Welcome to term 3!
It is great to see everyone back looking healthier than the end of last term. Everyone has enjoyed catching up with their friends again in Room 1. We have a new friend, Jackson, who will be with us for the next two weeks.
Another busy term on the way, for both teachers and students.
In maths we will be starting with Statistics, then moving on to Fractions, Proportions and Ratios part of the Number strand.
For writing we are beginning with recount writing - telling stories about ourselves. Later this term we will use what we have learnt to write factual reports/recounts.
A big focus will be swimming which begins at Huia Pool in week 3 (15 August) for two weeks. We will be swimming every day.
I will also look to use some of the skills I learnt at the ICT conference the staff went to in the first week of the holidays in class.
