PROGESS CHECK: What do I need to achieve this week?

It is important you keep up to date with your work so you are not completely overwhelmed next week.  (Or so you don't need to come in during Holiday school)

Next Thursday is our market day.  At Lunchtime only.

You need to have the following tasks completed.

  1. Advertising tasks complete
    • Advertisement added to social media, school notices and posters around school.
    • DUE TODAY
  2. Budget
    • Create a list of ingredients/items you need to make the goods you are selling
    • How many do you expect to sell?
    • Ensure you have the right quantity listed and the cost per item.
    • DUE END OF WEEK
  3. What equipment will you need to set up for the market day?
    • The list of school equipment so far is 10 tables and 10 chairs, 1 coffee table and the picnic tables.  Make sure you add to Miss Hill's list if there are other things needed (by the end of Tuesday)
    • Who do you need to ask permission from?
    • When does it need to be delivered?
    • DUE END OF WEEK. And additions needed by Tuesday.
Please keep checking the blocks so you know what work you should be completing, these are set to allow enough time for each task.  As there have been many disruptions lately there are a few tasks that have been missed.
It is your responsibility to make sure you have completed the tasks set.  If not you have the opportunity to attend holiday school in the first week of the school holidays.
PRIORITY LIST:
  1. Items set on the google classroom first
  2. Items set on the blog.
  3. Items within the Project Unit Plan (Learning Tasks)
    • Some of the learning tasks have been set on the google classroom but some of the tasks within the unit plan can not be completed until further details are confirmed.  For example you cannot do the final budget until it is decided when the trip will take place, transport and accommodation has been confirmed or the fundraising completed.
