Speaking & Listening Task – Term 1

All students will need to present a 2-5 minute presentation on the topic: What makes me special?


Presentations will be held in Week 5 and may be in the form of a power point or poster, and palm cards are encouraged. This will mean in Week 4 there is no Spelling or Mental Maths homework.

Assembly – Friday 5th March 2021

Dear Parents/Caregivers,

On Friday 5th March from 8:50am, Room’s 12, 16 and 19 will be hosting the Senior Assembly in the undercover area.


As part of our assembly item we would like all students to dress in hip hop/funky clothing, as we will be performing a figurative language rap song. We will be practising in class and a copy of the lyrics can be found here.


To access the song please type in 'Figurative Language Rap Song' on YouTube.


Students will need to bring their school uniform to change into after the assembly.


Kind Regards,


Miss McKercher

Welcome Year Fours!

Welcome to Room 19’s blog.

 

While the school year had an unpredictable start, we have had a fantastic start to 2021. Primarily, the first couple of weeks are about setting standards, establishing routines and revision of previous concepts and skills. It is very pleasing to see so many students completing the ‘Motivational Work’ at home and to see their eagerness to start Literacy Pro. All students have now completed a Literacy Pro Test and are ready to begin reading books and completing quizzes at their Lexile Level. The link for Literacy Pro can be found under the ‘Extra online activities and resources’ tab above.

 

I will be updating the blog regularly to keep you updated on what we are doing in class as well as any upcoming events or information you need. I am looking forward to the exciting year ahead and seeing each student achieve their goals. If you have any questions, please come and see me. 

 

Thank you, Miss McKercher
