Week 10 - Monday 29^th June 2020

Dear Children,

Thank you for attending our live lesson on Friday. It was great to see so many of you and have Avril with us. For everyone who could not participate in the lesson, I have uploaded the recording into the google classroom. Also, I would like to thank everyone who posted their work as well as contributed constructively to our Stream discussions.

We have another busy and, hopefully, entertaining week ahead of us.

On Monday – in our IPC session on Great Ideas, we are going to look at the invention of film and cinematography. We will look at a brief history of cinema and the major milestones in its development.

On Tuesday – in Maths we are going to face some algebraic challenges.

On Wednesday - in Literacy, we are going to read a film review and you are going to be asked to write one.

On Thursday – in our SPAG, we will revise modal verbs.

On Friday – I am looking forward to our live lesson at 14.15.

All our lessons are taking place in our google classroom. I upload video lessons, slides and assignments daily, but you are welcome to revisit any of the lessons and assignments in the Classwork section, including the ones from previous weeks. I am always happy to receive your work, so please feel free to share it with me.

Also, I add exercises to you Accelerated Maths and Education City on regular basis. Please keep checking the google classroom for new assignments and announcements.

Stay well,

Marcin

Week 9 - Monday 22^nd June 2020

Dear Children,

I enjoyed “seeing” so many of you during our Friday “google meet” and I am pleased to report that I am very happy with your knowledge and understanding of ratios and proportions as well as the perfect tenses. Keep up the good work!

A busy and interesting week ahead of us so … ready, steady, GO!

On Monday, in our IPC lesson, I am going to introduce you to another great idea. This time we are going to China, circa 500 BCE and I will present you with one of the great Chinese masters: 孔夫子

We are going to study the five virtues and learn how to write them in Chinese characters. We are also going to apply them to our daily lives.

On Tuesday, more arithmetic revision.

On Wednesday, in our literacy lesson, we are going to look at character descriptions, with a particular focus on personality traits and virtues (or vices). You are going to be asked to describe a character.

On Thursday, we will continue revising tenses and this time, we are going to look at progressive forms.

On Friday, another live lesson and we may have it at 14.15 again, to include the children who are at the school. Look out for an announcement.

Also, look out for new reading comprehensions, number games and announcements in our google classroom.

As usual, thank you for all the work you are sharing with me. I really enjoy reading your writing so keep at it. I will be adding exercises to the Accelerated Maths and Education City so look out for new assignments this coming week. Do not forget about reading at least an hour every day. If you have any problems accessing the materials on-line, have any questions about exercises or the material we are covering, please do not hesitate to contact me via google classroom.

Stay well and “see” you on Monday!

Week 8 - Monday 15^th June 2020

Dear Children,

Again, I have really enjoyed our live lesson on Friday and I am so pleased that you have not forgotten your percentages, fractions and decimals. “Thank you” to everyone who attended and I have uploaded a recording of the lesson into the google classroom for everyone who could not be with us. Also, I would like to thank everyone who submitted the biographies, animal facts as well as the drawings.

We have an interesting week ahead of us and we will continue learning in the google drive.

On Monday, in our IPC lesson, in Great Ideas, we will learn about Prince Siddhārtha and his teachings.

On Tuesday we will continue revising arithmetics.

On Wednesday, in our Literacy lesson, we will look at fables and I will ask you to write one.

On Thursday, in SPAG, we will look at how the perfect tense is used in the past and the future.

And on Friday, we will have our live lesson, which I am already looking forward to.

Continue uploading and sharing your work, look out for daily number games in the Stream and do some work in Accelerated Maths and Education City. Try to do as much reading as you can as well.

Stay well and “see you” on Monday!

Marcin
