They are also helping the students who are new to the school which is good to see.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We have been discussing our agreements for working together well in our new space and getting used to a busy timetable with lots of new opportunities and challenges. They are already showing that they have a better understanding of learning, taking care of their class and of each other.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Students have been showing me what they know or remember of their learning in English and Maths and displaying their speaking, listening, reading and writing skills. We have done some practical Maths and language games together with discussion and circle time games or brain- gym to keep us active and thinking well!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">I am so pleased to see how the students know the routines and regulations as we will be able to move on more rapidly with learning, building on previous knowledge. They are trying to be caring, cooperative and communicate in English.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We look forward to meeting parents next week to share more about the year ahead in Grade 2. Please kindly use the Seesaw link to connect to this valuable app which will show updates of student&#8217;s work but is also my main method for communicating with parents.<\/span><\/p>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Have a lovely, long weekend!<\/span><\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1_dDakB1neon0KRkcGn5EgmcuTyVVgcru?usp=drive_link\" rel=\"\">2B First School Week<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Welcome back to school!
