It’s great to have the boys back on site again. For their first Science project of the term, they have been taking care of plants and also trying to grow some grass.
Grade 3 – Science
The students in Grade 3 visited the Science Lab last week to learn about the differences between Erosion and Weathering.
Grade 5 – Reading Exercise
In EIP grade 5 English, students recently read 20,000 Leagues Under the Sea. Students made ‘flap booklets’ with pictures and descriptions of characters and settings from the story, chosen by each student. The teacher checked students’ writing before they finalized and turned in their projects. As with this particular topic, novel studies can be effective for teaching vocabulary, grammar, literary elements and creativity in writing and art.”
Grade 3 – Making Scratch Games.
Scratch is an excellent free platform that allows young learners to learn coding through dragging and dropping “blocks” in an easy to learn interface. Through this website, students can create animations and games very quickly.
In class, Grade 3 were having fun making a Dodgeball game where the character has to move to avoid randomly dropping balls from the sky.
