Week of 14/9

Dear Parents,

We are reaching the end of our first unit and building up excitement for the second unit of the school year! More information details to be provided! Please make sure your children are reading their books every night for at least twenty minutes. Engage with their reading to make it an enjoyable experience for everyone. Some ideas to make connections with the reading can be:

-Play with voices and sound out words.
-Observe capitalisations and punctuation marks.
-Observe words with the a / an article.

Please find the homework for Language and Maths this week:

Your child will receive one of the following worksheets for Language.
Language Homework 14/9 (To be assigned on Monday - due on Tuesday).

MyImaths: Number / Add Subtract Mental / 2 number facts and doubles (To be assigned on Friday - due on Monday).

Students understand the difficulties people with visual or physical impairment can go through. Furthermore, students realise the responsibility we have to create equal opportunities to all people despite their conditions.
 PYP 5 Sigma listens to various sounds and songs with blindfolds. 

PYP 5 Omega experience the responsibility of taking a student around school with a wheelchair

PYP 5 Beta experience walking up and down stairs blindfolded.

The PYP5 and PYP4 pupils have joined efforts and launched a buddy reading project every Friday to help each other out in reading. Paired reading is a research-based fluency strategy used with readers who lack fluency. In this strategy, students read aloud to each other. When using partners, more fluent readers can be paired with less fluent readers, or children who read at the same level can be paired to reread a story they have already read. Paired reading can be used with any book, taking turns reading by sentence, paragraph, page or chapter.


Should you have any questions or concerns, please send us a message through your child's diary.

Have a great week!
