You will need:

 * Your 1B5 Homestudy Book 2.
 * to spend at least an hour a night on your homework.
 * to start planning for how you are going to complete your homework on time.

TASK ONE: Spelling
Please make sure that learn your new words for this week then get tested every night by a parent/caregiver. Don't forget to get your notebook signed. For this task you are also required to write one sentence for each of your words. Make sure that you underline your word from your spelling list.

**TASK TWO: Science**
We will be doing science fair conferencing each day this week and next week, so your homework will mainly consist of researching your topic, writing up a method and hypothesis and setting up experiments. We will discuss each day what needs to be done that night as it will differ for everybody.

TASK THREE: Reading
This week you are to rule up a reading log in the back of your homestudy book. Each night you are to:
 * record the date
 * how long you read (duration)
 * how many pages you read
 * write a brief but detailed summary of what you have read each night
 * write down two or more words that you do not understand
 * share what you read with dad/mum/caregiver. If they know the story they may want to ask you a few questions. E.G. which part of the story was your favourite tonight and why? What did the main character do in the story tonight? Were there any challenges that a character came across in the book that they had to deal with? If you had to change a bit of what you read - what would it be and why?

//A NOTE FROM THE TEACHER://
Kia ora Parents and Children, A few important notices for this week: 1. World Vision - please collect all your money from your sponsors and return to school as soon as possible. 2. Science Fair boards - these are selling for only $10.00. But be quick there are a limited amount. 3. Homework - the standard of homework has been outstanding from most of the class. There are a few students that are still handing in work at a poor level. If there are any problems with the homework please feel free to contact me: johnathan@bbi.school.nz

I hope you all have a fun filled week. :)
