Play Inquiry Update

This week, students selected their Play Inquiry focus areas that they will be investigating for the remainder of the term.

Sia will be scaffolding students' learning of change in groups comprising of: Cartooning; ICT; 3-D Box Panels and Natural Collections.

Sheryal will be exploring change and means of communicating change through Music, Movement and Drama

Elke will be exploring scientific ideas of change through experiments involving Materials & Decomposition; Life Cycles; Planting and Weather patterns.

Please view the Play Inquiry Board in the Hall area to see which area of interest you child/ren have selected.

Currently, I am collecting 2 Litre clear bottles to conduct experiments (with lids). If you are recycling these at home, could you instead pass them on to Elke?

Parent helpers are welcome to assist in the morning sessions of Play Inquiry (Mondays, Wednesdays and Fridays) and for reading every afternoon from 12:10 pm Mondays-Thursdays. Please let your Home group teacher know which day/s you are willing to assist and remember to sign in and sign out at the completion of your time in the classroom.
