Investigator Class: Week 3, Term 1

This week is National Recycling Week which leads wonderfully into our EcoSchools topic.
Literacy:
This week along with reading activities around National Recycling Week we will also be developing our note-taking and research skills looking at world biomes. Using this new-found information we will be compiling non-chronological fact files using the class laptops. At the end of the week we will be honing our presentation skills to present our fact files to the class and hold a question and answer session.
Maths:
We continue our work on place value looking at ordering numbers, negative numbers and rounding.
Homework:
Spelling was handout out last week and will be tested on Thursday. The children have sheets to practice daily. I will be in touch when we are able to start our numeracy and literacy homework books.
Please remember the informal drop-in session on Tuesday in the classroom between 3.30 and 4.30pm. It would be lovely to meet some of you.
