Term 1 Week 9 Update

Another busy week, with lots of learning going on as the students continue to work hard. Don’t forget the school will be having a Halloween part this Friday, which will be great fun.

This week in English, we started our new unit called ‘Lights, Cameras Action,’ with the main focus being play scripts. To start the unit and get the students excited about their learning; we visited the auditorium and used the stage to perform a short scene from Alice and Wonderland. We spent the rest of the week exploring Aladdin and the features of scripts.

This week in Math, we learnt about calculations that do not just consist of numbers. We used symbols and then letters to represent numbers in sums and found out the different values of these letters, we also looked at how we can substitute different values into equations to get other answers.

In IPC, we looked at Roman Villas; we built a model, wrote a persuasive piece and designed a floor plan. Also, we explored Roman buildings, we used the library to conduct research to find out about famous Roman architecture their purpose and their importance.
