Yet AGAIN 4th class are doing AMAZING work at home :)

A quick 4th class message:

Image
Despite not being in school due to the global pandemic, it is clear to see that the children in 4th class are working tremendously hard! From exercising with Joe, baking, making home board games, school projects and helping out as much as we can for our parents at home.  Here are some pictures I received of all the TERRIFIC work being done at home. We hope everyone is keeping well and safe from near and far. We know this is a very difficult time but by following social distancing and keeping up good hygiene etiquette, we will be reunited together very soon. So, keep up the great work!  We are all in this together! :)

Teaching lessons for Dojo points

Image
Nina cashed in her dojo points today to complete a quiz with the whole class. There was 11 questions and we were in four teams. Nina based some of the questions on what we had completed in class, but also included ones that teacher was unsure of! Do you know what Arachnophobia or Panophobia means?

Fantastic work completed on Romania by 4th class

Fantastic work completed by the 4th class children on their intercultural  project. We learned about the different types of Romanian foods, sports, historical stories and music. We showed off brilliant team work and really got in touch with our creativity side. We thoroughly enjoyed doing this.

Check out some of our points! Would you be persuaded??

Image
For the past few weeks we have been learning about persuasive writing and how to persuade a person to our point of view. Today 4th class were given a task where they had to look at the statement: "Children should do homework everyday!" but looking at different points of view. One group had to put themselves into the shoes of teachers, the second group had to put themselves into the shoes of their parents and the final group had to look at it at the point of view of a child. We discussed these in our groups and then listened to the point of views of the other groups. Some very IMPRESSIVE points were made!! There are definitely some world leaders in 4th class!!

In 4th class we "Cycle Right"

Image
Thanks to Richard and Leeroy for coming into 4th class and teaching us the importance of cycling properly on the road. We learned how to signal properly, and how to position ourselves on the road. We had lots of fun doing this and we even had our own "crossroads junction" in our basketball court, in order to put our skills to the test.
