We are really enjoying reading a variety of picture books which have a theme of environmental awareness and sustainability. This theme will run through our literacy activities this term. In Information Services we will be learning how to write information reports. Our final activity will be to produce an information report on the Squirrel Glider, a local threatened species. This report will take the form of an e-book. Last week we started looking at how to find key words and put the facts we read into our own words. We learned lots of information about the Giant Pacific Octopus and then used Popplet to publish some of these.
Last week we also began working on a STEM design task with our friends in Year 2. We have started planning our task, working collaboratively to share ideas. This project will continue for a number of weeks. Stay turned for some updates!
A huge welcome goes to Oliver King and his family, who have recently joined our Bayview community after moving from the UK. Welcome!
