Creative Learning and Festive Fun!

Dear Parents, Guardians, and Friends,

As we reach the end of an eventful term, it's a pleasure to share the highlights from our Upper Primary 2 class, filled with creative projects, scientific exploration, and festive teamwork.

Art and Craft with Papier-Mâché

We started the term with an art project where students created colourful bowls using papier-mâché. This task was not just about art; it also taught patience and attention to detail as students worked with layers of coloured paper.

Exploring Ecology through Literature

In our literature studies, we focused on 'Fourteen Wolves: A Rewilding Story' by Catherine Barr. The students learned about the impact of wolf reintroduction on Yellowstone National Park and expressed their understanding through informative posters. These posters provided a visual insight into how the reintroduction of wolves affected the park's ecosystem.

Science Meets Technology

In our IPC Science task, students explored natural selection and evolution. They started with the story of the peppered moth and then used Google Slides to create digital environments and 'beetles', applying their scientific understanding in a personalised context.

Jingle Olympics: Teamwork and Fun

To wrap up the term, we had the first "Jingle Olympics". This was a series of fun team activities, including 'Who Am I?', 'Candy Cane Zipline', and 'Candy Cane Drop', where students worked together to complete festive challenges. These activities required coordination, communication, and teamwork, all within a festive atmosphere. We also had a quiz on festive traditions, adding to the fun and learning.

Looking Forward

This term at ISG has been a wonderful blend of learning, creativity, and fun. We’ve seen our students grow not just in their academic knowledge but also in their teamwork and problem-solving skills. As we look forward to the next term, we are excited for more adventures and opportunities to learn, grow, and celebrate together.
