Hmm where should I start...

Wow! It has been a crazy couple of weeks for year 2.

In week 7 and 8 we focused on Poetry. After reading an Australian favourite 'Edward the Emu' by Sheena Knowles we wrote our own poems about our favourite animals. It was more tricky than we expected. 

In Maths we have been very busy and have measured the area of numerous shapes in the classroom. We were very clever and found that we could use repeated addition.

Here we are finding the area of shapes.





In Religion we have been exploring how the Church uses symbols to communicate God’s love and grace. We had a lovely learning experience where we were taken on a spiritual journey and reflected on the signs of God’s love in our lives. We wrote a litany of thanks and shared our responses to the class.


For Creative Arts we have become musicians, dancers and have just begun Drama. We have just learnt how to play the Mexican Hat Dance using percussion instruments and it was also our first time at learning the steps. As you can see we still need some practice but I know we can do it in time for when Miss Seymour comes back! 




P.S. I wonder if anyone can tell Miss Stroligo the answer to this joke..
How do you make 'one' vanish?
