Another beautiful day, a cold and frosty one!

It was good to have the opportunity to conference individually with you, about your next steps for learning in paragraph writing. This will continue today. Thanks to you all for being responsible and getting on with your work, as I talk and work with individual students. That is a very real way to support each others learning.

Today we are going to continue with your reading task - The Information Hunt about the real Oakley Creek. REMEMBER we are going to have a quizz next week on this. May the best team win!
