Learning at Craigslea

This semester is quickly passing by as we are now over halfway through Term 3.  The students are busy consolidating their skills and knowledge and learning new concepts from across the curriculum areas.  Below are some samples from the P-2 sector of the school.

Rhyme Time in Prep
Prep students are working hard on their phonemic awareness and identifying rhyming words in simple poems.  Students are consolidating their understanding of letters and sounds and how they go together to make words.  They have also been working hard on their sentence structure and punctuation.  Have a look at some of the rhyming sentences our Prep students have created.

Year 1 Authors
The year one students have been reading a range of stories with animals characters who have human qualities. Wanted, Ralfy Rabbit Book Thief and Bears Don't Read are just some stories they have been enjoying. They have been creating character descriptions with images. 

Persuasive Year 2
The year two students have been working on their power of persuasion. Once all their learning is completed, they will be writing a persuasive letter to Mrs Canavan about an environmental issue at the school.
