Curriculum

Curriculum Overview: Term One

Religion:  We will create our class vision statement which is a set of statements that all children must follow in order to create a harmonious classroom environment.  These vision statements will be presented in a ceremony in the church.  We will also explore what life was like for Jesus growing up in the Jewish faith.

English:  As part of our English program we will work on developing phonemic awareness (letter and sound relationships), sight words, reading, comprehension, spelling and writing skills. Students will participate in Morning Talks to share information about themselves and their family.  They will write a character profile about themselves.  They will also listen to different narratives and discuss the events and characters.

Maths:  We will revise numbers 1-20 and extend on this to include the numbers 0-100.  Through our class calendar wall we will look at the days of the week, months and seasons.  We will also look at money and 2D shapes.

History:  Students will look at how they have changed over time.  As part of this unit children will be asked to bring in photos that will be used to create a timeline of their life.  They will be asked to comment on how they have changed in the photos. 

Science:  We will be starting our own garden so that students can learn to identify the  parts of the plant and explain the purpose of each part.  


Geography: Students will explore our school grounds and identify ways that we can care for an important place in our community

Regular updates of our learning journey will be posted on this site.
