All weekly home learning is to be submitted via google classroom before 8:00pm Sunday evening.
READING
20 minutes reading per night, following your reading you must fill in your reading ‘Term 2 e-journal’ on Google Slides (in your home learning folder) . You must make an insightful comment about what you have read each evening including pages read and how long you read for. Avoid re-telling the story in your reflection. You can provide a brief summary of what you read, however consider including your thoughts/feelings about the book/text/plot/characters; how the text might relate you you; the world; another text you’ve read. Perhaps make a prediction or some other insightful comment from what you read.
If you are reading late at night in bed you could write your reflections on a post it note and transfer them to your E-Journal the following day.
Your teachers are able to log into your online reading journal on Google Drive at any time and should be able to see daily updates.
Your online e-reading journal should be turned in weekly on Google Classroom.
After 5 nights reading you are required to ask your parents to leave a comment regarding your weeks reading. This needs to be completed at the bottom of each of your weekly slides and is a homework requirement.
MATHLETICS
Eachs week you will be set 3 new tasks. You are also asked to spend some time gaining a minimum of 500 points on Live Mathletics as part of your maths homework task.
When you have completed your Live Mathletics take a screenshot and paste it into your weekly ‘Home Learning Journal’. You are also to compllete a reflection which is to be turned in on Google Classroom.
You are also required to keep up to date with learning times tables. We have done a huge amount of learning during semester 1 with timestables – and it is your responsibility to keep practicing at home. Below are some websites you can use to practice your tables. Remember any times tables work you do needs to be added to your learning journal slide.
Any homework task that is not complete will have to be completed during your lunch time.
Additional tasks – Usually for your Australian History timeline.
Check google classroom for any additional tasks that need to be completed for home learning.
If you have any problems with any part of your homework please email one of us well before the due date. We are happy to help.

Dear Mrs Michalke, i don’t get my percentage tasks on mathletics, so I cant go on live mathletics either
Yes Alex, you have new Mathletics tasks set, your home reading and you should, after this week have 2 weeks of Social Justice research completed.
🙂
I love the Social Justice research it is soooooooooooo much fun
:):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):):P
Dear Mrs Michalke,
Is homework the same as last week because it currently shows the same homework. Thank you
Zac you had 7 days to do your social justice research and other homework. The aim is for you to develop time management skills before you enter secondary school. If you do a little every night you will not have any trouble getting your work done without sitting up at night. Mrs Michalke
i stayed up till 10:30 doing my research on social justice and my other home work requirements. can we prob do a little less home work?
Hi Amelia,
We love parent helpers so if Mum would like to help we can work around what suits. So the answer YES PLEASE! just ask Mum to pop in and see Mr T or myself whenever it suits. x
Hi Mrs Michalke,
Do you still need parent helpers as my Mum is happy to assist.
We sure are!
What wonderful manners Damian! You need to take a screen shot of your live maths points. Your reflection could include something like how you find this? Is it helping or not? Any suggestions for future maths home learning tasks? It only needs to be a sentence or two at the most. Hope this helps. Mrs Michalke
Dera Mrs Michalke
Can I please ask what we should write for a reflection for our mathletics on our Home Learning slide
We are getting toooooooooooo much homework. 🙁
Are we doing our ANZAC day poster in class or is it part of our homework. 😃
Me too Amelia, we have been working so hard in the classroom. Looking forward to the long weekend. Mrs Michalke
We are doing all the research at home Angelina. You do not have to make a poster as a presentation, you may present your research any way you like. Mrs Michalke
You sure can Angelina that is a great idea! Mrs Michalke
Dear Mrs Michalke,
Could i read an online article?
Thanks
-Angelina 🙂
Dear Mrs Michalke,
Can we do our ANZAC poster at school or does it have to be completed at home?
-Angelina
I love the idea of the ANZAC day poster. 🙂
worn out 🙁
I love doing homework!!!!
Alessia
Thanks
We think that 5ST is pretty cool too Amelia! Mrs Michalke
Hi Amelia
We will not be using our home learning folder this week as we are trying to finish our Easter Tridium slide this week so that is our extra little bit of home learning this week.
Good question. Mrs Michalke
Hi Mrs Michalke and Mr Talarico,
What are we doing in our Home Learning folder this week. You can tell me this in your own time.
-Thanks Amelia
I love being in 5ST
Yes we sure do, want to get straight back into it Ajay. I have put the new homework tasks up tonight and we also went through the home learning journal and the Term 2 E Reading journal in class today. Any more questions please feel free to ask.
Mrs Michalke
Do we have homework this week because it is the first week
We need to stay in a routine Amelia.
Well done Ajay
How come we have to do homework on the holidays
I GOT 1004 POINTS ON MATHELETICS
3D Net City
WWW
I could research very well and defined every word that I had to in task 1 without copying the same words from google which means I didn’t do plagiarism. My answers had a lot of information and detail. I could use my time wisely and could probably finish my work in the time frame given. In task 2 I used creative commons to get every picture and shape net which means I didn’t do copy write. I was able to write how many faces, vertices and edges were in each shape.
EBI
I think I couldn’t have done or improved any better except talking to my friends and getting distracted by them.
Narrative
WWW
I was able to put some descriptive and interesting words in my narrative which made it way better than when I didn’t put interesting words. I finished my sizzling starter, back fill and first problem.
EBI
I had a team that could brainstorm some ideas for my story because I need more interesting problems or complications. My sizzling starter could capture the reader in between 30-60 seconds. I could add more description and really good problems that can hook the reader in.
hi Mr T & Mrs M,
WWW during maths was the 3-D shape investigation which was fun but really hard for me and my partner because we had a hard challenge to do but it would be ebi it was all online and we didn’t need to paste all the pieces together. WWW in literacy was the back fill and sizzling starts which was fun but it would be ebi we done more.
Thanks for reading
Task Time
WWW
I think that task time is useful because we get to finish our work which makes us more organized so we don’t need to finish it at home. Basically everyone finished their work and that makes me feel like we can use our time wisely and effectively.
EBI
Later in the year when we are doing more things we can get more time so we can finish our work be satisfied and relax. If every single one of us in 5ST finish their work that allows us to have so much more fun
This is something we would need to discuss in class Ajay not really on the blog. However in short you will not get to 5 weeks in a row without us calling your parents after week 2. Hope that helps.
What happens if you don’t complete your homework 5 WEEKS IN A ROW :0
It is not actually a blog you are speaking to Zac it is your teachers Mr Talarico and Mrs Michalke. We will have to organise with our Buddies teacher when we meet them again, it all depends on timetables. Mrs Michalke
I am not sure of the reason classroom teachers do not set up your Mathletics Accounts we are just asked to pass on the new username and passwords over to you. Sorry I can now answer this question Ajay. Mrs Michalke
hi blog. when do we get to see our buddies again?
-thank u zac
why cant we use our old matheletics passwords 🙂
Dear Mrs Michalke,
For the reading homework are we allowed to read the same book twice in one week and read the same book again a day after so example:
Monday: The chocolate war
Tuesday: The chocolate war
Thank you
Tell me in your free time
WE HAVE GOT OVER 30,000 PEOPLE THAT HAVE BEEN ON THE BLOG NOW!!! :O 🙂 😛
Dear Mrs T,
Thankyou for making me Grace and Nikita feel comfortable in sitting in your classroom.
From Brooke! 🙂
Thank you Mrs M! 🙂
Cherry
This is because you have already completed all the tasks I have set the other students so you have free time 🙂
Dear Mrs M,
I’m sorry to interrupt your afternoon,but I have just checked my Mathletics, and I have no tasks set yet. When you have the time, could you set me my tasks please?
Thank you so much,
