Term 3

A classic pic from Book week!! Click to see properly

Hi there,

Term 3
Teaching is amazing.
Have really impressed with the students progress in fractional and proportional thinking this term. Most students have got the gist of using multiplication to help find fractions, so really proud of them.

Speeches.
Speeches... these are really tough to teach because you want to have a personal voice and then you don't want them to be too personal or just facts or just spouting odd about friends or pets!!
Tough to get it right with 24 students. I've got students who have written their speech already, straight onto cue cards and others who have no idea what to talk about.

I'm going to give it another week and a half then hand it over to the parents!!!

Massive thanks to all parents and families for supporting gala, cake stall and of course teacher appreciation day.
"I show my apprreciation by sending my daughter to your class everyday for five hours... "
Loving it.
I've been enjoying teaching your children this year, a great bunch of kids, and if they like me thats good, because it could be much worse, they could hate me.
Bring on the summer because surfing is free and I'm going to snowboard in the northern hemisphere...
Peace in
MJ
