Reading for our Read-a-thon competition 

Thank you to the families of the students who are supporting and encouraging them to read each day at home.  I appreciate the time you put into this as I can see really supportive comments in the student's reading logs.

We are almost half way through this journey.  Thank you for helping me to increase their love of reading.

Speeches

All students in A1 are reminded that they will need to complete their speeches with their parents by week 5.  We will begin having our class speeches during week 5 in preparation for choosing winners to go on to represent A1 in our speech finals in week 6.  I will send out more information about week 6 soon.

*Students were given information about what they could write their speeches on.  The topic was their favourite animal.  The speech can be anything about their favourite animal or pet at home to make things easier.  Students can talk about anything to do with their chosen animal.
