International Day

Well, what a lovely time we had. We walked around the school and saw all the other children (and a lot of parents). We sat under a giant wobbly blue sheet and listened to the choir and the cast of Grease. We came back to class and enjoyed the food from different parts of the world. We listened to Anmar play the guitar so that he could achieve one of his targets. And the best part of all was that we still had time for a spelling test! Enjoy the photos.

Today's Homework

1. Daily Maths 3
2. Reading - we're getting our reading records signed more often now. Keep it up!
3. Spelling - learn your spellings, choose 5 new words, write your sentences

Remember. I n t e r n a t i o n a l D a y ! Clothes! Food! Fun!

Today's Homework

1. Times table square - remember to record the time as well as how many you got correct.
   
2. Abacus PCM p. 8 & 11
3. Reading - your job is to ask your parents to sign the record. Their job is to sign it. Every day.
   
4. Island Homework 3 - you are writing a play script about meeting the people from the island. You need to include the features of a play such as character names on the left, stage directions and a scene location. The ideas on the paper are just suggestions; you can write much more than that, at least 2 pages I think. Imagine what the island people might say. Why do they want to find you? Are they friendly? Do you speak their language? Where do you go with them?

Remember, it's International Day on Wednesday so you need to start thinking about what clothes to wear and what food to bring. You should try to wear something that is traditional and particular to your country, not just what everyone normally wears.
