Dear Parent(s)/ Caregivers
I am very excited about teaching your children this term. It is going to be a productive term
packed with learning.
For home learning,
children will receive a home
learning sheet, which will include
spelling, and Basic Facts to practise daily. There will be no spelling this week as
I will be testing them to determine their level.
Your child will be given a reader
each night, and I am hoping you will find the time to listen to your son or
daughter read aloud to you. Please sign their Reading
Log each night.
On occasions, tasks may be given to them that are relevant to what
we are learning in class.
Notices for the week will be put into their
home learning sheet.
Home learning is to be handed in on Friday.
This is what we are focusing on this
term:
Writing: Narratives, Recounts and Poetic
writing
Maths: Addition and subtraction and
Statistics
Health: Sun Smart, Life Education, Swimming
and Boat Safety
Reading: Fiction and Non Fictional Text
PE: Striking and Fielding
(soccer) Co-operative
games
Maori: Marae visit and protocols
Drama: plays
Music: Marae songs
Visual Arts: Carvings and Ceramics
As this term is going to be warmer I think it is important for
student to bring a water bottle and they will be able to have this on their
desk during class time. A sun hat is also recommended.
The students will be given an opportunity to have a “snack
attack” during the first block, before morning tea. This snack must be a healthy.
If you ever have any questions I am more than happy to answer
them. Either arrange a time to meet with me through the office, or e mail me at
pauline@tokanui.school.nz
Thank you.
Pauline Cahill
