 * Welcome to Room 13's Wiki



A welcome to term 1 to all Room 13 students and their families. The syndicate focus for this Term is Getting on Together. __General Class Routines __ The usual class routines will continue. All students will bring home a book to read in their book bags most days. This may be a book they have read in class or a book they have chosen from a selection that they should be able to read without much difficulty. The purpose of this reading is for the student to practise, as this is what leads to fluency. On Fridays the children bring home their poem book to read the poem(s) they have learned in class. This book must be returned on Monday.  On Thursday we have Library and the children can keep these books at home until the following Thursday to return and replace with another book. Weekly spelling will be sent home in a notebook on Mondays and tested on the following Monday. Please keep this notebook in the child's bookbag.
