Week 5 Update

Kia ora Whanau

The children enjoyed their swimming this week.  Swimming gets underway again in Week 7.  We will take a break from our Theme Park maths and get back into that in Week 8.

Next week on Monday and Wednesday we will work flat out on our Duality maps and Journals. The Spencer Park trip is on Tuesday and we go Fishing on Thursday.

I look forward to seeing you all at the Learning Conferences on Wednesday and Thursday.

Detailed plan for Week 6

Week 4 update and Week 5 plan

Kia ora Whanau

General

Thank you to all the parents who already booked their parent teacher interviews! And if you have not had the chance please go to schoolinterviews (site) and log in using the code emailed to you.

Hooray! Swimming is almost here! Remember that swimming starts in week 5 term 4, if you are not swimming please bring a note written by your parents the reason why, then hand it to Mr. Marsh ( Room 1 )

Congrats to all the children who are going to Zones.  Well done to all the 9 room 1 children who made it and the others!

Room 1’s fishing trip is coming! On 23 of November, thank you to all the parents that are willing to help the Room 1 children on our fishing trip.

                                                 Learning.

Maths- The senior syndicate is doing theme park maths, theme park maths is when you design your theme park on a grid piece of paper. Theme park maths helps us learn about profit & loss.

Journal- In room 1 we are making our own journals for are parents for christmas! Our journals will have 3-5 pages full of poems, stories, plays, narratives, articles etc.

Duality maps- We are creating duality maps so we can learn about our culture backgrounds. We have to compare the same topics like clothes, food, weather etc.

Passport- Passports are still here! Our ilam school passports are filled with fun kiwiana things to do with family, friends or just yourself! Remember there are kiwi passport badges and certificates that your teacher's hand out so get moving!
