Welcome to week 3,
NAPLAN:
Last week the students
completed two of the four NAPLAN assessments. I was impressed with their concentration
and persistence through the writing and reading tests.
This Wednesday and Thursday we
have the Language Conventions and Numeracy assessments. Please make sure that
your child has their iPad and it is significantly charged.
Bright
Paths PD
Just a reminder that on Friday 24th May, there
will be a pupil free day as the teacher's will be involved in a Bright Paths
PD.
Homework:
If your child is struggling
with some of the concepts in their maths homework, please get them to come and
see me during gathering time in the morning. We have 15 minutes every morning
where I can go through some of the work 1 on 1.
Book
fair:
The
book fair will be held in the library this week on Tuesday 21st and Wednesday
22nd of May.
The
students do get very excited at this time, could you please remind them that they
must be in the class by 8:40 and their purchases must be put in their bags
before coming to class.
Homework:
For those students that are still struggling to understand what the activities for spelling are, there is a success criteria on their Onenote.
