Learning Goals Term 2 2019

Literacy
While reading aloud, having good pacing and volume is a good goal for me. I will achieve this goal by reading to my sister.

Maths
Be able to find volume based on an outside area. I can learn this by watching Youtube repeating the process, thereby memorising it.

Religious Education

Reading the bible, this lets me understand more about it. This can also help me in other parts of life, remembering the verses, helping me overall.
