Homework

Thank you for supporting this and for sighting and signing this every week.

Reading, Writing and Inquiry

This week students have completed their inquiry into the evolution of technology over the last 100 years. Students presented on what some of these advancements have been as well as what these have meant to us as people. Learners have also continued to read in their book clubs looking into themes and the relationships of power between the characters in their books. Students have also continued to work on their literary essay connecting with their texts and providing evidence for their claims. Students will publish their work as part of their Seesaw reflections this week. Please do talk with them about this. There is some excellent thinking and learning evidenced here and students will be proud to share I am sure. 

Mathematics

This week students have been reviewing their work on ratios, unit rates, fractions, decimals and percentages by taking an open book assessment as well as a Number Knowledge assessment.
