A week of learning

This week’s learning

By: Calidina, Juliana, and Zereach

Ms Lynn Narrative Writing Lesson

This week we had to write a narrative writing piece. We had to use onomatopoeia, simile and a question to hook the reader in, for our first paragraph. A paragraph needs to have three sentenceses or more. We also add a thesis statement such as ‘ in my opinion’ because it will grab your reader's attention. On our second, third and last  paragraph we wrote about one opinion statement why homework is a bad idea or a good idea.

ISA Test   

                                                           

On the 3rd-4th of October 2017, we did the ISA test also known as the International Schools’ Assessment we got all of the knowledge from our learning before the ISA test. We couldn’t cheat or look at others’ answers because they might be wrong. We started with a brain exercise from go noodle to warm up and get ready for the ISA test.

Grade 5 ATLs. Approaches to learn

For Grade 5 activities we went into our groups and we are supposed to go to the classrooms where we do the activities. In each room we get to do different activities like doing drama, how to spot fake news and reading different news. We did this because we might use them in exhibition. We do different activities every Friday.

Math

This week we did multiplication madness. We had to find out how many days, hours, minutes and seconds in a month, year or week. We did the multiplication madness because we can show how we can use multiplication work out large calculations.

We also did bingo. Bingo is also a part of math. In bingo we had to round the numbers up.

Scientific  Principles

On Monday we wrote instructions about how to make a science experiment. We also had to know our scientific principle so we can tell our audience what happened during our experiment. On Friday the class made a new experiment. We can’t make same experiments because we didn’t want to see the same experiment twice.

What’s Inside?

We use a telescope to see what is inside of different kinds of items like a rubber, clothes and more. We wrote what we can see inside the telescope on our notebook so we can record everything we can see. Inside the telescope we can see different thing like germs and dirt on the rubber.
