Today's work

These last few weeks we had some intensive work regarding adjectives. We have a word wall which is dominated by adjectives other than 'nice' and 'good'. As you can see from the work below, many children decided to use this resource in their work. Today I decided to do a lesson that allowed the children to choose their presentation according to their tastes. As you can see, quite a lot of them are excited about Christmas, aliens, fairy tales and superheroes. 

Well done. I wish some of you took more care to save their work properly...a lot of work gets lost through rushing from one task to another.

The George Cross

Today we had a handout about the Maltese Flag. I wanted to explain to the children how the George Cross came along, so I showed them some of this video. Would be nice if some great grand parents spoke to the children about the Great War.

Some mashcams

Today we had some people visiting our children so we didn't do any formal lessons.

We sure did learn a lot though!

We had the computers all day and we went on

educationcity.com and played some science, language and maths games.

We also went on purplemash, designed a few cars and buildings for a future project, and we wrote a few stories. Here are some of them.

As time goes by, children are learning to become more independent. There is always some sort of computer activity going on in our class.

Farmer Duck : Certificates, Comic Strips, Wanted Posters and Much more.

Boy, did they work hard today! They were all like little Farmer Ducks (see the story in the yesterday's post), some even putting 5 pieces of work.

After that, the children who were ready explored more bits form the fantastic 2Simple Software.

(we're painting now Miss, we wrote too much today!)

  
 The .swf Books.

Farmer Duck

Today we read this story. The children enjoyed it immensely...had a few giggles while reading it.

Tomorrow, we're going to do a few posters and comic strips on the Intel Classmates...so watch this space for some fantastic posters and comic strips. 

Like and Don't like

At the moment we are doing Unit 3 from Way Ahead.

Here's how it works.

If you like apples and bananas, you say

I like apples and bananas.

If you like apples, but don't like bananas you say

I like apples but I don't like bananas.

If you don't like any of them you say

I don't like apples or bananas.

Nomi.

Colours.

In year three, children are expected to spell all the colour words properly, in English and in Maltese.

Here is a good game that will help them to spell the colour words.

Happy pumpkins and spiders

Happy faces too!

Pupil Profiles

Today, we went on Purplemash.com and we wrote in our profiles.

It was good fun.

Thankyou for being good during the computer lesson.

Two lovely girls finished a bit early, so they had the time to  explore purplemash a bit more. Here is what they did.

Things you can do on Purplemash.com

Every day I'm going to show the class a different activity. Today I showed them the Maths games (since they are all convinced that Maths is just awesome). One can also explore, which is great :) 

Here's what Ranya did on 2animate light. This .gif picture can be inserted into a story. 

Explore, practise, save on your 'cloud' online. Discovering on your own is the best thing you'll ever do. 

More Halloween Stories

Today we had an impromptu purplemash.com lesson, for testing purposes, but that did not mean that we didn't use the short time we had with the netbooks to the full.

More scary stuff!

How to use Purplemash.com

Today, in your diaries, you have the logins written down. Tomorrow I'll give you a login card so you can keep it safe. 

So...just a reminder on how to login to purplemash.com 

Also, you can check the 'online docs' section and show the people at home what you have been doing in class!
