Hello everyone
We are now in week 7 of the new school year and the students are very settled, working hard and producing excellent work.
In English this week, we continued our work on instruction writing. I wanted to link our English with our current IPC unit; we researched mythical creatures so we could write instructions on How to Catch one. We also explored connectives and prepositions.
In IPC, we spent much of this week researching the Persian Wars for our IPC lessons. The students used their research to create a timeline of key events. Also, we explored Ancient Greek theatre; the student made Greek threatre masks, ready for a performance next week.
This week in Math we finished our unit on special numbers by building a big triangle and guessing the next number of triangles in each line. We then started out the unit on averages, learning more about the mode, median, mean and range. The learners have the opportunity to make use of this new knowledge in a real-life situation making use of data collected in the class.
That’s all for this week, have a great weekend.
