Home Learning Wk2

I think the run of good weather we have been having may be coming to an end...I hope you all had a good weekend anyway.

Don't forget to hand in your skiing notice ASAP please.

Here are this weeks home learning links

SPELLING

Spelling response form

MATHS

Continue to focus on an area of need (as identified from your report). Find the task that you need to complete and go for it! Make sure you put the evidence in your Drive. Or if you are beginning a new area of study, complete a comprehensive test and ring the evidence to Mr Wood to put in the maths report folder

GRAMMAR

Last week we began work on adverbs. Here's another wee activity. DON'T FORGET TO MAKE A COPY STRAIGHT AWAY. File in SPELLING please!

Welcome Back!

Welcome back. It's been great to have such nice weather. Long may it continue. There are LOADS of cool things this term to look forward to, like: PrEP, SKIING & The ART SOIREE. This Friday we even have our own COM GAMES happening. By the way...I noticed that I still have an awful lot of skking notices still on the pile! They were there Wk 8 last term! If you want to go, get organised!

Maths

Last term I shared a google doc with you that linked all the things you need to do in maths (for your report) to get some more 'green'. Have a go one of those activities. Don't forget to save the evidence in your drive. Perhaps make a folder called Maths Report evidence.

Reminders

One last reminder...BRUNNER MINE THIS THURSDAY!!! I am still waiting on notices and money! Please can I have this tomorrow at the latest otherwise we may have to cancel!

Interim reports will go out this THURSDAY and student-led conferences are on Monday & Tuesday. Times will go out on Thursday.

Speeches will be held in class next week and I really want these done well an on time so NO HOMEWORK (I am a bit worried that there are many who have not used their time wisely).

However...If you want to practice your maths or re-do any old weeks of spelling...go ahead.

A notice went out on Friday for those in the LIP crew to ask their parents to fill in a VERY SHORT survey. I have had no responses! Please remind your parents. Here is the link

I am out of the class (again) today, as well as until lunchtime tomorrow. Here is the Planner

Good luck to Luke who is away representing us at the Lit Quiz Nationals.

Classroom speeches are week 9 and because this can get a bit stressful, there is only spelling and maths practice for the next 3 weeks, so that time can be given to your presentations. You can either use a poster as a visual aid or a Google presentation. Either way, please do not read off it...it should be just a guide. You speech is just a talk and should be different every time you say it.
