Last week was a very busy week in PYP 5:
- The week started with a treat from the OLINCA School from Mexico! Students from Olinca School are spending some time here in Brazil hosted by St. Francis families and they prepared and presented an assembly to the whole primary.
- Parents started to come to school at different times to help the students in producing their items to sell in the St. Francis Bazaar! The class representatives are organizing it with parents. If you would like to take part and come during the school day to help as well, please contact the class representative from your class.
- Students could listen to a storyteller from New Zealand and learn a little bit about their culture, trying out some mevements and chants.
- It was PYP 5 Beta and PYP 5 Omega's assembly! Thank you very much for all the support from home, helping students to learn their lines and practise. Congratulations to all students involved!
- In the classroom, students have been reflecting about teamwork and how to work as a group. They were given the tower challenge where each group had to build the highest structure possible using only newspaper and tape. It was a learning experience focused on working collaboratively to encourage planning, communication of ideas and team work. There were some interesting ideas, unexpected outcomes and lots of fun around the class, but above all, students were able to itentify what makes a good team work.
Have a great week!
