Term One; Week One

Kia Ora, Guten Tag and welcome to our blog for 2012 J

This is where you will be able to find your homework tasks, team newsletters, information about what is happening during the week and reflections on what we have been doing in class.

Welcome to a brand new year. I hope that you all had a great holiday and are excited about your year in Room 15.

This week is Week One. This week is all about getting to know one another and settling into our room.

There is a homework task for you to complete over the next two weeks as Weeks 1 and 2 are short weeks J

A reminder for our returning Year 8’s to lead by example and make the most of all of the opportunities that Maeroa has to offer and for Year 7’s to experience as much as they can while they are at Maeroa.

PE and Activate

Our days for PE are Mondays, Tuesdays and Fridays. For the first few weeks we will be swimming on these days so you will need to bring your togs. As well as swimming we will be doing Activate every day. The expectation is that you will need to bring your PE uniforms every day.
Homework

Homework is given out every week on a Monday and it is expected that homework is returned completed on Fridays. You are expected to complete around 30 minutes of homework every night.

HOMEWORK IS DUE IN ON FRIDAY 10^TH FEBRUARY.

Room 15’s homework

 Weeks 1 and 2, 2012

Your homework task for the next two weeks is to create a newspaper page where most of the information is about you J

Your newspaper page is due in on Friday 10^th February.

You will be provided with either an A2 or A3 piece of paper to present your information on. Some class time will be given in Week One only to start you off.

Your work MUST be set out like a newspaper page and needs to include the following:

v  Research the year you were born and summarise 3 or 4 things that happened that year that interest you. Write up as 3 or 4 stories – don’t forget to include interesting headings for each story.

v  A column about your family / the people  that you live with

v  A column about your interests and likes, both at school and at home

v  A column about your dislikes

v  A column about your goals / ambitions

v  A maximum of 3 photos including captions

v  3 important events that have occurred in your life

v  A column about your dream job including reasons shy

v  A Soduku / cartoon / wordfind / crossword

Don’t forget about the layout of a newspaper page when designing your page.  

Remember to use catchy headlines that are relevant for the information in your articles.

Make your newspaper interesting by using different fonts, colour and headings.
