Kia ora parents and whanau!
Welcome to the HSP Expo. H stands for Home, S stands for school and P stands for partnership. This is pretty much about what your child has been doing at school over the last three terms and giving you a heads up on their new found skills.
So let's break it down some and I will make sure not to go on and on
1. Blog - Look around this blog and everything you want to know and what has been happening is right here. Look at the tabs, for example - Term 3 Forward dates will tell you what happens in term 3 and if you scroll down you will have seen what happened in Term 2. Look at all the tabs and you will get some insight about what happens around here.
2. Pangarau - Math
Your child knows a cool game called 99...ask them how to play the game and you will learn how to add 1 and 2 digit numbers together up to the cool number 99. Go over this number and you are out of the game
3. Panui - Read, read and read some more!
Every week we get to choose new books and read and read and read some more...it is said that if a child just reads 10 minutes per day, they will get a vocabulary range of over a 1000 words in a year. Wow!
4. Tuhituhi - They know how to write particular sentence structures in Te Reo Maori and translate these too. Wow!
5. ICT and Kaupapa - students are learning to comment and check out blogs on the net. They have been exposed to study ladder and know the basics for typing and saving their work. For kaupapa ask your child when Matariki appears and where...ask them some questions about the Glasgow commonwealth games or talk about what they do in CDL, Kapa haka, He Manukura, Karanga or Orchestra
There have been so many exciting things that your child has done...the world is their oyster!
