Dear Julie and Peter,

I just wanted to tell you guys about our community group in U.O.I. with 5TS. I hope you learn about my community and I hope you will support it!

As you should know our unit is “How We Organize Ourselves”. My community is about teaching art. I am in the community with Hanna and Anu from 5TS. Our mission is to not only teach kids but also to inspire them to love art. Communities have to have rules and responsibilities for group members to follow. Some of our rules are: lastly,
 * Appreciate each others work
 * Treat others fairly
 * Share supplies and responsibilities equally
 * Be respectful

We hope our community will go well and we will get to make an after school activity out of it. Again I hope you guys will support our community, From, Ellie

Dear Ms.Lawler, In class, our unit is How We Organise Ourselves. As part of our final assessment, we are supposed to make a community. My community is to teach children art. We had an idea to put our small action to plan by teaching our buddies art.

In my community, there are two people from my class, Hanna Gilmore and me, and one person from the next class, Ellie Smith. She is happy to give her time to teach our buddies art.

We were hoping to have a talk with you about the time and location. Please reply back about a time which will suit you for a talk. This will give us a good start, so once we are successful, we can start an after school activity.

Kind Regards, Anu

Dear Mr.Thomas and Ms.Stacey, I am writing to you to tell you about my community group which me and members from both 5TS and 5JP have made. This is a real opportunity to work with people who have the same interest as I do.

During this unit of inquiry, ‘How We Organise Ourselves’, our final assessment is to create our own community. The community I am in is an art community, the HKA Artists. In my group, my team members are Ellie, Hanna, and I. We decided to make this community because we all had a goal of teaching children art, and we three have an interest in this area. One of our goals is to teach young minds the concepts and skills of art, but also how to have fun with it! After each month, we’ll have a mini-gallery presenting the children’s work.

So far, we have decided on our mission statement, goals, and rules. We put them on our community Wiki. We’ve also put our home page.

I hope this gives you a peek into our progress so far. I am really excited to have our communities up and running. One thing that will make me happy is that if these run for the whole year!

Yours sincerely, Anu

Dear Mr Thomas & Stacey,

I’m writing to you because I wanted to talk to you about our community.

We have started an Art Club called the Artists. Anu,Ellie and I have created an Art Club considering we all enjoy painting,drawing and paper crafts. Also, we thought it would be fun to teach other children to be creative and to express themselves. We are teaching grades 2 to 4 so it won’t be too complicated. So far, We are working on our community home page in Units. We have Goals,Rules,a Mission Statement and the home page. We are almost finished. I hope you will explore our home page and look at all our hard work.

I am truly excited about making new friends in my community.I can’t wait to begin the Art Club!

Yours sincerely,

Hanna Gilmore
