Welcome to Grade 4A's blog for 2014. Here you will find student work samples, student posts on different topics, links to popular learning websites as well as other news about what we are learning about in school. I hope that this space, along with the integration of iPads as an educational tool, helps 4A students to enhance their skills and thinking in order to become Smart, Safe and Responsible users of technology in this digital age. Hopefully it will also allow students to further share their learning journey with families at home. Enjoy!

Keep in touch Zafirah!

Today we say goodbye to a wonderful student, classmate and friend. This is a space on our blog where we can communicate with her, ask questions about her new school, share our exciting news and read about special things happening with Zafirah and her family. We can practise our quality blogging and keep in touch at the same time! :) Zafirah, we wish you well in Sydney.

  5. Hey guys sorry I didn't write. The reason I didn't write was because I didn't have any internet last week and I forgot to write this week. Hope you guys are having fun I sure am. Let me tell you about my school. On the first day I made 11 friends and the names of these people are Lucy,Jess,Logen,Jorden,Sophia,Breele,Renea,Azizah,Victoria,Macenze and Tiana. My class name is 4SK. They have Water,Air,Earth and Fire as their houses I was in Fire and so was Zaara. I was just doing some homework about How kids can make a differnce for my Oracy Competition. Also in July I'm doing a test to go to a speichal school and if I pass I will leave next year.

    3. Dear Zafirah,

      Hope you are having a good time in your new school. I was supposed to write yesterday but I didn't because I was sick. I have lots of questions to ask you.

      1. What colour is Water, Air, Earth and fire? I really want to know because we don't know what it is.
      2. Is there any specialists in your school like our school does? (Example: Art, Music, Science, P.E or some other languages?)
      3.What is your teacher called? I think your teacher has a letter "s" and a "k" in it.

      From Ernest

      P.S WE ARE HAVING A MAGIC SHOW!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
      P.P.S We are also having fun

      I really really want to ask you these questions.

      Is the weather more different to Melbourne than Sydney?

      Did you celebrate Ramadan this year?

      Hope you're having fun during school holidays.

  17. Dear Zafirah,
    I have a few comments and questions for you.
    What colour house is Earth and Air? Have you got to do any tests? Well, for the past few days, we had to do a few ondemand tests and maths tests. The maths tests are the ones on the booklet. We had cupcake day a few days ago and today we had finish off our maths booklets, do work sheets then go on Mathletics. Here is a cheat for Mathletics. Always do the tests at the end of the topic and you will get more daily points!
    See you soon,
    Andy
