Term 1 Newsletter, 2015
Thursday 5th
February
Dear Parents and
Caregivers,
Welcome back to school
everyone and a special hello to all our new year 2 children! I’m sure that we
will have a really wonderful learning time together this year. We currently have
17 children in the class.
Our major curriculum
focuses this term will include: Number (Maths), Surf Aware (a Social Science,
P.E. and Science unit), Swimming (PE)-followed by Swimming Sports at the Event Centre on the evening of Thursday 5th
February. We will also be doing a
variety of other topics and units throughout the term.
Our first school trip
will be to Ngarunui Beach, Raglan, on
Friday 20th February for the Surf Aware Programme.
Our homework and class
routines this term will include:
School readers home on Monday to Thursday (no
book bag, no book).
Poem folders for weekend reading.
Maths homework we will be doing basic facts and counting only for the
next 4 weeks, see the attached sheet or Year 2 starter kit.
Library book exchange on Friday afternoon
before assembly.
Swimming togs (in a waterproof
bag) are needed every day this term.
Your child is welcome
to bring a named water bottle to keep in the classroom. These should be taken
home every day to clean and refill.
Please feel free to
contact me if you are unsure of anything.
See you all soon!
Debbie van Dorsten
The following lists
are Maths Basic Facts. Please spend the next 4 weeks helping your child to
become fluent with these number sentences for their maths homework rather than
the homework book. Year 2 children are to work on their counting numbers in the
kit first.
It is important that your child knows the facts
within 5 and 10 as soon as possible.
By the end of Year
2 children are expected to know
all of the Stage 4 facts. Year 3 children will also need to know the 2x,
5x and 10x tables (Stage 5).
