Mrs Finlayson is away boohooo

Dear Room M Families,

A short note to let you know that I am due to have surgery next week so I will not be teaching in Room M for a week and a half.

We are fortunate enough to have the lovely and experienced Mrs Duff teaching our class while I am away.

Spelling, reading and maths homework will go ahead as usual. If you have any questions please come in and see Mrs Duff.

Thank you for your support and understanding while I recover.

Yours Faithfully

Nicola Finlayson

Newsletter Week 1 Term 3

Room M Families,

Welcome back to Term 3, I hope you have had an enjoyable holiday and are ready for a busy term.

Spelling & home readers will start coming home this week. Maths homework will begin in the next few weeks. In the meantime feel free to visit our class blog for some excellent math sites or www.studyladder.co.nz

You will notice that your child may choose to bring a PLAY home to read this term. Our focus during reading is fluency. This will also allow them to gain   confidence with public speaking. Your child might need your help practicing lines or organising a costume later in the term.

HELP– Mrs Finlayson needs empty water or fizzy bottles with lids. She needs A LOT!!

Also if you have newspaper or junk mail spare we’d love it.

Thank you for your support,

Mrs Finlayson

Week 10 Reminders

SPELLING - Last week of spelling before our end of term list testing. This means that their will be no words coming home in week 11.

SWIM 4 LIFE - we have our catch up sessions next week. One on Monday and the last on Thursday. Don't forget your togs!!

Home Reading - There will be no home reading next week as we are cleaning out the book boxes and moving the resources. Please continue to read from books from home.

Students will be given browsing books to read during the holidays if Mrs Finlayson feels that continued reading practice is necessary during the holidays to maintain current levels.

Week 1 No spelling homework this week as we are retesting to find out which new spelling level each child will be in for term 2!

Week 2 No swim For Life this week due to ANZAC day, we will have a catch up day later in the term.
