Super Scientist

In Term Two, the Super Scientist challenge will be in the form of an experiment. All students have been invited to research any experiment and present their information to the class in a short presentation (2 to 5 minutes) . Students are allowed to use resources such as posters, charts, props and PowerPoint to support their presentation. The Year Three class presentations will take place in Week 6 of Term 2. Each Year Three   class will select their finalists and they will move forward to the Year Level Super Scientist challenge. We look forward to seeing all the wonderful presentations! If you have any questions about the Super Scientist Challenge, please come and see me. Thank you for your ongoing support.

Here is a snapshot of what we have been up to. In Literacy, we have been focusing on key concepts from the curriculum. The students of Room 27 really enjoy Literacy rotations as it is an excellent way for them to collaborate with their peers. During these rotations, students have been developing their reading, spelling, editing for punctuation and comprehension skills. In Numeracy, we have currently been focusing on learning about time and money. The students have really enjoyed learning about the real world application of these skills and why they are so important. To extend on learning about money, the class bank has been a great incentive!
