Friday – Work for the Day

Today your work will be the same as I already had written up on the whiteboard for the day. Most of the work and finishing off work is where it usually is, on the handing-in table under the whiteboard. The Maths sheets and Earth booklets are on the blue cupboard next to it.

For Spelling Contracts, do the next activity on your contract. Please take home your orange booklets with spelling words and we will get extra words for our next list instead. You need to learn your words for next Friday’s spelling test on List 4. Work hard!

When doing the Inquiry activity, you will need to watch the videos on the post below this that we didn’t get to see yesterday, showing the different sizes of the planets.

You will also find the information you need to complete the last page of your Earth booklets on KIDCYBER – PLANET EARTH. (Please try to finish all the work in your Earth booklets.)

Next week we need to work in our inquiry groups to find out all about Earth as our very own special planet, so you need to have ALL your other pieces of work FINISHED!

Daily Work Pad for Tuesday 22 May

Welcome to our relief teacher. Sorry that I am not well but here is your work for the day.

Please could you send a runner to the other classrooms to collect any more responses for our Cancer Council morning tea tomorrow. These need to go home with Samara Jackman (or her Mum, Sue Jackman, when she comes in. She may also bring in the daffodil template and yellow paper for photocopying. Please could Liz photocopy these for tomorrow. We will need at least 100 of these, maybe more (check with Sue Jackman). Thank you.

Please remind everybody now and at the end of the day to bring in their food which has been promised tomorrow morning, and to bring a gold coin donation for our fundraiser! Thanks. 🙂
