Grade 5/6: Week 31: Sharing The Planet

Thank you all for coming to International Children's Day last weekend! We had such a great time sharing our exhibition with you. Here are some photos from the day:















Week 31 Sharing the Planet Grade 3

Our central idea is that "signs and symbols are a part of human made systems that facilitate local and global communication." Our girls are designing a car for our final "Celebration of Learning." The green circles on this picture are where the headlights will be. We will be doing a 3 minute rendition of the first scene of the movie musical entitled "LA La Land." 
 Much thought went into the process of changing the scale of the car. 
 This project is taking a lot of self-management skills. 
One of the templates was cut out and will be traced onto a huge piece of cardboard. 
Today, we tried out for the relay team for our upcoming Sports Day. 
The warm weather provided ideal running conditions and gave us confidence.
Everybody had great form, tried their best and cooperated!
Click on the movie icon to watch one of us run. Leyla, Eren, and Sumire ended up making the relay team.

Grade One Week 31: Sharing the Planet

This week Grade One planted 6 bean plants in different conditions to learn about what plants need to grow. After planting the beans, they made predictions about what will happen to each plant from now until the end of the school year.









This week we designed and made our own clocks to use during math.







Practicing for the Undokai. 



Saving water


We have been inquiring into how we can save water. We investigated where we had water in the school, and we checked to make sure nobody was wasting water.
