Well done to all of our students who competed at the TISAC primary badminton competition yesterday. Especially T-rex, who won a Gold Medal in the singles U11. Great work T-rex! 5P BAKED A HUGE AMOUNT OF TASTY BREAD FROM DIFFERENT COUNTRIES AS PART OF THEIR END OF TOPIC FEAST. AFTER SOME RESEARCH THEY DECIDED TO MAKE PIZZA FROM ITALY, NAAN FROM INDIA, SODA FROM IRELAND AND SCONES FROM SCOTLAND. YUM! Last week 5P learned about molecules and how the behave in solids, liquids and gases. The students acted like molecules, the gained energy when they were heated and slowed when they were cooled.
Can you see from the pictures what state of matter they are representing? This week we have had a lot of successful students, competing in the cross country events and also outside of school in various competitions.
Well done to Trex who won the second runner up in Boy Double U11 with 40 opponents at "JIB Badminton Youth 2018" Pathumthani. and Veronica for completing her 5K run in a Very Speedy 20 minutes at BITEC Bangna. Last week was International Art week and we had a fantastic time, studying artists from North America. First we looked at Native American tribal art (Haida) and made totem poles with symbolic animals and creatures. Next, we studied Andy Warhol's contemporary pop-art and created our own printed self portraits. Finally, we looked at the abstract expressionist 'drip paintings' of Jackson Pollock, which inspired us to paint our own drip creations. Which is your favourite? Year 5 celebrated Pi day on Wednesday with lots of Mathematical challenges. They used their knowledge of Pi to find the circumference of a circle and their knowledge of inverse operations to find the diameter of a circle by dividing the circumference by Pi.
Well done 5P! Tricky maths... Year 5 have been learning the Japanese art of Happa Zome. They collected plants and flowers then hammered them to make an imprint on cloth. This was a very noisy but fun lesson! |
