Market Day research

Stage 2 will be researching and writing about our Market Day in order to promote it.

We will have a guest speaker - Judy Preston - on Friday 9 August, 1.50-3pm to discuss the history of Market Day.

Judy is a budding historian and ex-SGPS teacher.

Students will take notes so as to gather as much information as possible.

We have Archived Photos for them to view too.

Then students will write a short newspaper article (using the planner attached below) and make a poster to display, go on Facebook and in our newsletter.

The term started with 3 weeks on the quality, rich text The Land of Neverbelieve. Full exploration of this text requires a minimum of 3 weeks. Students will create their own fantasy creature and include information on its appearance, size, diet, habitat, predators, special features or strengths and other interesting facts. The will publish this as an information report including illustrations. This is an introduction to their Term 3 homework task.
