Hats off to our Grade 4 parents!
For months, the classroom's set up has been changed more than five times. It was really challenging to come up and maintain classroom set up for a long time. But, thanks to all the parents who volunteered to do spring cleaning last Wednesday, 12 February 2020.
The parents, esp the moms, shared their expert opinion about space and how space can contribute to the learning of the students. They helped in arranging the furniture and also disinfected and cleaned the classroom materials.
The Grade 4s were surprised togo back to a new classroom after their PE.
Thanks a lot Moms!
How maps help us understand events
On Friday, Grades 3 and 4 learned from our expert guest speaker, Mrs. Petra Steiners about the reunification of East and West Germany. Mrs. Steiners shared her knowledge about that big historical event that changed and affected the whole of Germany and the world. She also explained how the map of Germany and Berlin reflect the divided Germany before and how the new map looks like at present.
It was a meaningful experience also for teachers as we got more inputs added to our bank of knowledge.
Thank you, Mrs. Steiners!

Making Landscapes in Art Class
The students were fortunate to have one of the class parents, Mr. L. Nepomuceno to teach them (Grades 3 and 4) how to make paper mache. The finished products are still wet so they need to wait for a couple more days before they can paint their work. :)
Map Experts Gallery Walk
Last Monday, the students presented what they are able to collect about the type of map of their choice. They chose also to be creative in their ways by using various means of sharing their understanding. The class made video, booklets, pop-books, poster, etc. of their research. They were displayed in the classroom and everybody went around to learn from other experts. They also provided constructive feedback on other groups' outputs.
