Term 2 Week 1 Notices

Welcome back to Term 2 2020. 
I hope you all had a lovely and restful Easter break filled with delicious
Easter treats as well as some prayer time as we remember the true meaning of
Easter.

It’s a wee bit different this term - we have had to make some changes. 
This term our concept is ADAPTABILITY - how and why do things change.
We will send a Bingo Board of activities for you each week. 
It is not expected that you will complete ALL activities every week.
Have a go at 3-4 during the week and be sure to share some of your
learning to Educa.  

Learning activities will be posted to Educa for you and your child to access. 
The class blog will be used to share nuts and bolts information with parents
and to celebrate home learning success. 
Teachers will be contacting students over the next little while.
We want to touch base, see how you are going and how we can help. 
If you have any questions or queries check the blog/Educa and then email
your class teacher. We are here to help. 

Literacy
Monday and Wednesday are reading focus days. 
On Tuesday and Thursday, we will focus on writing.
We will send home some little activities and ideas for you to use the
reading resources we sent home at the end of Term 1. 
You will also receive ideas about how to encourage your child to write at home.
Lexia will be used to support their literacy development. 
We don’t want to see children on Lexia for more than 15 minutes a day.
Our children learn better through real-world play and activity.

Maths
We will include a maths challenge in the bingo board of activities each week. 
You also have Maths-Whizz to support maths learning and development.
Again, we don’t want to see kids on Maths-Whizz for more than 15 minutes a day.
There are many play activities that encourage and develop maths thinking. 

We miss all of the beautiful smiling faces of our Kakano students.
Hopefully it won't be too long before we can all be together again at school. 
Please, let us know if you need any support or guidance.
We look forward to working alongside you in this unusual learning adventure.
