Thank you!

A big thanks to all those people who have visited our blog over the past few weeks. This will most likely be my last post as Room 20 teacher as I am off to work for Massey University for two terms. I wish Room 20 all the best for the rest of the year and for those visitors, please feel free to leave a comment...the kids love it when you do!

RESPECT

Room 20 are learning about Respecting our Learning Environment.  We have been talking about how we all have rights in our classroom but with these rights come responsibilities.
Here are some of our ideas about how we can respect our environment and what we think are our rights and responsibilities.

At home, can you give the class ideas about how others respect their environment at home? Consider this a home blog challenge? Have a go!

I have the rights  to read a book but it is my responsibility to put it away.
