Congratulations to Dia and Josh! They are the WINNERS of Tuesday's DOJO POINTS for excellent work. Thank you to everyone who shared... I wonder who it will be today?

 

  • Mrs Turner loved the the way that Dia showed all her working to the word problems by drawing pictures - just like her Spotlight Goal told her to.
  • Josh wrote a special acrostic poem about his cat Misty. I like the way he used a different colour for the letters down the side.
Last but not least - here is the picture of the awesome tower you guys made last week at school. It's taller than Gyana! But very messy to clean up after knocking it over...

TO DO:

  • Check and comment on the Class blog EVERY morning to see what we have put up. It might be a video or message from us, or some of your classmate’s work to comment on.
  • We will email your parents later as to when you are having a Google Meet this week with the login code, most likely Wednesday or Thursday.
  • We have shared a copy of the Distance Learning slides to your Google drive in your Inquiry folder.  This is where you will do all your school work please.

  • You all have devices and know how to use them very well because we have learned a lot this year already. If you need help reading the instructions, ask an adult or older sister or brother to help. It does not have to be perfect but always try your best. 
  • If for some reason you have forgotten your google drive email or password your parents can email me and I will send it to them. Remember all of you can access your school drive on any device with this email and password. 

Enjoy doing your learning at home and have fun. Remember your GEMS and I will see you soon online.
