Year 6 Term 2 Week 12 Blog

We have now completed week 2 of our virtual learning sessions. This week I would like to commend the learners for their hard work and for their engagement in our virtual learning lessons. They continue to grow in confidence using Google Classroom, Flipgrid and other resources. The children have been sharing some videos and photos of their work with me and I have attached a few to this blog for the parents to see. For any Flipgrid videos parents will have to ask their child to login to their accounts to view the videos.

In English this week the children worked on different reading and writing activities. They completed a unit on building their skills in grammar. For next week the learners will continue working on similar activities to build their writing and reading comprehension skills. The children have also been assigned to at least 20 minutes of independent reading each day.

In UOI class the learners continued to research and build their knowledge on human migration that is taking place around the world. Towards the end of this week the children were assigned to a group project where they are working together to complete 11 different tasks relating to human migration. This will be an excellent opportunity for the learners to develop their social skills while taking part in virtual learning.

In Maths class the learners have completed their unit on problem solving in the beginning of the week. They have also took part in 4 different activities dealing with multi-digit multiplication and subtractions of numbers with decimals. Next week the learners will begin working on a new concept.

The Science of Gardening

Term 3 Week 1 : The Science of Gardening This week we have been excitedly planning how to get the school vegetable garden back into a productive state. We’re tying this into our unit of inquiry on scientific developments. Central Idea : Scientific knowledge is constantly evolving and has an impact on people's lives. During this inquiry students are each taking on various aspects of developing our school vegetable patch. They are forming scientific questions related to the garden and applying a simple form of the scientific process. 1. Ask a question 2. Predict an answer. 3. Create a test to find the answer. (observe, measure, compare) 4. Share the findings. The biggest question on our minds so far is how to keep the soil watered when we are away over the holidays. This will probably involve creating some simple machines to do the job. Students are reading about solutions to this issue. At the moment we’re not very knowledgeable about gardening, and...
