grade-5A (2018-2019)

In English, literature study began. Students reflected on the cover page and started writing their stories. Students also looked at reviewing a book and what are the approaches towards reviewing a book. In unit of inquiry students had researched on Indus Valley civilisation and they reflected on the characteristics of Indus Valley Civilisation. In Maths students revised basic operations, factors and multiples. A new topic- co-ordinates was introduced last week. Students plotted the points on the four quadrants. In addition to the above, on Saturday there was the Maths Mela and below are some snapshots of the same: A big thanks to Ms Zoya Fatima for emailing the photographs to me.

This week students were assessed in Maths (place-value, expansion and rounding), English (creative writing), unit of inquiry (first line of inquiry of the unit on civilisation). Apart from the above, students practised factors and multiples through manupulativs and rounding of numbers. Below are some photographs of the same: As it can be seen in the photograph below, students were thoroughly engaged in this activity as they were able to explore in various different ways and explain it to their peers. In unit of inquiry students read the assigned pages through gig-saw reading and created a mind-map of their understanding on archaeology. They followed it up with a gallery walk in order to understand each other's observation and knowledge about archaeology and archaeologists. Below are some photographs of the same. There are some videos shared by Ms Sushmita in regard to the Hindi activities in class: https://youtu.be/OaRDoLy2oyA https://youtu.b
