Books For Friday - please

On Friday I need to have all poetry books and homework books back at school so that we can start off fresh for a very busy term 3.

There are still some people who have these books at home somewhere and it makes it very difficult for your child to keep up to date, when the book that needs work put into it, is at home.

We have all been to the library and most people had made a fantastic effort to have the overdue books back, so they have some exciting reading for the holidays.

There is spelling this week and yes it will be tested on Friday.  The spelling can be found in the homework book and needs to be tooled every night.  Some groups have words with apostrophes in them and they are aware that these are necessary if the word is to be marked correct on Friday.

Today there is a small pile of reading folders still in the box in the classroom.  Every child knows that they need to put them directly into their bags after reading - maybe it was too chilly to go to the corridor today.  Feel free to send your child back to get their book bag if they forget - I am usually here till after 5pm.  We are working on self managing skills.
