Term 1 Class News

Week 6

Year 2 (aka ‘wildcats’) have become a very busy and productive group for 2009.  We have been busy planting lavender and tulips as well as some rock melon by Aliza.  Our classroom is starting to feel like a little home, thanks to the pillows that were shipped up by Kallan’s nan.   I am extremely proud of the butterfly descriptions that the children have published and am happy with Year 2’s progress at skipping.  Lastly, I would like to thank all of the children and parents for being so welcoming.  It has made the move to Denman extremely easy.

Week 3

Wildcats had an excellent end of Term 1 with the excursion to the Shortland Wetlands.  All students had a fantastic time and represented Denman Public well.   Wildcats were lucky enough to get a close up look at the large Eel spotted by Cody.   Wildcats welcome Grace and Montanna to our class.   Both girls have settled in well and are doing well.   Wildcats have also adjusted to having library and computers on Thursday mornings instead of Wednesday.   Mrs Zoneff can’t wait to see what students find out about Olden Day Toys.

Term 2 has already been extremely busy with Cross Country Milo Sport and Public Speaking, so we are sure to have another great term in the Wildcats classroom.

Week 11

Wildcats have had another great term of learning and I am very proud of the achievements and efforts of all students. Last Friday we said goodbye to Miss Cowan, a student teacher from Newcastle University. Learning was fun with Miss Cowan for the four weeks, cooking cakes and doing a lot of work with money. We discovered that Jack  may well be a chef in the future with his excellent stirring skills. The Wildcats have also been working on their “narratives” and the stories have been sensational. Heidi’s story about the two boys “trick or treating” was very scary and entertaining to read. We are still working on our class goal to get our games afternoon, and are feeling sure we will get those last few ticks before the end of term.

Term 3 is looking very exciting. I can’t wait to see how much the Wildcats will grow and learn.

Week 8

The Wildcats have continued to work really hard during Term 3.  We have been learning about Transport and many students have bought in their fabulous projects.  Well done guys!  

We have also been looking at Procedures and the students have been making some interesting things. Also this term Wildcats have settled into the new sport rotation and are enjoying learning about many sports. There are many talented sportsmen and sportswomen amongst us.

Finally, big congratulations to the “Wildcat” spelling bee finalists, Montanna, Georgia, Kallan and Lachlan. You all did extremely well. They put in a great effort and did their class proud.
