The students have been very excited to begin our ‘How we express ourselves’ unit of inquiry titled ‘Magical Tales’. For Show and Share in Week 6 we would like the students to bring in a book of a favourite story to share with the class. They need to identify and explain the characters in the story, the setting, what the problem is and how it is resolved.
We are also aware that some students may have stories at home that are from different cultures and are not written in English. If this is the case we would like to invite any interested parents to visit your child’s classroom to read and translate a story that you have from another culture to the class. Please let us know if you are interested, we would love to have your input!
A reminder that iPads must come to school fully charged each day. At this point in the year we are now using the iPads for longer sessions. If a student’s iPad is flat they are unable to complete the set task in the allocated time and this can cause them great distress. At this age it is unrealistic for students to independently remember to charge their iPad each night, so we ask that you please prompt them to make sure that this happens.
Please ensure your child has all of the Term 2 apps loaded onto their iPad. Check the app list page for more details. http://yearone2015cornishcollege.blogspot.com.au/p/app-list.html
A reminder to please return your Story Dogs permission slip if you haven't already.
Have a wonderful weekend!
