good digital citizens
Met with Archimedes on Monday

(25/05/15) and found that
everyone still struggled to use
place value to solve multiplication
problems in their head. Therefore,
the learning intention for the
week has been changed to
respond to the needs of the
learners. Seeing how they go this
week, I will see if they are ready
to move on to rounding and
compensating.
L.I: explain why the Sun is essential for

life of Earth through looking at Maui
and the Sun
Lesson 1 Digital Superhero PPT
Kama - quick camp notice - gear list and

expectations
Make sure all raps are memorised and

choreography must be complete by end of
