It’s getting close to the end of the week and it has gone extremely fast. My family haven’t had any experiences with Covid yet. Yet it’s great to hear some people are only experiencing cold or flu-like symptoms and are recovering well and quickly.

Add to your diary or record separately:
Describe 3 things you will do this week that demonstrate our FBS School values OR take a picture/draw a picture of you in action.
Eg: Yesterday was the beginning of me taking responsibility for cooking dinner each night this week as I get to stay at our peaceful home during the day and everyone else has to leave the house to go to work. I’m practising our school values Manaakitanga, Atawhai and Mahi Ngatahi. Luckily I don’t have to do the dirty dishes, Ake or Teidyn do them.
Another value I will be practising this week is…….
How many adjectives(describing words) can you use to describe nouns(names of things)?
Wha
Read a chapter or 2 of your new chapter book and enjoy it!
Some of us have forgotten our class karakia, scroll down further and practise them during the day.
Can you say the numbers aloud? If not can someone at home help you say the large ones?

Start a diary to recount your week this week. How can you make it sound really interesting for us, Rm18 your audience. Remember lots of voice, sharing your feelings.
Eg: Dear Diary,
Well here we go again, yet thankfully this is only for a week and I'm actually really glad the school closed so that all of our FBS community who are dealing with Covid can get well and all others stay safe during the week . I'm sure us all doing our bit this week will slow the spread.
