Dear Parents,  We had fun preparing our props for YEP. We also worked on acting in our play. We gave each other feedback to improve, such as speaking with expression or facing the audience. We went to the Naniwa Center for a rehearsal and practiced where to stand on the stage. The students are very excited to perform! A reminder to please read the email from the office and fill in the form. We also reviewed multiplication and division strategies. We practiced answering reading comprehension questions and brainstormed ideas for fictional narrative writing. Thank you, Ms. Stacy.

It was a good opportunity to improve our communication skills.  We looked at some art pieces and practiced interpreting and evaluating art. Thank you, Ms. Stacy.

English: We practiced writing personal narratives. We also looked at some poems and identified examples of figurative language: similes, metaphors, personification, and idioms. Maths: We worked on our problem solving skills. We looked at different types of questions and worked in teams to solve them. We also practiced checking our answer after we write to see if it makes sense. UOI: We researched the elements of art and made posters to show our understanding. We presented what we learned to the rest of the class. We also brainstormed ideas for YEP. We practiced describing and analysing art
