Last week our 'fab word' was 'mnemonic". A mnemonic is a device to help you remember some thing tricky. An example is 'arithmetic' (A red indian thought he might eat toffee in church). Another example is 'Ngaruawahia' (Nine girls are running under a waterfall and here I am). We came up with some good mnemonics of our own.
Do you have a mnemomnic for one of your spelling words this week or perhaps for another word or place name? Please add your mnemonic as a comment to our blog and share it with us.
Welcome to Term 3
Our Inquiry Topic for Term 3 is: "Are people the same where ever you live in the world?" We are going to be looking at different cultures and values. We will have a Cultural Day on the 17th September where you are welcome to come and see the work we have been doing.
