As our Inquiry is on Birds, we set up a Wiki on Birds. We wrote our Bird Reports as a writing task and we are now in the process of putting all our Bird Reports on the Wiki. There are all sorts of pages such as bird reports, bird jokes, bird films, bird stories, bird games and bird photos. You can visit our Bird Wiki at:

Our Three-Way-Conferences are coming up soon, so we are currently preparing our work to show our parents. We can photocopy pages from our schoolwork books or show some other pieces of our work from around the classroom. Three-Way-Conferences are similar to Parent-Teacher Conferences, only the children are leading the conferences instead of the teachers.
