Even though I wasn’t here
to start the new term with you, I am very impressed with the positive attitude most
of you are already showing to your class work and homework. Most children have
stickers for week one on both our Homework chart and Great Choices chart. Unfortunately,
gold class awards look like they are going to be hard to come by, again, this
term, which highlights the importance of having our own system to reward all those
children who cause few, or no, problems in the classroom and playground.
Congratulations to Brooklyn, Jake, Kendyl, Liam, Emily and
Sharnteigh (and a few dads!!) who were the only people who completed the
Maths task on geometrical language. Two PPAs for those people. Consequently,
the maths homework is the same this week which means those children who have
already done it, have less homework. J Congratulations
to Emily, Brooklyn, Brodie, Kendyl,
Liam, Cameron and Angus who are taking on the challenge of The Primary
Research Project, starting from today and continuing until Friday 23 May. Their
reward is not having to do normal homework,J but I expect them to do the Keeping Ourselves Safe
worksheets.
Extra homework this
week will include worksheets connected to the Keeping Ourselves Safe topic.
Please do these as it is important that parents are aware of what is being
covered in class. An optional extra task is to design a bookmark for one of the
NZ Post book awards finalists. I hope all children will go on to the www.nzpostbookawards.co.nz website
to vote for a book so they will be in with a chance to win great prizes.
