Final Fun Friday Challenges
Happy Friday, everyone!
One of the things I enjoyed during the last 5 weeks was getting a glimpse into your lives and families. I hope these Fridays have been a nice change of pace and that you had a go at the different challenges.
I want to use this post to highlight more awesome work students have done and shared with me throughout the lockdown:
And more videos - A++ creativity!
Thanks again Room 2 and thank you to all the family members who helped, cheered from off-screen and especially joined in during the making of all these Friday videos!

Star Students Term 2 Week 4

This week's Star Student is also tied between three students: Georgia, Zoey and Advika.
The reasons these students won were:
- Personal Excellence: All three students worked diligently and showed that they can make smart choices to achieve their goals.
- Respect for self and others: They always communicate in a polite and friendly manner, whether it's in an email, on Google Meet or in a blog comment.
- Respect for their learning: They have terrific attitudes towards their learning and stay motivated to do their best in all the tasks.
- Contributing and participating: Remembering to check online for updates and new learning, asking questions and joining in during discussions online.
Well done to all of you!
