Welcome to Levels 1 and 2 at Deepdene Primary School.
We aim to provide a happy, safe and stimulating learning environment which values play, co-operation and respect for individual differences, where students:
Literacy
The students will be provided with many opportunities to develop speaking and listening strategies so that they can interact confidently in individual, small group and whole class discussions.
The students will be introduced to a wide range of texts to foster an appreciation and enjoyment of literature; develop the skills necessary to read for information; and improve their writing skills.
Students are introduced to a variety of writing styles and learn to write for a range of purposes. We teach the students to write in various genres: e.g. letter writing, lists, instructions, reports, stories, poems, procedures etc. Grammar, spelling and handwriting are incorporated.
