Team teaching at R.C.P.S Last week on Wednesday, 1F and 2K came together for some team teaching and collaborative learning. Stage 1 are investigating the Living World in Science this term. Year 1 and Year 2 buddied up together and looked at moving insects in soil and observed how they move. We used magnifying glasses and cotton buds to explore the physical structures of living things. It was a really fun afternoon being clever scientists!

In Term 2, 2K and 5/6C joined together for a joint mindfulness meditation session in our school hall. It was lead by Ms Castle who brought in her sound bowl and taught us to focus on our everyday breath through calm and deep breathing. 2K brought in their soft toys as breathing buddies watching their belly rise and fall. It was a beautiful collaboration between both Stage 3 and Stage 1 classes. They kick started the day with rejuvenation and renewed alertness, which helped everyone feel more engaged with their learning.

We love the class partnerships and team teaching that occur at Ropes Crossing Public School and will continue to have fun joint learning experiences.
