It just seemed like the other day that I was learning how to Blog - now I'm writing the last one!! I'm really not sure where the last few weeks of Term 1 have gone.
It has been an incredibly busy term and all the children have worked extremely hard. I am very pleased with the progress they have all made and with their attitude and behaviour they bring to the classroom. Working full time has been a lot of hard work but I have thoroughly enjoyed working with this fantastic bunch of children who you should all be very proud of. I am sad about handing them over next term but I will be in the school 3 days a week next term so will be keeping a close eye on them!!
This week the children have been doing an Inquiry into the Commonwealth Games which they have been enjoying. With the wet weather will have been able to watch some of the games during interval and lunchtimes.
We also had a visit from Detective Kate Bartlett who spoke to the children about Cyber Bullying and Cyber Safety. Hopefully the children have all taken aboard her messages about the seriousness of bullying online and about keeping themselves safe online. A follow up session is going to be held for parents early next term.
It was Grandparents Day yesterday and it was lovely to have so many grandparents visit Room 7 and then attend assembly. We demonstrated to them ways in which we can learn math now with programmes on the computer and also played a math game with them. The children were interested in hearing about some of the things that the grandparents did when they were at school.
I hope you all have a lovely break and the children have some rest and relaxation ready for Term 2.
