Week 10

Hi Rm 14,

Its less than 7 days until the school holidays start!  I'm guessing you are probably like me - looking forward to being able to chill out a little bit more than normal and perhaps even sleep in a bit longer in the mornings.  

Last week we had some fantastic accomplishments.  First of all congratulations to the Isel House team for coming second place in all the House Points!  Congratulations to Finn & Ruben who came second place in their categories in the Science Fair &  Dan & Marcus who received a highly commended.  I had several teachers comment on how well Rm 14 had done!  This week you will have an opportunity to share your Science experiments with each other.  Congratulations to Dan for winning a place as Isel House's runner up speaker in the Isel House Speech Competitions.  Congratulations to Max for winning the Canteen's free lunch!  I wonder who will win this week's lunch?  I'm just about to mark your Asttle writing test - from what I've read, your work is looking very good as you incorporated the key features of an explanation despite the topic being a little tricky.

Your homework this week:

* Write your name at the end of this post

* Read something of your choice each night

* 10 - 15 minutes Study Ladder

* Finish your homework sheet - we will mark it on Friday

* Spelling - review for your test on Friday

* Blog - Either Wednesday or Thursday evening, post a positive comment on one of our posts.  Try to make a connection with your own experiences / learning.  I'll demonstrate this on Wednesday while in the media suite.  

Remember to give me your permission slip for our movie; I'm looking forward to it as it should be fun!  P.E. will be on Monday, Wednesday & Friday if fine weather - remember to bring your sports uniform.

Have a great week,

Miss K.
