**Mrs T **
Welcome back to Term 4 everyone! Seniors please see me at any stage if you need some help with revision. I will be starting after school revision classes later this week. There will be a timetable on my door very shortly.

Juniors, you also have exams coming up and I will be putting what you will need to revise for this on your pages in the next week. Might pay to brush up on your terms for starters though.

All the best everyone!

Wondering what's in your exam? Check out your class's page to see!

With exams coming up, please feel free to organise a time to see me for tutorials or revision. I get to work at 7.30 and am here until about 4.15 so you can see me before or after school. If you would like a tutorial ensure that you have specific questions or areas that you want to go over. Please make sure that you are revising like crazy! Any practice work can be given to me to mark.

**I found this incredibly extensive glossary. Have a look through it. Please note that you do not have to know every single term.**

HELLO SENIORS!

You are nearly halfway through this term which means...(wait for it; wait for it) EXAMS are nearly upon us. WOOHOO!!! Now, I know you are incredibly excited by the thought of this and are probably already studying up a storm but on the off chance that you are not, here's a study timetable that I scabbed up for you (Thanks Sue!).



Don't forget to have a look at the internal link for study tips. See me for my msn and email if you would like to send me essays to mark or have questions during study.

Hey Mums and Dads. Need some pointers as to how you can help and support your child to learn? Have a look at the following website. There are some great practical tips for you. Cheers Mrs Tinning [|Helping your kids!]

There is a very cool graphic novel competition being held for Library Week. It is running until Friday 16 August. You get to decide what happens next and create FOUR frames to follow on from the story the week before. One winner is chosen from the weekly entries. If you are interested, go to[|www.libraryweek.org.nz] GOOD LUCK!

Hi everyone, welcome back to Term 3.

Have a look at your class's page to see what the plan is for this term. Seniors...yours is easy. STUDY! As of today (Thursday 23 July) you have 33 English periods available before your exams start. You must have a revision programme in place and I have pretty much said so in nearly ALL your reports. So Mum, Dad, Great Aunt Bertha, whoever will know that you DO have homework to do.

Please ensure that you are practising old exam papers under time constraints. I am more than happy to mark these for you.

If you need a tutorial then make a time with me. As long as you are working in class then I will make the time outside of it to help you. This wikispace is also helpful because you can get in touch with me or other members of your class easily.

All the best for this term! Mrs T. 

Have a look at the following Figures of Speech song. You might even want to sing along...might pay to do it while no one else is around.   media type="youtube" key="icBFAZ4D8B4" height="364" width="445"
