Short and Sweet Week




Though this was only a ‘three days’ week, it still has some exciting things to share with you all. Students went on a nature walk and were guided to collect three artefacts from nature. After they came back the students were provided with some questions to reflect on by the teacher. Students were given a choice to present their understanding either through writing or speaking (oral presentation) or by using any other ICT tools. This activity was done collaboratively with the other section. Students were also given a choice if they would like to work in pairs or be on their own.




  Ms Sue (Dr Long’s wife) was also with us during a couple of lessons where she helped some of our students with their inquiry. Thank you, Ms Sue!



Our reading session was done by Ms Robin again this week, where she read aloud some verses of funny poems with us. Please ask your child why they were funny and they will tell you about it.







 As you all know, we also had a parent session this week and I am hoping it was fruitful for all of us. Please find some of the pictures from the session in this post. Also, there are pictures of your children hiding those colourful papers for the treasure hunt activity.





We had a good time having you all with us, hope the feeling was the same for you. Happy weekend and a great week ahead!

Monday this week began with the assembly on launching the ‘Peace Week’. As we have the International Day of Peace on 21 st of September, Ms Latha, Ms Nivedita and I came up with some activities for the whole school- grade-wise and shared them with everyone through the assembly. Student council members helped us to introduce these activities to all. In ICT, students learned to create a timeline on an app called ‘Popplet lite’. They created their own life’s timeline initially. Later, the next day, they used the same app for their research on Heritage to create a timeline on ‘Rulers of Hyderabad’. The other centres were as follows:                 Identify shapes and patterns from the resource books provided and draw them in their books.  Research on the dressing style of people to compare and contrast east from west. Interview one of the members in your group about their food habits and make connections with the research on...

Celebration of Learning and Talent

This month began with a bash and is continuing to be so much fun for all of us in Grade-3. Beginning with preparing for the 'Bazaars of Hyderabad' and to witness it coming into reality in both the classrooms was marvelous. The buzzing streets of the 'Bazaars of Hyderabad' was much appreciated by all the spectators and visitors. It was a formative assessment for the students of Grade-3 and students from Grade-9 were the assessors. Each and every individual who came to the bazaars were appreciative of the hard work our students have invested in these markets, may it be their research finding or their presentations. Right from the students in Grade-1 to Grade 9, adults including teachers both from Junior and Senior schools, parents, Ms. Latha and Ms. Chloe were all in awe. In Maths, we continue to practice and solve addition and subtraction problems. The strategy of rounding was introduced last week. Students enjoye...
