Liam was a star at Monday morning prayer, where he read the Gospel, as he stepped up for the reader who was not at school. What a great job you did, Liam.
Cross Country: There is a separate post with all the details from the newsletter. Thank you Vanessa for offering to help with the class at the cross country course - due to very few children having appropriate clothing, and only 1 parent available to assist with supervision, the training run was cancelled. We still need some parents to assist as marshals on the course on Wednesday.
School Sports uniform Tuesday (gymnastics) and Wednesday (cross country).
Mass 9:00 Wednesday.
Assembly 2:10 Friday
Ski notices went home on Friday. I have had confirmation from 3 parents. Please check bags if these have not been given to you.
Homework
- Reading: don't forget to record what you have read in your log. Sunshine-on-line books also count!
- Spelling: looking at the 'er' spelling patterns. never, thirty, burst, dollar, earth, word. Look out for these in what is being read. Taking notice of these will help us to transfer what we know into our writing, where we are learning to sample words, then look at them as a good reader and choose the one that looks right.
- Maths Buddy: enjoy free use of this site. We will be asking towards the end of the year whether this is a site to pay for next year.
- Learning to type: try 'dance mat typing' www.bbc.co.uk/typing Knowing where the keys are on the computer will help with spelling as well as speeding up publishing of work. We also have questions for Inquiry "How do people type without looking? How do they know where the keys are?"
- Kapahaka: Poi - work on those wrist strengthening exercises that Ms Tamati has given you. You do not need a poi to work on these. Make sure that it is your wrist not your arm moving. Remember to keep your arms out straight. 50 up, 50 down and 50 to the side. Work on catching 10 times remembering how to hold the poi between your thumb and fore finger.
