Upper Primary pupils are back at ISG and they are ready to learn a lot!
We are all very happy to see each other again! We have welcomed two new pupils in our class, Mieke and Zara. We look forward to a fantastic year together!
We talk about, and miss, pupils that were in Upper Primary last year and we hope that Vedant, Nothrathcha, Besma, Rotem, Bobette, Mai and Roos are all doing fine!
Since school started again last week Tuesday, Upper Primary pupils have already done a lot of different things. Upper Primary pupils have talked about learning and about things that keep their brains healthy and happy – sleep, healthy food, water and exercise. They have discussed feelings that help them learn and feelings that might make it more difficult to learn.
Our goal is to create a classroom atmosphere that help us learn a lot this year!
In IPC Upper Primary have started looking at the first Personal Goal, Respect. Both dictionaries and a text about a lost wallet helped pupils understand, discuss and agree on some important things to remember about Respect.
In Literacy pupils have read and discussed different types of poems. Words like haiku, syllables, rhyming and repetition have been used. Pupils have also started reviewing grammar, focusing on word classes like nouns, adjectives and verbs.
Upper Primary pupils have also loved listening to and discussing the book “The miraculous journey of Edward Tulane”. It was an amazing story! After reading the book, the class wrote a summary together.
In Numeracy pupils have worked with numbers and number value, addition, subtraction and multiplication. The new Abacus textbooks have just arrived and we are getting to know new routines for the weekly assignments in year 4 and 5.
On Tuesday afternoon Upper Primary pupils had their first Dutch class with Miss Marjolein. It was difficult to stop the lesson in time for home time, pupils were so excited learning!
On Friday morning all Primary pupils went to the Citadel Park for team building activities, play time and lots of fun! The sun was shining and we all had a great time together!
On Friday afternoon it was time for the first School Assembly and Upper Primary pupils ended the week with their first PE lesson with Miss Naomi.
What a great start of the school year! Upper Primary pupils are already looking forward to next week!
Have a nice weekend!
