Welcome to Room 14 and 2015

We are well under way with our learning in Room 14 for 2015.  The class has had a very settled start to the year and students are already well into their learning with reading, writing, phonics, maths and spelling programmes under way.

Each day this term we are starting the day with a warm up run.  We have set ourselves a target of running 10 laps of our circuit by the end of the term.  Each week we are increasing our distance by one lap so as to build up stamina. While initially a little reluctant the students are seeing the connection between healthy bodies and healthy minds ready to learn.

While the weather is still hot we will be swimming everyday.  Please make sure your child has their togs and towel unless there is a good reason for them not to swim on a particular day.

Please make sure you are reading each night with your child.  They should have a reading book most days.  There is weekly spelling and starting in term 2 there will be a maths homework notebook as well as the spelling and reading. Reading books and library books need to be sent to school inside covers. The reading covers should be with the students each day.
