Week 3
Welcome to week 3 (already!!)
NAPLAN - This begins tomorrow morning and the schedule runs as outlined below.
Our focus is on keeping the whole week low key and stress free! We had a good chat today where we talked about NAPLAN and I reminded the students that this test only tells the assessors a little about their learning...it doesn't tell them about their other talents and strengths. We talked about how all that we (myself and our parents) just ask and know that they will do their very best!
If I can ask if you can make sure they have a good breakfast and are as organised as possible to reduce any stress or concerns.
At the end of each assessment our normal learning program will resume...the Year 3 world doesn't stop!
Casuals for Catholics - Is a free dress day on Friday 18th May. Please encourage your child to bring along a gold coin donation.
Please see below the homework that has been assigned for the week. We have adjusted the homework load this week to keep things moving well at home :)
Reading - All reading is to be written into their new reading log, including the name of the book and number of pages and then signed by you.
Sight Words - If you can please work with your child to complete these every night. It is great to ask your child the definition of the word or to use that word in a sentence as well if you have time?
Times Tables - Activity Sheet - 3 x Times Tables. Students are asked to write out their tables in order on Monday and Tuesday nights and then complete them out of order on Wednesday and Thursday nights.
If you have any questions, please don't hesitate to contact me.
Have a great week,
Mr Mc
