Stage 2 have been learning all about decimals. Today we put our brains and bodies to the test! We did some races and recorded our times to 2 decimal places. Then we did some hard thinking and ordered our numbers using our knowledge of decimals to see who was the fastest runner in Stage 2. Can you guess who it is? We also calculated the difference between the times of many runners using our skills of placing decimals on a number line. What a fun maths lesson!

🌊 Stage 2 Excursion to Narrabeen! 🌿 What an awesome day exploring the beach environment! We did an experiment to demonstrate beach erosion using our white tubs, got hands-on with weather instruments to check temperature, wind speed, direction, and humidity, and discovered fascinating plants and animals in the rock pools. And of course, we couldn’t resist having a splash at the water’s edge! A perfect day of learning and fun by the sea. ☀️🐚🌬️ #BeachDay #OutdoorLearning #Stage2Adventures #Narrabeen
