What a great start we have had in the Grade 6 classroom.

Leadership programs have begun across the school, with students running Daily PE and also thinking about their Student Council speeches for election, which will be held next Monday.

We have been working collaboratively to discuss our “ways of working” in the classroom and across the school, based on our school values of Respect, Resilience, Connectedness and Excellence. We have even managed to produce a Bitmoji for ourselves.

In English we have started talking about the importance of reading and in writing we are famous YouTube bloggers going on an epic snow adventure.

In Maths we have been working on some number challenges. As a class we are working on using the digits 2,0,2 and 5 and any operations to make the numbers 1-25. We are still trying to find a way to make 19 but we won’t give up.

In Science we are looking at the importance of fungi in the ecosystem and to our daily lives. We are hoping to go fungi hunting after the Autumn rains come. In HASS we are looking at immigration and the importance of this in Australian history.

We have settled back to school really well and we are looking forward to all the exciting learning opportunities that will be happening.
