Week 5
Class information
Health- We have started our unit on ‘Keeping Healthy’. We have been discussing what it means to be healthy and in particular focusing on the foods we eat. Students have been asked to please bring in any food labels from packaging at home for Tuesday’s lesson next week. Thanks to the students who have already brought some food labels in.
Passion Projects- Our preparation for our Passion Projects has well and truly begun. We have been working with Simone to discuss ‘fat’ and ‘skinny’ questions. Students are in the process of constructing their ‘fat’ question to research which will give them great scope for their project. We are all really excited about getting started with the research, particularly as students have selected a topic that they are really interested in.
Camp– We have booked our Yr 3/4 camp for 2017! We will be going with Rooms 11 and 16 to Narnu Farm in week 6 of Term 2, 7-9th of June. This is the week before the long weekend, which will give students a good amount of time to recover after the camp!
Studyladder- This week our class started using Studyladder. Studyladder is a web based educational program designed by teachers. The program is curriculum based and covers Mathematics, Literacy as well as other subjects. Your child has been given a username and password which can be used to access Studyladder at school or at home. It is not compulsory for your child to use Studyladder at home, however regular access will help them reinforce what they have been taught in school. It will also help to build their confidence through practice.
