you informed of these closer to the time.

Remember it is compulsory to wear a sunhat in Term 4. There have been some left in the cloakroom so if you have lost yours, please look there first.

I look forward to seeing all of you again in Term 4.
