Dear Parents and Students,
I
hope everyone enjoyed the 10/10 National Holiday. Despite the midweek break, we
have accomplished a great deal in class this week.
In Maths,
we are working through Topic 4, and have been reviewing what we know about
division. We will complete the topic next week, with the Topic Test to take
place on Wednesday. A cumulative test and a benchmark test will also take place
on Thursday and Friday respectively.
In our Literacy
Workshop we have begun planning our
Personal Narrative stories, and we will begin drafting on Monday. We will spend
most of the week working on the narratives, with an aim to publish on Thursday.
We are also continuing our study of nouns in our grammar lessons.
We have all but
completed our studies of the Earth in Science. Of course, we finished our week with a visit to the Taichung
Earthquake Museum, which has been a great opportunity to see real examples of
some of the effects of rapid surface changes to the Earth. Photos of our field
trip shall be posted shortly. Next week, we will spend some time studying the
water cycle and water as a natural resource, and then we will begin to review
the unit. A minor test will take place during the following week.
In Social
Studies, we have been reviewing all we have learned over the past six
weeks. Our first Social studies test will take place on the Tuesday, and then
we will move on to our next topic, which focuses on citizenship.
Next week will be
another busy one! Please check important dates below. Have a great weekend, and
I’ll see you all on Monday!
