Thank you to all the parents who attended interviews with me. It was great to meet you all. Nothing I said seemed to surprise any of you which shows me that you are all parents engaged in your child's learning.
In Week 4 of next term, all Year 3 students will be sitting NAPLAN tests. We have been working on these and will do so again for the first three weeks of next term, however, it would be great if students did some extra activities over the holidays.
LEXILE PRO: Parents please keep them reading and ask them some questions to ensure they are fully comprehending what they are reading. All students have their logins for Lexile Pro, so after reading a book, they can log in to see if the book has a quiz and then complete the quiz. Not only does this check their comprehension, but also earns them points towards certificates that are awarded at assemblies.
STUDYLADDER: Students also have login details for Studyladder. I have set some NAPLAN tasks - including writing tasks - for students to practice over the holidays. Again, students earn points and certificates for completing tasks.
Links for these, as well as Quickulations, can be found on the right side of this blog. There were some problems with these links, but I believe I have corrected the problem and they should work.
Finally I would like to wish you all a safe and happy holiday.
See you for Term 2
Miss Calvert
