This year there are 3 teachers in Te Ako Kahikatea: Mr J, Ms H and Miss Speir. Things are working a little differently this year, so this blog is here for you to check in on any news, updates, homework or student work. Here are a few housekeeping rules before we start:
Homework: Homework will be put on the blog every Monday, and is able to be completed at any point during the week. It is expected that each student is reading for at least 20 minutes each night, as well as completing some kind of basic facts practice either online through selected websites or by hand in a workbook. The additional task we ask you to complete will always relate to what is going on in the class, which you are able to complete in any way that suits you.
Updates: Throughout the term the teachers of Te Ako Kahikatea will select student work and tasks to be uploaded to the blog. Students are welcome to submit work to be posted to the blog!
Comments: Parents, students and others from the school community are encouraged to comment on the blog with any queries they may have about posts, or feedback about student work. All comments get moderated by the teachers and no anonymous posts or comments will be accepted.
THIS WEEK'S HOMEWORK
Our inquiry focus this term is 'Does Junk Food Kill?". To get us started, we are going to start having a look at what is in our food. For your homework this week please bring in as many empty, clean food or drink packets/containers for us to analyse. Have a great first week of term!
Miss Speir, Mr J and Ms H
