Term One Week Seven

Ehara taku toa i te toa takitahi, engari kē he toa takitini

My success should not be bestowed onto me alone, it was not individual success but the success of a collective

Kia ora. By now you should have read through your assessment task and instructions and have a good idea of the topic you will  research and share through your letter to the editor.  Use the dot/jot technique we looked at in class last week to support you when you are gathering your information and statistics.  You should aim to have your research completed and your letter drafted by the end of this week so that you can spend your time proofreading, editing and publishing next week.  Your assessment is due on Thursday of Week 8. I will give you time this week and next week to work on your task, but you may also have to use some at home time to complete your work.  This is especially true on Thursday this week when school is closed due to teacher strike action. Miss Yacos (from America!) will be joining us for the rest of the term.  I know you are all going to show the MHJC way and be AMAZING!
