Length work

Welcome to Term 2 and a very special welcome to Andy and Joban who join Room 5.

We started our Keeping Ourselves Safe unit with a visit by our Community Constable who told us that is is really important to know our family name, address and suburb. We have practised this in class and ask that you keep practising this at home. There will also be other homework coming home over the next couple of weeks. This is an important part of this unit, so please spend some time completing this with your child. Thank you.


We have also learnt about length this week. We started the week learning about short and long by making play dough snakes.

 We went outside and used jump ropes to make short and long lengths and compared them to things in the playground. 



 Then we used the words long, longer, longest, shorter and shortest to compare rods and objects found  in the room. You could find compare objects at home to find out which things are longer and shorter than a book.







Next week our sounds of the week will be: oy, ow
The focus words will be: like, likes, with, am, the
