Weekly update 17th - 21st August

This week saw us moving from the early stages of our unit to starting to ask questions and inquiry into what being balanced means. We looked at different ways we can relax and the importance of living a healthy lifestyle.

In mathematics we continued our number focus. Students had an opportunity to play Mathletics and enjoys being able to play against each other on live Mathletics. Students have their username and password on their home folder. This has not been assigned for homework, but students can log in and play at home if they wish.

On Monday we brainstormed what a good writer is. Students did a really good job, talking to each other and brainstorming all the different elements involved in writing. Our writing focus for this unit is recount writing. Students created an individual recount on a recent event. Next week we will be doing guided recount writing and working through the main elements of a recount.
