can present your haiku

Topic information sheet

With this being our last week, we would usually complete a topic reminder

sheet. This would usually be a double page spread, recapping the different

weeks of the topic and explaining what you had learnt. As this is being done

online, you can choose to do this on paper and take a picture, complete a

Powerpoint or Publisher document to share your learning, or film a video that

explains what you have learnt and what your favourite parts have been.

These finished documents can then be uploaded to Seesaw so that they can be

marked. Best of luck and I can’t wait to see what you come up with!
