Dear Parents and Students,<\/span><\/p>\n

Good afternoon and Happy Thursday.\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

Wow, how good was the Grade 6 Exhibition. Thank you for coming along and supporting the students for their exhibition. It was awesome and I know this was a very valuable experience at the same time as providing you with an opportunity to glimpse into their world, to see what they have been up to, what they can do and to share with them how proud you are of all that they have accomplished this year so far.<\/span><\/p>\n

Home learning<\/b><\/p>\n

During the G6 Exhibition unit, students will have personalized\/ individualized homework where they are required to work on their inquiries daily and to document their learning journey in relation to this. At the same time, students will continue to practice Mathematics basic facts, Reading and Spelling. I am pleased to say that this week we had a mathematics assessment survey and all students have shown growth and progress in this. This must mean they have been practicing for their homework.\u00a0 Well done everyone, Please also remember to sign your child\u2019s homework each week. Thank you.<\/span><\/p>\n

Reading, Writing and Inquiry<\/b><\/p>\n

This week students have continued to develop their ATL skills. In particular this week the focus has been on self management and research skills.<\/span><\/p>\n

This week was the performance and then the reflective piece of our exhibition process. Students first presented and then reflected on the process of completing the exhibition.\u00a0\u00a0<\/span><\/p>\n

As John Dewey said \u201c<\/span><\/p>\n

\u201cWe do not learn from experience \u2026 we learn from reflecting on experience.\u201d<\/b><\/p>\n

Our next unit of inquiry will begin next week. For this students will inquire into How we Express ourselves. A unit where students will investigate the different forms of Art, expression\u00a0 through art, the creation and interpretation of artifacts.<\/span><\/p>\n

Mathematics<\/b><\/p>\n

For Math this week students have continued to work on analyzing the math embedded in their unit of inquiry. For example creating pie charts about results from the surveys they sent out to collect information from other students about gaming and so on.<\/span><\/p>\n
