This is my Term 4 handwriting sample.

What: I learnt that it is easier to copy a poem rather than some writing.
Why: We did this so we could assess our handwriting.
Next: My next step is to put a bit more effort into it.

Dear Parent / Caregiver

Riverdale School always strives to enhance our ‘connected community of learners’. This is part of our mission statement and we are very pleased at the potential these digital portfolios have for developing the communication between the students, parents and teachers.

I’m hoping that this will spark some rewarding conversations between you and your child. They would really appreciate hearing some feedback and positive praise from you about their learning and progress. You are, after all, their biggest cheerleader! Your child would also appreciate some written comments under some posts, also. They could show you how to do this.

Please email me at markherring.riverdaleschool@gmail.com if you have any questions. I look forward to your feedback.

Diana,

You have made some pleasing progress in reading this term. You are now reading at a 13-14 yr old level and have shown an excellent understanding of the scientific method this term.

I hope you have a fantastic holiday!

Your 2nd draft of the 'Oil and Water' explanation showed very clear evidence of the basic criteria, Diana. You have the introduction and conclusion, some good ideas and you've ordered the ideas logically.

I would like to see you structuring your explanation with paragraphs and adding more detail. You could do this by making sure that you've covered many of the WHs.

What a great term you've had, Diana! I've been impressed with your self directed style of learning and your extremely high level of independence. You have started to grow in your leadership skills and recognising your strengths as a learner.

I am looking forward to seeing you begin to pass on your skills to others and publish your more of your writing on your efolio. Keep up the effort!

Me!!!

Me!!!
This is me with Misty.

About Me

My name is Diana. I am a Year 6 pupil at Riverdale School. I like reading, writing, arts, crafts, drama and playing with my rabbit Misty.
I have a ptosis*, which means I have a droopy eyelid. I also have a problem that means my eyes don't work together. I am short sighted in one eye, and I have astigmatism in the other. That means every thing is blurry.
My strengths are: reading, writing, computers, acting and making new friends. This year at school, I want to get 100% on Stage 7 knowledge test. I also want to improve my ball skills.
