Homework on 22 Sept 2015

1)English Test Paper 6

Things to note:
1) Consent forms for supplementary (whole class) class lessons were given out today. Main focus will be preparing the pupils for their upcoming oral examinations.
Feedback from SA1 oral examinations:
Reading aloud: Too fast when reading passage, not "sounding" out the end sounds of words, monotonous
Stimulus-based conversation:
Pupils tend to answer the question that is put forth to them and fail to elaborate by sharing their own opinions or experiences based on the theme of the question or pictures provided. Hesitant sharing.

Things to note for September School Holidays

Dear all,

Online assignments via MConline have been assigned.
Please clear the assignments.

(1) Math: 2 Revision Practices (about 8-10 questions each practice)
(2) English: 4 Editing Exercises (One of the weaknesses noticed from EL CA2 paper- Spelling)
     Through such exercises, they are exposed to more commonly used words in Primary 4 and in
     doing so, they will learn the correct spelling of such words (may not be found in Stellar).
(3) Science Learning package on Plant systems
We have already gone through the main learning points in the topic of Plant systems. With this learning package, the pupils can reinforce the concepts learnt before we return to school in Term 4.

Thank you!

Dear parents and pupils of 4 Exemplary,

Today, the school held a celebration for the teachers- Teachers' Day Celebration.

I would like to thank all pupils and parents who have given me gifts and I would like to say that I am thankful to be teaching this group of pupils too. They have been very motivated, are always willing to try new things with me and they really are very endearing to me.

In the afternoon, the inter-class volleyball competition was held and the girls came in second. WELL DONE!👍 I am aware that there were tears shed and conflicts arose during the course of the competitions. I will resolve them when school reopens. ( I was in a meeting when the competitions were held.)Having said this, I would like the pupils in 4 Exemplary gradually becoming more open to take up new challenges, be it academic or sports pursuits, to step out of their comfort zone and enjoy themselves in these pursuits . When I encourage the pupils to join inter-class competitions as a team, I  hope that they will appreciate teamwork and learn that at times, they need to consider the feelings of one another before making decisions, which I place more importance than winning. I truly believe that we learn better as a class.

Have a good rest and I will assign online tasks soon!☺ Remember the 5 questions on Science. I will go through the definitions on the words on Monday and please learn the words on the Spelling Bee list.

Then I will remember this,🍨! ;p

All of you have worked hard for CA2s. Do recharge during this school holidays and let's work together for SA2s.

Enjoy your school holidays and I will see you when school reopens.
