Congratulations Room 7 on a wonderful year of learning in Year 2!

Thank you for being so amazing in Room 7 this year. I am going to miss you next year but you are ready for Year 3 and I know you will go on to do more great learning at EPS.

Keep using the EPS 3Rs in everything you do and you will go far.

I am learning to retell the main ideas and summarise what I have read

I am using a mind map to help me retell the main ideas from the non fiction text and summarise.


In my reading group we used the website Popplet to create this mind map. 



Have a go at home making your own mind maps on Popplet to help you retell  the main ideas and summarise non fiction text. It's lots of fun!

The 100 Days of School Party

Room 7 had a 100 days of school party.

There were 3 things to do.

Step 1 Ice the 100 cupcakes.

Step 2 Do the 100 exercises.

Step 3 Eat the 100 cupcakes!

My favourite exercises were the hula hoop and jump running. The end of the best party ever!
