Term 3 Week 7 Update

Hello everyone,

We are into the final few weeks of the final term of this academic year, but there is still so much learning and fun going on.

We are coming to the end of our IPC units; we have been creative with some extra art and music lessons around our rainforest unit. For art, the students needed to create a rainforest scene; they had to choose an image for inspiration. I was super impressed with the effort put in; they carefully drew their picture first and then thought carefully about the colours to add with paint, pencils or pens. For the music lesson, they had to recreate rainforest sounds using musical instruments or objects around the school. They worked in groups at first before we came together as a class to record each sound, and finally, we recorded all the sounds together.

In maths, we revised addition and subtraction this week, going back over the different methods. Also, we had some fun, looking at word problems, each solution led to a digit they needed to crack the code.

In English, the students continued to be persuasive as they made adverts, posters and letters, using a variety of persuasive techniques.

That’s all for this week, have a great weekend.
