HL Week 11 - Camp Diaries
Hi Room 15,
Hope you had a great time at camp last week!
For Home Learning this week, you need to complete the following tasks:
1. Diaries
Part 1:
Because of our limited 'diary writing' time at camp, use this week to record a few diary entries. Remember what Mr Hamilton says - you will look back on this in years to come and maybe even show your grandkids!
Remember to include highlights and important details from each day.
*You may want to include some photos on each page.
Part 2:
Extension - If you want to push yourself, continue working on the study questions from page 11.
2. Spelling
Learn your spelling words for this week. We will be testing on Thursday! Don't forget your definitions...
3. Maths Buddy
Complete this week's tasks set by your maths teacher.
4. Read
Spend 10 - 15 minutes a day reading a text of your choice.
