Week 3 Class Newsletter

27.10.15
We hope you enjoyed the long weekend and the lovely weather that went with it. We welcome Leo to Team Star this week. Please visit our class blog to review all the fun and learning that’s been going on this past week: www.room82015stalbans.blogspot.co.nz

This week we have our Grandparents’ Day and Folk Dancing Display on Thursday 29 October. Please remember to send your child along with a small plate of food on Thursday morning for our shared morning tea. The programme for the morning is as follows:

9-10am                  Grandparents invited into the classroom for a craft activity with the children.
10-10.30am           Shared morning tea with Team Star.
10.40-11.30am      Folk Dancing demonstration on the Astro Turf.

Parents are welcome to attend the Folk Dancing display. If it is wet the Folk Dancing demonstration will be cancelled but the ‘Grandparents’ part’, in the classrooms, will still be held.

We have now re-grouped the children in Team Star for Phonics, Writing and Maths. These are needs-based ability groups. Your child will work in a group with either Mrs Wallace, Miss Young, Miss Whyte or Mrs Sutherland. These groups are flexible and may change as the teachers deem necessary. A wonderful aspect of collaborative teaching is the ability for children to work in flexible groupings, with a variety of teachers and children, across different curriculum areas.

Upcoming Events:
Wednesday 28 October – Scholastic Book Club orders close, Montessori preschool visiting Room 8
Friday 30 October – Room 8 leading Junior Assembly, Calendar Art orders close, Sushi Day, Halloween Disco
Saturday 7 October – PTA Market Day
Friday 13 October – Show Weekend (no school)
Thursday 19 October – Y0/1 Athletic Sports Day

Have a great week!

Kind regards
Cara Wallace
