Term 2, Here We Come!

We've hit the ground running here in Room 5 for Term 2.  Two new class members, science experiments already underway, swimming started, and lots more to look forward to.

Some of our reading groups are working on becoming more confident with how we tackle new words we haven't seen before, and the 'tools' we can use to work things out when we read.  Like with any task, being able to choose the right tool for the job is a crucial skill.  Here's a photo of a group using the tools from our Reader's Toolkit during a reading session. 

We've also been learning about health and germs, and had a great time making some 'Monster Germ' art to help decorate the upcoming Book Fair at school. The Book Fair starts on Wednesday so be sure to come on in and check it out!  Here are some of Room 5's  blow-art monster germs:
