Update from Room 8 - and a huge thank you!

 

Congratulations to Coco, Levi and George, this week's certificate winners. These three bring such enthusiasm and work ethic to our classroom. This was reflected in their attitudes towards cross country, production practices and other learning this week.

A big thank you to all of our parents who came along for our walk to the cross country, and supported us during the race. We appreciate you making the effort to be involved.

Congratulations to Jarvis, Remy and Marcella, who all finished in the top six in their respective races. Remy, Jarvis and George were part of the Owairaka football team who entered the top grade tournament earlier in the week, and impressed on and off the field during the tournament.

So many wonderful achievements! For the class learning side of things, try asking our learners about:

- The story of Wairaka, and their mural artworks

- Problem Solving, and the number of faces, vertices and edges in 3D shapes

- How important it is to know all of your times tables up to 12 by the end of the year

- Whether they handed in their completed reading and maths booklets for home learning this week (Ms Judy was disappointed by how few students completed theirs.)

- How to add supporting details about characters, and how to show readers time and setting in writing

Have a safe and happy weekend everyone.
