We love you 6C, we do… oohhhhh 6C we love you. Class 6C showed great determination and skill to defeat bitter rivals 6E in the Gr. 6 intramural basketball championships. There was plenty of anticipation before the game, and to be honest we were a bit scared because in the previous game, 6E had thrashed [...]

Today, we got started on our summative assessments. Apparently, the teachers were having a hard time deciding what task(s) would be the most appropriate and relevant to the success criteria and the central idea, “The organization and operation of a marketplace is determined by the communities in which they are located.” Ms. Fenton split us into [...]

For 5 days, my book club read and discussed the book The Cat Ate My Gymsuit, by Paula Danziger. The story is about Marcy Lewis, a thirteen-year-old girl who thinks that she is ugly and fat. She has an abusive father and it seems her parents are always fighting. Marcy only has one friend, Nancy [...]

On June 1st we got our groups for a imaginary pool proposal project on the 3rd floor play area. My group comprised of Anna and Mark. First, we made a group name Y.A.M. Second, we figured out the data we needed to collect and what we needed to measure on the 3rd floor. We wanted [...]

On Thursday May 26, our class had a day of exploration, which was a day for us to explore into something that we wanted to know more about, such as music videos, book trailers, movie trailers, etc. I did a review in photos of my soccer teams (Eastern Fc’s trip to Portugal/England Easter 2011.

For the literacy part of our history unit, we did historical fiction. Our teacher said he wanted a historical fiction without text, which is basically a digital story. We had to write it based on the exhibit topic wide used a few weeks ago, and my were the Ancient Greeks. First, I found a some [...]

For our history unit tune-in, we went to the Happy Valley Cemetery to find out more about Hong Kong’s past. Then, we each made a brief presentation about the highlights.

We did a series of tuning in projects on polygons for our upcoming unit of geometry, and I learned a few things. First I learned that polygons have to pass certain requirements to be known as a polygon, through a BrainPop video. A polygon has to have 3 or more sides, and has to be a [...]

This is my Children’s Rights PSA (Public Service Announcement). We each had to choose a right from the UN Convention of the Rights of the Child, and make a PSA out of it. I chose Article 8. You have the right to proper nutrition and proper health care.

Recently we have completed a set of Literature Circle Meetings on the book The Breadwinner, by Deborah Ellis . Last year we were honored to have her visit our school for an author visit. She visits a lot of the settings that she writes about, such as going to Afghanistan and interviewing the women, who are affected by the religious [...]

Dear Fatima, You must be going through a hard time. Even though you think what Iqbal says about not being able to be set free is true, everyone else in your workplace thinks otherwise, and is very jealous of him. You are truly nice to feel sympathy for Karim even though he seems to be [...]

I think Fatima is a very kind-hearted girl, considering the conditions in the rug factory. But, she is also a little bit naive because Karim doesn’t care about the children and is willing to do anything the master says. It is possible to feel sympathy even for people you don’t like because you can imagine [...]

I think, after 4 weeks of this unit “Sharing the Planet,” is posing to be a challenging unit. This unit is mainly about the rights of children. Recently, we have been studying different child heroes, like Iqbal Masih, Anne Frank , and Craig Kielberger . The one I am most fascinated by is Iqbal. (There will be a video [...]

Stuck on Mount Tambourine On my winter break, my family and I went to Brisbane for a vacation. We were accompanied by a a friend of mine, who was also with his family. We had rented a car, so we had planned to drive up Mount Tambourine first thing in the morning to visit a [...]

We should use compost as our main waste management system as it is sustainable, efficient, and is the most fitting system [...]
