This week in UOI, our little scientists did various light and sound experiments in the classroom. Students were divided into three groups and researched on the following topics: Heat energy, Light energy & Sound energy. They researched and shared their understanding before the whole class. The Final Outcome :) In Math, we continued with fraction this week. We did center activity on fraction. There were four centers i.e. Ipad, Worksheet, Game and Fraction kit. Our kids enjoyed all the activities.  Students were also introduced to Numerator and Denominator in fraction. Then in another Math lesson, the teacher dictated a fraction and the student had to show their understanding by drawing it in their Math notebook.  I have introduced MATH TALK in our classroom. The students can talk with their friends about any Math problem and ask them different questions related to it. Please encourage your kids at home to a

In UOI, students learnt about the QR reader app. They had to scan a barcode which led them to a video link. They watched the video and wrote about it in their UOI notebook. It was a very fun learning engagement for our kids.  We had Mr. Subhadip as our Guest Speaker. Through various musical instruments, he enlightened the students on the properties of sound. Students learnt about pitch, noise, vibration, decibel, frequency. Students visited the Science lab to deepen their understanding on the properties of heat and light. They performed simple experiments and learnt about Reflection, Refraction, Solar panels, Electricity from lemon or other vegetables (Bio cells).  Students did a reflection on their visit to the Science Lab. In Math, fraction was introduced to students. They were asked to draw a pizza with their favourite toppings. They were asked to share it equally with their immediate partner.
