As we head into the October holiday, we would like to wish all our families a safe, relaxing and enjoyable break. We hope you have plenty of time to rest, spend time together and make wonderful memories.<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">Unit of Inquiry<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">We continued exploring our unit, <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">How We Organise Ourselves<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">, focusing on community spaces and how they support people&#8217;s wellbeing. The children worked with shapes to design their own community spaces and thought about how these spaces can benefit people, plants and animals. We also enjoyed listening to the children present their cultural boxes and share special parts of their identities and cultures.<\/span><\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">English<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">In English, we explored adjectives and how they can make our writing more interesting. The children worked in pairs to create poems inspired by community spaces. During our morning meetings, we also practised building interesting sentences by identifying nouns and adding adjectives to describe them.<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">Mathematics<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">Our mathematicians became more of shape detectives this week! Through our maths stations, the children explored 2D shapes, investigated their properties and used their mathematical thinking to solve different challenges.<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">Mental Health Week<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">As part of Mental Health Week, the children created worry dolls and reflected on their feelings and worries. This was a lovely opportunity to encourage conversations about emotions and explore ways we can support our own wellbeing and care for others.<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">Over the October Holiday<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">We encourage the children to enjoy a well-deserved break, spend time outdoors, read for pleasure and share their holiday adventures with family and friends. Little moments of reading, counting and conversation can help keep learning alive without taking away from the fun of the holiday!<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">Thank you, as always, for your continued support and partnership. We look forward to welcoming everyone back refreshed and ready for another exciting term of learning.<\/span><\/h6>\n<h6><span style=\"font-weight: 400;color: #000000\">Wishing you all a safe, happy and enjoyable October holiday!\u00a0<\/span><\/h6>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/drive.google.com\/drive\/folders\/1yEoIhGdnpF5b3oCmktjimPdQqu3xEiwD?usp=sharing\"><span style=\"color: #33cccc\"><strong>PHOTOS WEEK 8<\/strong><\/span><\/a><\/p>\n<h6><span style=\"color: #000000\"><span style=\"font-weight: 400\">Warm regards,<\/span><span style=\"font-weight: 400\"><br \/>\n<\/span><\/span><\/h6>\n<p><span style=\"color: #000000\">Cami<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Dear Families, We have had a lovely week in Grade 2C CATS, filled with creativity, collaboration and learning!
