Dear Ryan's parents,

Today was a very challenging lesson for Ryan. He had trouble getting into today's lesson due to internet connectivity issues (5 minutes) and he was also acting in poor behavior throughout the lesson. For example, to start the lesson, it took him 15 minutes to write a Title and Date in his notebook!!!

20 minutes were lost before the lesson even began. I ask that you please have a conversation with him about his behaviour during our lessons. Also, it might be a good idea if  at least one parent is home during Ryan's lessons so as to ensure that he behaves himself and that he takes these lessons seriously. 

For today's lesson, we read Lesson 14, Task 1 (Literature Book).  

To help Ryan take his lessons seriously, it would be a VERY GOOD idea for Ryan to complete his homework.

For homework, can Ryan please complete and submit: Lesson 14, Task 2: (Your Turn).

Thank you. 

Mr. Grande.

Dear parents,

Today's lesson was an in-class test (Lesson 16 - May 19 - Weekly Test - G3U6W4). Your children used the hour very wisely, focused on the task at hand. My instructions were very clear on the high standard of assessment they are all now at, especially at the level and stage of learning they've achieved with the G3 Wonders program, Unit 6. Your children listened to these instructions very well and they all completed their tests on time, with success. Well done to them all!

If you would like to know your child individual mark, you can Message your request to me through the ANEE portal. 

Thank you.
