Term Four Update

Good Afternoon Parents,

I hope you all had a lovely holiday with your children over the past two weeks. We certainly had some exciting holiday news to share with each other this morning! 

Here are a few things to not as we commence Term Four of Year One.

Think Mentals/Homework
Next Friday 20th October units 17 and 18 are due to be completed in the Think Mentals book. Sight words and home readers are continuing as a part of our homework program in Term Four. Please remember to note each text that your child reads in their reading logs to avoid the same readers going home multiple times.


Please see below for a timetable of when Think Mentals are due:

Calendar Orders
Our Calendar Art is in a display file by the classroom door. If you would like to purchase your child's artwork orders need to be in by this Friday 13th October.


Prac Student
Next week we will have Mrs. Tanya Harte commencing her four week teaching prac in our classroom. The Year Ones already had a visit from Mrs. Harte last term. Stay tuned for more information about Mrs. Harte on our upcoming blog posts.

Rosters
The news roster for Term 4 went home today and our Parent Help Roster is up on the pin up board outside the classroom. Due to Mrs. Harte being here from weeks 2-5 we are not requesting parent help until week 6 of this term.

Please see below for the news roster if yours has gone walk abouts :)




Assembly
Year 1R and 1P are coming together to present a Prayer Assembly on Friday 20th October (week 2). By the end of this week, some children will have reading parts to practice in their homework folders. Your assistance with helping at home is much appreciated!

Absentee Notes
Since last term, I have been collating absentee notes (a very fun job) but I may have either missed or not received some notes from people so I will be sending some absentee follow ups home during the week. If you could please sign these and bring them back to school ASAP, that would make my day :) 

Have a great first week!
