    1. Hi Ruben,
      Good morning! It’s good to see you up and ready to work.
      You do not need to write the questions for the reading activity, but make sure you number the questions and label the activity clearly with the title of the article.

  1. Hi Libby Charlie here i would just like to say that the links to the reading question i cannot get to them because it says i need to be a administrator. Thanks

    1. Are you using the links on the blog, email or OneNote?
      The one on the blog seems to work… but the OneNote one is having problems.
      I’ll look into it.
      Libby

  2. Hi Libby Charlie again i tried doing it throw the blob but it said i don’t have permission to enter it and when i press OK it go’s away and it doesn’t show up.

  3. hi,
    do i have to do the extra activity in reading and if so, does that mean i have to do a book response?
    isla

    1. I would like you to share one book you have read and enjoyed recently. You don’t need to do a full book response, but just a few sentences telling us why you would recommend the book. If you can add it to the table on OneNote in the collaboration space then we can all benefit from your recommendation.

    1. Hi Cleo,
      Sorry, I was stuck in a meeting.
      What do you mean?
      There are 2 activities – the APK which is a “date maths” activity and the Application which is ordering numbers. What are you stuck on?
      Libby
