S2 News

S2 has been enjoying lots of hands-on activities with their Maths and Science programs.

In Maths we have looked at directions and placement concepts. We enjoyed using the Bee Bots to demonstrate directions that we drew from a hat. We also used the cardinal points of North, South, East and West to describe the pathway our Bee Bots were taking.

We continue to do experiments with circuits in Science. We are able to make circuits to produce a variety of sounds and movement. This week it was very frustrating as our batteries are losing strength. This helped us to discover the less components in a circuit, the less power it needs to produce a result.

We are currently finishing off our subject assessments. The students tell me they are “easy peasy lemon squeezy”.  I hope this is reflected in our report cards.

We are all looking forward to the colour fun run this week. Everyone is planning on getting very, very colourful.
