In Prep M we have been identifying 2D shapes and sorting them by shape, sides and vertices. We had lots of fun creating our own 2D shape monsters.

2M

Show me the money!


Over the next couple of weeks, our class is revising Australian money and making sure we know how much each coin and note is worth. This is very important, especially for those with older brothers or sister who might ‘cash in’ on any financial illiteracy!


We’ll be choosing the correct money to go shopping, counting collections, and making a specific amount using the least number of coins and notes……future financial analysts and accountants in the making perhaps?

3C

The students have had lots of fun re-enacting the relationship between the sun, the earth and the moon. They conducted a role play of how the earth orbits the sun, while the moon orbits the earth. We had minimal collisions, so Earth is safe... for now.
