Welcome back - Term 2 2020

Welcome back to Term 2 2020.  It’s a wee bit different this term - we have
had to make some changes.  This term our concept is ADAPTABILITY -
how and why do things change. We will send a Bingo Board of activities
for you each week. It is not expected that you will complete ALL activities
every week. Have a go at 3-4 in the week and be sure to share some of
your learning to Educa.  

All learning activities will be posted to Educa for you and your child to
access. The class blog will be used to share nuts and bolts information
with parents and to celebrate home learning success.  Teachers will be
contacting students over the next little while. We want to touch base,
see how you are going and how we can help. If you have any questions
or queries check the blog/Educa and then email your class teacher.
We are here to help. 

Literacy
Monday and Wednesday are reading focus days.  On Tuesday and
Thursday, we will focus on writing. We will send home some little activities
and ideas for you to use. These will use the reading resources we sent
home at the end of term 1. You will also receive ideas about how to
encourage your child to write at home.

Lexia will be used to support their literacy development. We don’t want
to see kids on Lexia for more than 15 minutes a day. Our children learn
better through real-world play and activity. Find real world ways to revise/
practice their Lexia learning.

Maths
We will include a maths challenge in the bingo board of activities each
week.  You also have Maths Whizz to support maths learning and
development. Again, we don’t want to see kids on Maths Whizz for more
than 15 minutes a day. There are many play activities that encourage and
develop maths thinking. 

We miss all of the beautiful smiling faces of our Kakano students. Please,
let us know if you need any support or guidance. We look forward to
working alongside you in this unusual learning adventure.
