Independence Centre

Highlight

Selamat sore 3/4 families!

Welcome to your weekly Independence Centre report!

This week in Guided Inquiry we continued our research on our topics and began creating our information pieces. There have been different topics such as the history of phones, galaxies and Covid 19. Everyone is so excited to show their creativity through posters, videos and models!

In Maths we learnt about fractions. We ordered fractions on a number line and also learnt about equivalent fractions. 

In English we have been writing our speeches for debates. We made our arguments more convincing by adding high modality words and including evidence. You will be able to watch our debates on SeeSaw!
