Character Ed. - Skills for Growing.

In Room 7 we have:
  • been enjoying the new iPad. We have to take turns, be patient, share and offer positive comments. It is full of maths, spelling, reading, music and matching activities.
  • watched the Dr Seuss movie "Daisy-Head Mayzie" in which Mayzie finds that friends and family are more important than fame and money. You'll be pleased to know my class agreed.
  • learned the meaning of a 'keepsake' when Connor made his Dad a lovely card with words he thought out carefully. He was proud of his Dad passing his Law exams and wanted him to have a card he could treasure.
On a lighter note -
Last week half my class learned they were 'male' !! We came across the word 'female' in a book and ALL 22 of my students thought they were female!!
