G5 Puppet Shows

During their exhibition, Grade 5 students can choose a variety of different ways to share their global issues. Possibilities include posters, movies, acting, singing, artwork, puppet shows and anything else you can think of. Today, we had some fun with puppets and discovered that sharing ideas using puppets was much harder than expected!






It was also a lot of fun!

G2/3 Express Themselves

Grades 2-5 have all been practicing expressing themselves this week. We have looked at various paintings and answered the following questions about them:

1. Do you like it? Why? Why not?
2. How does it make you feel?
3. What does it make you think of?

We have also been working hard to learn new words to help us express ourselves more clearly. One activity that we did was matching adjectives to paintings.


We had fun sharing why we chose certain words for certain paintings, and it was interesting to hear our different perceptions of the same paintings.

Nikor shared some interesting ideas about all of the paintings and even
turned them round to see them from different perspectives.

Hyun Ho matched the word muddy to this painting, because he said it 
looked like a special day for them; they were having a party and dancing outside.  


 Kim Chhoung said this painting made him feel like he was in an
opposite dimension and had gone through a portal to another place.

G4/5 Punctuation Kung-Fu in Action

In this clip, Kyung Won and Jun perform a short extract, adding punctuation in real-time. Can you work out which kung-fu moves are used for the different types of punctuation? We have full stops, commas, question marks, speech marks and exclamation marks in this extract. Enjoy!

Jae Hoon starts the week off well!

During the Chinese New Year break, Jae Hoon read some books. He chose one of them and created a poster about it, which he brought in to school this morning. He was a super risk-taker, because he agreed to present his work to his peers, despite feeling rather shy about it. Great job Jae Hoon!!


Great presentation!

G4/5 Outtakes

Things don't always go to plan...






G4/5 - international organisations

Grade 4/5 EAL students have been researching international organisations that help with the global issues they have chosen to study. After finding out about their organisations, they presented their research to their peers.








Well done to Nikor!

Nikor is setting a great example to his peers and has just received his certificate for reading for 75 nights. Well done!
