Your homework challenge for this week is to find these places on the globe, and to tell me what each country's capital city is. As I am only asking this question on the blog, I will only be awarding prizes to those who email me their answers!! grant@freeville.school.nz

We need drink bottles please!
After a discussion in class today, several children have said that if they had a drink bottle in class, they wouldn't need to keep asking to get a drink from the water fountain.

Scott, Shakya, Torin, Brooke, Matai, Rebecca, Sarah, Regan, and Harrison will be asking at home if it is possible to track down a spare one that they may be able to use.

Happy hunting!

Welcome to Term 3

Welcome back to school for the REAL winter term.

Just to keep everyone up-to-date with what's happening, we are adding a Blog to our existing Room 7 Wiki.

It is my intention to use the blog to communicate between home & school, whether it be between the classroom and families, child to child, children and families, or other options I've yet to think about!

It will be a forum for the children to share their work, and to view and comment on the work of their peers. We will include images and anything else fancy enough for me to work out (and on).

So - as long as you have internet access and an active email address, you will be able to view and/or contribute to our new blog.... I look forward to making this part of our learning journey inside and outside of the classroom.

Regards
Grant
