We have been learning new strategies in numeracy for addition and subtraction. We have learned the jump strategy, the rounding and compensating strategy and the split strategy. As a class, we much prefer the split strategy although we really like ‘chimney’ sums too!

In PE, we have been cross-country, tabata and orienteering. We have really enjoyed them all.

We have started Spanish and been learning the days of the week and months of the year which we have really enjoyed!

We are looking forward to our topic about Mexico next term!

We are also looking forward to using the numeracy wall and playing some new numeracy games.

Next term we are playing footgolf in PE!

We hope you have a super October break!
