Swimming and Football This week

 PE/ Swimming

We had a special event this week for our swimming class. A swimming Teacher from the Nong Bua football club came to work with us. It was a lot of fun.

























Handwriting


The children were practicing how to join the letter “a” to the letter

 “b” today and then how we join “ab” to other words.  Next we will

 practice how a, c and k join together.










Library


This is a great time to unwind and sit down with a book. The

 learners always like being in the library. A reminder that this week

 we must return our books and that we cannot check out any books

 next week.


















Assembly


This week Year 1 reminded us all about what we can do to be

 internationally minded learners. Our class focused on being 

caring human beings and shared our thoughts and pictures about

what that meant to us. We then presented our work to the school.














English

We were reminding ourselves how to edit our work after we have

 completed writing a story. We focused on where and when we

 should use full stops and capital letters. Others in the group were

 given the opportunity to write their own report, focusing on makin

g sure that the work they wrote was written in the past tense. Next

 week we will investigate what we must include  to create an

 informational poster.

UOI

We have been finding out how organization operate. We learned

 about how a government is formed. We then decided to have a

 vote for a class president. The children created campaign posters

 and gave speeches as to why they should be class president and

 what they would do for year 2/3. After we heard everyone’s

 promises, the children had a private vote as to whom should be

 their president. It was a great learning experience.







Maths

We were learning how to measure distances and shapes. Following

 this we researched what perimeter is. Then we were able to

 discover the perimeter of shapes and spaces at our school. Next

 week we will be measuring again, however this time we will be

 measuring weight.

We also took part in a worldwide math extravaganza and competed

 with other learners all over the world. It was a fun time in our

 maths class to be a risk taker and join in this activity. There will be

 certificates awarded at a later date for this activity.

 















FYI

Student Led Conferences

We have been preparing for this very important

 day. The learners will guide you through their

 portfolio of work and explain to you some of the

 things they have been learning about so far this

 year. We look forward to seeing you next week.

Welcome To Week Four Hello to you all. We are now back on track and everyone is enjoying being with their friends and learning with them,  back at school.  Congratulations These people have all been busy using our "Study Ladder" app.  At various points along their learning journey, in "Study Ladder," the children are awarded certificates to highlight their progress.  Well done to you all!!! FEBRUARY We came outside to observe our calendar and discuss the unusualness of the month of February. We noted the spelling of the word and I pointed out the silent "r" that many adults forget about! We then had a guess at how many days there were in February and the discussed the reason that there are 29 days every four years in this month.  The learners thought that it was very strange that we could just add another day on to a month. PSPE The class discussed the word "Teamwork." We then shared our ideas about what makes a good team, what jobs are ...

The videos were sent out via the line group this week. Maths This week we have been discovering what fractions are, and how we can write them as numbers. We have learned about halves, quarters and thirds. We learned about the words "denominator" and "numerator" fractions are also useful when we are talking bout telling the time and that is what we will be investigating next week.

Congratulations Well done to the students who have worked on "Study Ladder" during our qurentine period. these activities are extra learning fun to emphasie the learning that we do in class. This week we were learning about right angles and the different ways that we can reposition shapes. Next week we will be focusing on learning our three time table and properties of three dimensional shapes, as we hope to add the knowledge of angles we learnt this week. English Writing  Our writing has two focuses at the moment. We are trying to improve our grammar and editing skills as well as write interesting stories. This week we started a story online and completed it at school. We asked the children to write about their feelings about learning online. They were able to say why they liked or disliked this situation. Next week we will continue to focus our attention on increasing the amount of words that we write in a story and try to edit the story as best as we can.   Maths ...
