Term 2 Underway and Zebong

This term for language we are studying narrative writing and have got Zebong the storyteller coming to the school to share his stories to us. These are always entertaining as students are involved in acting out his tales. Our theme( LOCUS) for the term is cultures across the school. At present we are looking at the North American Indian and will look at several over continents and investigate their similarities and what makes them different. We are setting challenges in Mathletics and Reading Eggs for the students to achieve. Do not forget homework and spelling words go out each Monday for the week and there is a levels test each third Friday. We will also be doing speeches this term so this will be another interactive and challenging term for us the learners.
