Dear Chapple families
Welcome
back to Term 2. It was great to see all the hard work the children and staff
had done during the break. I was really proud of the ANZAC work and the
beautiful poppies.
Although
some of us are feeling a bit “tyred” we have charged on with our inquiry this
week.
Watching
Mrs Kaur work the electric pencil sharper got some of the children thinking-
“How does that work?” I am sure that is a topic we will continue with this
term.
We
have read a book called Wave. It had no words and we had to work out the story
from the pictures and particularly by trying to read the emotions of the little
girl's face. We have continued to look at how do we know what someone is
feeling and have practised several different facial expressions.
Then
on Thursday- “May the four be with you!” A stormtrooper came in to launch our
topic on forces. Jack and Sienna demonstrated push and pull and we experimented
with the force of magnetism.
As the weather is a bit up and down at
the moment, can you please ensure that the children have a named long shelved
school uniform top. They can also bring in named gum boots to change into if
they wish to have some wet play.
Don’t
forget to check out our program wall as it shows a more detailed map of the
activities the children have been doing.
