The Last Homework of Term 1!
For those of you playing at home, (which is, of course, the best place from which to play 'homework') here is the homework that will be due in before the holidays.
Inaugural Homework Due: 09/04/09
“Hi kids! Welcome back to homework. Yay! Unfortunately we had to lay off Mr Homework. He was getting a bit diva on it, making lavish demands. Please welcome… me! Ms Homework! I’m excited about this year’s homework. Are you? Sooo… remember to get your NIE newspaper, k? Also, unless your parents regularly get the newspaper, you’ll probably need to get a spare Daily Post from class to complete some of your newspaper activities. What does inaugural mean, anyway…?”
Title page this time is “Homework 2009” Decorate the top half page as your title and stick your homework sheet in beneath it.
Newspaper: Read though your newspaper. These are the tasks that I expect you to complete in your newspaper: 1-7, 9-11, 13, 15-18, 22, 26
Remember that you are welcome to do any task from your newspaper that is not listed above. In fact, if you are a homework “expert” then you should be thinking about ways you can challenge yourself. I will happily mark any extra work if you are happy to leave your book with me for an extra night or two.
Gregor the Underlander is being made into a movie, and you have been asked to design the poster that will go up in cinemas to advertise it. You have been asked to include at least four main characters in your image, to try and make your image exciting by choosing an important part of the story to base your image on, and to use a strong, bold font for the title. I will select the five best for a poster showdown of epic proportions!
It's a fairly straightforward one to start you off. I'm really looking forward to seeing your movie posters! Have fun!
On another note, thanks to those kids that helped me try out the flip camera today. Hopefully we will get the chance to put some of our footage up on the blog site soon! Stay posted!

Guess the Eye!
Room Totara have been looking at how the eye and parts of the brain work to change light into images we can recognise.
Can you guess whose incredible ocular interpreter we have here? It could be yours!
Stay tuned next time for a picture of a class member's brain ;P
Nicole is bug-eyed with excitement about the whole thing.
