What's Happening in Prep B!

This term in Prep B we celebrated our 100 days of school. The students were very excited getting all dressed up and participating in fun activities such as decorating biscuits and creating crowns.

In English we have been focusing on rhyme. Each week we have looked at a new rhyming story and identified the rhyming pairs. Students have shown a great interest in the rhyming stone table.

In Maths our focus so far has been positional language and addition. We have loved being able to use the dice and manipulatives to create our own addition stories.

In Science we have been investigating how different objects move such as rolling, bouncing, spinning and sliding. Students have loved having control of these lessons, finding different objects in the classroom and discussing the properties they have and how that affects the way it moves.

In HASS we have been looking at features of maps. We read the book ‘We’re going on a bear hunt’ and discussed features for our map. Everyone then had a go at creating their own map based on the storyline of the book.
