Unit of Inquiry
单元探究
We have been establishing what it means to be a role model, what that looks like in our classroom, school and community. Many of the children have described how their family members are their role model and how they have been shown what doing the right thing looks like. We also discussed a good versus a bad role model. We talked about what the differences are whilst the students discovered that even at their age they can be agents of change. We have had fun making a dream catcher which is from the traditional beliefs of Native Indian Americans. The students have also thought about if they were a superhero what their super power would be and how that would improve our world.
我们已经建立了行为榜样的概念,在班级里,在学校以及在社会上行为榜样是什么样子。许多孩子已经描述了在他们家庭里行为榜样是怎样的,同时也展示了正确行为规范。我们同样也把正确的行为与错误行为进行了鲜明的对比,同学们通过讨论,发现了它们的区别。在制作dream catcher 关于追梦人的手工作品中,我们度过了非常愉快的时光,它源于印第安的一种传统信念,同学们进行了设想和讨论,如果他们是超级英雄,他们会如何运用他们的超能力来改造他们所在的世界。
Math
数学
In Math we have looked at bar graphs and how we can use these to interpret information that we collect. We have spent lots of time on our addition and subtraction which are essential basic operations that are useful in everyday life. We have worked on the use of words in math and how we explain our numbers using words. Mental math has become part of the routine to try to encourage fluency with number thinking.
在数学上,我们专注于柱状图表,我们是如何运用柱状条形图表来表达我们所搜集的信息。我们用了大量的时间来学习加法和减法,这是我们日常生活中最基础的数学运算,我们学习了数学专用词语,如何解释我们运用的数字。头脑数学已经成为了我们日常数学学习的一部分,我们鼓励学生增强对于数字思考的流畅性。
English language
英语语言
During our English language classes we have enjoyed working out the difference between a sentence and a phrase. We have reflected on the correct way to write a sentence ensuring we use capitalization and punctuation correctly. With regard to reading comprehension skills, the students have been using graphic organizers to establish what a story is and the key features that make up such a narrative. We have English spelling tests each Friday morning. The spelling lists used have words from our Unit of Inquiry, high frequency words and words which follow a pattern.
在英语语言课上,我们讨论学习了句子和短语的区别,我们思考了书写正确句子的方式,比如使用大写字母和正确运用标点符号。在阅读理解技巧方面,学生已经学会如何用形象的词语去讲述一个故事,用关键性的特征去叙述故事。在每周五的早上,我们都会有一个英语拼写测试,拼写测试的单词都源于我们单元探究词汇以及课上出现的高频词汇。
