Kia Ora all

Welcome to week 3.
It's a bit shorter than usual with Monday being a public holiday.

Mathletics
A large group of students received mathletics certificates today. We are especially proud of Brook and Anneke who earned a GOLD certificate. Way to go, girls!

EXCELLENCE award winner

Well done to the awesome Savannah for receiving the Room 5 Excellence certificate at the kauri team assembly today. Savannah manages herself well on her learning tasks, and makes excellent choices about when she needs to seek support with a learning task from classmates, teacher or 'workshops'. These workshops are held on the mat for students who would like extra support with the current learning activity.

An excellent role model. Well done, Savannah.

Today we began with writing and focused on how to use speech marks correctly. We have a display board showing our writing goals for writing a narrative. You can view this below; it is also on our 'Writing' page.

Today we focused on speech marks. Did you know there are five basic rules that help us to use speech marks carefully?

Here is a picture of them; they are on display in the classroom.

We look forward to sharing our narratives with you.
