Ms Courtney's Class

Prior Knowledge assessment This week students completed their prior knowledge assessment of themselves are a learning. We used My map book by to help us with some ideas. Students were asked to draw a map of themselves including all the parts of their bodies they use to learn and some places and ways they like to learn. We will revisit these maps at the end of the unit to see your growth. Seb's birthday On Tuesday we celebrated Seb's birthday! Happy Birthday Seb, we hope you had a fantastic day. Bio Poems The students have published their bio poems and uploaded them to Seesaw. The students worked hard to complete these and are a great insight into each student. Gardening Our second unit of inquiry is about how planets grow. We started this unit today by planting some vegetables in the garden. Hopefully by the time we officially start the unit we will be able to see our carrots and corn growing. Homework Thank you for sharing your children...

What an amazing week we have had in Grade 2. The students have all settled in so well, we welcomed three new students to ISPP on Monday, Akrai, Seb and Leah. The students have started swimming, PE, Art and Music lessons. They have also begun their foreign language or Mother tongue classes. In the classroom we have spent a lot of time getting to know each other, learning how to use Seesaw and setting up routines for the year. Thank you for coming to the Hopes and Concerns meetings over Thursday and Friday. These are valuable meetings and I appreciate your openness and honesty during them. On Wednesday we celebrated Molly's 7th Birthday! Happy Birthday Molly.
