SEMESTER 2 2021
Semester 2 was a little different this year…. completing most of our learning remotely! 3/4E have done such an amazing job adapting to working online and I am super proud and happy with the wonderful work students have produced on Google Classroom (GC). They have developed a range of skills and abilities during this challenging time.
We dived straight into Term 3, learning about the Tokyo Olympics and this was a favourite part of remote learning. We were able to utilise the Olympics across a variety of subjects, from English to geography to visual arts to maths. Students enjoyed dressing up in Zoom to represent their country of origin and designing new Olympic Sports for Brisbane 2032.
In English we have been focusing on:
For our maths lessons, we have continued our learning path to build skills around a range of mathematical concepts, from using differentiated Google Sheets to show whole numbers, addition and subtraction with trading, multiplication and division, fractions and decimals to measuring length, volume and mass. I was really impressed with the students who resubmitted their work after making corrections to their work.
Students have also visited China, Madagascar and Brazil as part of our geography unit on Earth’s Environment and we are now venturing to the unknown planet of Zog in our ‘Space Invaders’ science unit where we focus our learning on living things.
While most of us learned from home, Zoom kept us connected as a class twice a day. Students looked forward to guessing what costume I would be wearing each day or to join in drawing and interactive games. We cannot wait to be back in class where we can work together, debate topics, listen to others, and most importantly, see everyone's happy faces in real life. What an adventure we have been on so far!

We choose to recognise the Wangal People of the Eora Nation as the true owners of the land on which we stand: of the sky above and of the water that surrounds us. We thank the Elders, both of the past and the present, who are the traditional custodians of this country and we promise to care for the land and respect it as they have done. As we play and learn together, we extend that respect to all Aboriginal people here today.
