Update week 7

As we are getting to our IMYC unit the students are working hard on several exit point to demonstrate what they have learnt during the unit. For Technology the students planned and prepared a vegetarian or vegan meal with a budget of 40 000 won. The students divided themselves into two groups and both did exceptionally well to produce great meals.

For Science the students are busy preparing something to show a clear understanding of a scientific concept, the students can use a method of their choosing to demonstrate their understanding. We also had loads of fun making and playing with non-newtonian fluids. In History the students are using some research skills along with skills acquired in English to create presentations about the consequences of WWII on the Korean peninsula.

During Math we are working with fractions, percentages and ratios, that is leading us into direct and inverse proportions and the use of equations to solve mathematical problems.

In English we improved our writing by looking at different ways to use sentence openers and connectives to create more engaging text when writing. We also had a look at presentation skills do’s and don’ts. The students then had the opportunity to create a presentation and deliver it while being recorded so that we can do self assessments next week to tie into our core value for the week, Growth Mindset.

That is all for this week.
