Term 1 Week 8 Update

Hello everyone.

The fun and learning never stops as we reach the end of week 8. Please, keep checking the newsletter for more information about everything going on at school. On the 28th October, the school will be having a Halloween party, a fun event for students to dress, play games and have a few treats.

We have completed our unit ‘Tell me How’ about instructional writing. The students spent a lot of this week writing a leaflet with a set of instructions included. Also, each student checked their work against the success criteria and made improvements.

In IPC, the students created a quick script so they could role-play using the Ancient Greek theatre masks. Also, the students spent a lesson looking at Alexander the Great and his achievements. At the end of the week, we moved on to Ancient Rome; we looked at how the Empire was governed.

In Math, this week we completed our unit on averages and wrote the end-of-unit test to check our understanding. We started a new unit about adding and subtracting to improve our speed and accuracy for adding decimals and positive and negative numbers.
