Term 2

Welcome back to Term 2 everyone.  Hope you all had a lovely holiday.  The value for Term 2 is Honesty.  Honesty is always speaking the truth and admitting when you have made a mistake.

For Inquiry Learning, we will be learning and investigating about the Samoan Culture.  

On Mondays, we take home our spelling lists and homework for the week.  Our homework is due on Friday and are spelling tests are on Fridays.

A good strategy to learn your spelling words is to:

1. LOOK

2. SAY

3. COVER

4. WRITE

Poetry in Room 26

Room 26 wrote some Awesome Sense Poems on Popcorn and Fruits in Week 11.  We used our five Sense Senses when writing the poems.

Sense Poem on Apples by Sani
Apple like a read and green round moon.
Apples feel like a hard rock.
Apple sounds like a chewing gum in my mouth.
Apples smell like juice.
Apples taste sweet and divine, but it is very crunchy.


Sense Poem on Popcorn by Alexis
Popcorn
Popcorn looks like little, yellow ducks.
Popcorn feels squishy.
Popcorn sounds crunchy in my mouth.
It smells like buttery mustard.
It tastes sugary with icing sugar.
