This week, we are going to introduce our Year 7 and 8 classes to our reading development wiki called Reading is Fun! We hope that students will use this to track their reading development during this year. They are asked to write a page about their favourite books and magazines using images and embedded videos to enliven the page. Students are also encouraged to comment on each other’s pages with positive ideas and support.
There is a full page with embedded presentations on this site and Mrs Robinson has also put these on this post.
If you are a Dixie student in Year 7 or 8, have a look at the presentation below to remind you how to use the wiki. Please ask Mrs Robinson if you need your username and password.

Our two copies of Mockingjay arrived yesterday! Mrs Robinson read the book last night – it was so good that she couldn’t put it down and read into the early hours of the morning – fantastic!

We just can’t wait for this book! Mrs Robinson has pre-ordered two copies which will be waiting for the first two students to ask for them! Mind you, she is going to read it first.
