Information on 9 March

Dear Parents,
I have prepared a letter for you on the progress of your child thus far for this term. This is on top of the personal qualities report that you will receive in your child's report book this Friday. I have prepared the personal qualities report for you ( a standard item for the level) and I feel that there is a need for further input. Thus I have written a letter to each of you to be given to your child on tomorrow, to be brought home to you. Please do let me know if you did not receive as it may be lost in transit.

For the March holidays, there will just be problemsum.com practice and an English project to be done. I am letting the children think about their project from today onwards and tomorrow, I will let them know the holiday homework (which is problemsums.com and the English project mentioned today). No homework will be given this Friday so that there is more time for homework completion and your child can still get to enjoy much of their first school holiday. (They will technically have this Thursday, Friday, Sat, Sunday and the whole March holidays to complete the homework.)

As for today, here's the Homework and Things to bring list:

9 March 2011

Homework:

• Incomplete Maths Classwork – Worksheets on ‘Numbers showing Position” – Due on 10 March
•  Preparing for the English Individual Project : Making a scrapbook based on your learning journey to the zoo. (Due when school reopens on 21 March 2011. Extension may be given on a case by case basis.)

 ( You can either write or type, with illustrations and photographs. ( I will be developing for you – the photographs you took at the zoo.)  You must give your scrapbook a title, size of scrapbook A4 size (to staple A4 size papers to make a scrapbook). You must have a cover page, a content page, as well as an acknowledgement page to thank the people who have helped you (for example, to buy resources or to give ideas) in your project. Title of the project: My trip to the Singapore Zoo.  At least two pages after having the cover page, content page and acknowledgement page. No maximum limit.)

Points available to be earned for this project: 30 points
