First week of school

The first week is almost here and we have been busy getting to know each other and working out our routines and expectations. We have 5 students new to GSIS and have loved finding out a little about them but just focusing on building those good relationships within the class. As with the start of every year we have some assessment to do and we will be ticking away at that over the next three weeks.

Our unit for the next six weeks is 'Who we are in place and time' and our focus will be around the issues of migration, impacts and problems immigrants face and cause to the communities they move into. This quarter we will have swimming for PE but that will not start for a couple of weeks. It seems a great  time to swim with all this hot weather.
