Project
Homework will start up again this week. This week the
letter is ‘D’. Children can
take any subject starting with the letter ‘D’ and find out some facts about it.
It could be a place, country, animal, instrument or a person even! We love to
learn new facts on any subject. Children can then present their new learning in
any format they choose. They can create a poster to go on the classroom wall. They
can talk about their subject, maybe they can bring it in? They could also use
the computer for the project. They can create in word, power point, publisher,
maybe even find a youtube video, create a wordle or a voki – the sky’s the
limit! If the project is digital either email it to me, bring it in on a memory
stick or put it straight onto the Room 4 Homework Wiki. The link to the wiki is
on the blog and the password and username are exactly the same as the ones for
Mathletics. Have a look on the Wiki (the link is on the blog) for some ideas
and some ‘How to…” advice for digital projects. I am looking forward to Friday
when everyone will get to present their projects to the class.
Mikaela, Ethan's sister is going to a couple of Olympic events, perhaps she could email in a report or some photos or answer some questions from the children, she will have her iphone with her
