Highlight
Selamat siang,
Thank you to all the families who joined us for the Christmas concert on Wednesday night, we hope you had a lovely time. The students shone on stage, and we are incredibly proud of their hard work and enthusiasm.
In English, students explored the features of front and back book covers and discussed what makes a book engaging for readers. They also enjoyed editing and publishing the narratives they have been developing over the past few weeks. As part of our Guided Inquiry project, students used online design tools such as Canva to create information posters, experimenting with fonts, images, shapes, and other design elements.
In Maths, we investigated probability through a range of chance experiments. Students calculated the likelihood of different outcomes using spinners, counters, and dice, representing these probabilities as fractions. They also had the opportunity to design their own chance experiments and explore what makes an activity fair or unfair.
