Homework

Hi Team

There are three weeks to go, and lots to finish, so here is the homework:

1. Spelling. At the end of next week (week 8) there is going to be our big 70 word test. You need to figure out which words of the last 10 lists you don't know and start practising pronto!

2. Reading. Please keep reading for 15 minutes each night

3. Ancient Rome Research. We need to finish our research, and present using either power point, poster or booklet format.

HAPPY HOMEWORKING!

Eclipse 2012







Today the senior team enjoyed using black paper, white paper and the sun to make cresents on the white paper with holes in the black paper. Using the paper meant we were not hurting our eyes by looking at the eclipse.

MY HIGHLIGHT WAS MEETING NORM HEWWIT

Millie's 'moment of the week'

Hey guys
Well my moment of the week was when I was doing road patrol. Pippa was on the other side and I had just put my sign out. She tried to put her hand up to tell the other cars to stop. There was a bit of a gap between these two cars and the car further back seemed to be slowing down, so she put her sign out. But the car sped up and Pippa had to pull her sign in, the car missed the sign by about 2 centimetres. This is the third time something like this has happened to Pippa.
And that was my moment of the week.
Millie (:

Joshua's Moment of the week is...

My moments of the week are :
  •  learning about Tiberius Gracchus, how he changed Rome forever
  •   why he didn't have a proper buerial, he was only throwen in the river Tiber
  • And why the senate bashed him to death with wooden poles.

Emma L's Moment Of The Week!

Hi guys,

My moment of the week would be havin the S.P.C.A come and pay us a visit.
I was very inspired by his story. I was amazed at how he turned out kind and caring, considering his childhood with family violence.

I agree that animals are like humans and that they know when something is wrong and they want to help.
