SECOND FIELD TRIP

Agraria University 2 on PhotoPeach
First Field Trip
Kids were excited for this field trip. They enjoyed it a lot. They had fun and spent a great day at Agraria University reinforcing the themes they learned in Science. Themes like parts of the plants and their needs. The guides, students of the university, were really good at explaining every topic and solving kids doubts.
Plants are living things. They grow, change and reproduce. They need air, soil, water, light, and space to grow. Plants need soil. Water and minerals are taken from the soil through roots. Soil also provides support for the plant and an anchor for the roots to grow in. Plants need sunlight in order to grow properly. They use light energy to change the materials - carbon dioxide and water into food substances (sugars). This process of food productions is called photosynthesis. Only in light can a green plant make food. Plants need water. Plants use water to carry nutrients from the roots to their leaves and food from the leaves back down to the roots. Plants must also have space in order to grow. If the space is small, the plants will be small and stunted. Big plants need big spaces for their roots and branches.

FATHER'S DAY

Father’s Day comes once a year on the third Sunday of June. Father’s Day means a great many things to a great many people. But most of us will agree that Father’s Day means the day in which you celebrate your Dad’s existence. Father’s Day is the day you bring your Dad a little gift. It’s the day we all say “Thank you for being there, Dad! Thanks for everything you did, and for just being you!” Your Dad is sure to be very glad that you care enough about him to get him anything at all!

Kids in grade two OTTERS dedicated some time to learn the poem above and to prepare very nice cards.  They were excited and decorated with lot of emotion.

SONGS

During this term kids have learnt some songs to improve their fluency and pronunciation. It surprised me how fast they could learn the songs. They showed their creativity adding some movements to have fun while singing.

WELCOME BACK TERM 2

It's time to come back!
Dear Otters it's time to come back to school. I missed you a lot. Working with you during the first term was awesome and I'm sure it will be much better during the second term. I hope this week of vacation you had enough time to rest and spend time with your family.

This term you will learn lots of new things, we are going to learn new songs, poems, as well as new stories which I'm sure you will enjoy.
