Monday 2 February 2015

Welcome to Room 7



What a great start to the year. This is going to be a very busy term with a lot of things happening.

Please check out our class blog and school facebook / website for extra information. This is where a lot of information about our class and school will be.

Stationary
I would like all students to have their stationary as soon as possible or at least by the end of this week. It is essential that we start setting up and using our books.
Swimming
We will be having structured swimming lessons during school time in Term One and Swimming Instructors in during weeks 3-5. Please check and make sure your child has their togs and towel every day. With our poor drowning statistics in New Zealand it is important our children can swim and stay safe.
Homework
Homework will start in Week 3.
 

What is happening in Room 7 this week?

Writing
This week we are working on writing complete paragraphs and making sure they have our capital letters and full stops where they should be. We are also looking at adding detail and extra description into our writing. We will start to add writing on to our class writing blog.
Reading
For reading this week we are focusing on being about to add detail when summarising a story. We are learning to write information we have read into our own words and make sure it the important details of who, what, where, when, why and how.
Maths
We are looking at using different stratgies for addition and subtraction and revisiting Place Value. We are also starting to focus on our times tables.
Topic – Our School Values and Expectations
This week we will be revisiting our school values (Excellence, Pride and Spirit) and our expectations. These expectatiuon are seen around the school.
 
Have a great week.

Mr Dufty
