L-Arloġġi. Nota importanti.

It-tfal għandhom l-arloġġi fuq il-pitazz tal-Matematika. Il-'half past' qed isibuh ftit tqil x'uħud minnhom. Ħalluhom jużaw arloġġ ta' vera (bil-makkinarju ġewwa) ħalli jitgħallmuh aħjar.
Meta l-ħin ikun (eż) it-tlieta w'nofs, il-kbira tkun fuq is-6 u ż-żgħira tkun bejn it-3 u l-4. Dan hu importanti ħafna li tifhmuh għax ma nkunux nistgħu  nimxu għall-'quarter to'.

When I was One handout on English Comprehension.

When I was One

This is a poem written by A.A. Milne, as part of the book 'Now we are Six'. A.A. Milne is the famous author of the 'Winnie the Pooh' books.

He was a dedicated author and father, and he wrote the stories to entertain his son, Christopher Robin.

Homework is on the language copybook (When I was One handout)

Illum bgħatt nota.

Jekk forsi kielha l-kelb, hawn hi.

Għal dal-Milied nixtieq li kull student iġib miegħu żewġ kartolini tal-Milied (bl-envelopp u bolla kull waħda). Dan għax nixtieqhom jiktbu ittra ċkejkna tal-Milied lin-nanniet (jew min m’għandux xi ħadd tal-familja). Tal-familja jieħdu ħafna gost biha u t-tfal jitgħallmu jiktbu l-indirizz fuq l-envelopp u x’jiġri fil-posta (għax immorru kollha f’daqqa ninpustawhom waħda waħda) Għalhekk ibgħatu :

1) 2 kartolini

2) 2 bolol għal Malta (jekk hemm xi indirizz barra minn Malta, tridu tibgħatu bolla apposta)

3) L-indirizzi miktubin ĊARI fuq karta separata.

Itfgħu kollox ġo borża tal-karti jew envelopp ikbar, agħlquh, u iktbu isem it-tifel/tifla fuq il-borża/envelopp.

Jekk ikollkom xi problemi, ibgħatu email claudine.slater@educ.gov.mt

Ser nibgħat ukoll id-dar mudell ta’ anġlu li jrid isir nofsu d-dar u nofsu l-iskola, għax dan jieħu l-ħin. It-tfal iridu jpinġu l-biċċiet tal-anġlu, intom jekk jogħġobkom, waħħlulhom il-bicciet fuq kartonċina u qasqsulhom il-bicciet intom bil-mod, hemm xi biċċiet minnu li jistgħu jaqtgħhom huma u hemm oħrajn li tridu tagħmluhom intom. Dan imbagħad ser ngħaqqduh fil-klassi. Jekk jogħġobkom ibgħatu l-biċċiet kollha sal-ġimgħa d-dieħla ġo envelopp magħluq halli ma jitħallat xejn.

Min għandu libsa ‘tal-Milied’... (anġlu, ragħaj, Madonna, eċċ) jibgħat jgħidli għax fil-Milied ser immorru quddiesa Santa Liena  u ħa nagħmlu daqsxejn reċta waqt il-Vanġelju.

Grazzi ħafna tas-sapport u l-ħidma tagħkom, Claudine Slater.

An english exercise (simple, easy...) from the green book, page 15.

A Maltese verbs exercise.

Which leaves you plenty of time for studying :)

Extra Work.

I have a lot of work cards in my class that the pupils can do as extra work. If your child wants to do these work cards (most of them do) please give them an extra copybook, and cover it in any colour you want (as long as it's not a colour we are already using).

More workcards done, more points!

And...extra work is done for pleasure and satisfaction, not as a punishment :)

Today's Homework

Homework for the Weekend.

 English Comprehension : David's Holiday.

I got the children to underline all the answers from the passage...but they are not numbered, so they will have to use their heads a bit. I wanted to help them a little, since this is a 'harder' comprehension.

Maths Sums.

I only just started these, and I gave only a few sums, because they are quite hard. 

8 + 6 =

********         ******               

First find the friends of 10

8 + 2 + 4

Then add whatever is left to make 6

******** **  ****  

8 and 2 make 10

10 and 4 = 14

( I will post a youtube of the process after school....don't panic!)

A big thankyou!

A big thankyou to all the mummies and daddies who came along for parents evening today. I am very happy teaching your children and I have full faith in your work and support. We had 100% parent attendance, and all parents are just great! What more can a teacher say but....

Today's work.

Sorry I didn't have much time to blog from the classroom, as we had a super busy day.

Children have homework from the Green book, page 11 (they have to get the answers from pages 22 and 23 of the Way Ahead Pupil's Book)

For Maths, they have PCM, odd and even page...instructions on the book itself.

Malti : Is-Saħħara l-Kerha minn fuq Malti Manija.

Reliġjon - It-Tieġ ta' Kana.

Illum tgħallimna fuq it-tieġ ta' Kana. L-ewwel miraklu.

Hawn biċċa film vera sabiħa, mill-Vanġelu ta' Ġwanni.

  

Iċ-Ċawla u l-Volpi.

Illum rajna dan il-filmat ċkejken. Tfejna l-volum u qrajna l-istorja li qegħda fuq Denfil pagna 23.

Ma nistax nuri l-vidjo fuq il-Blog, għalhekk morru fuq HAWN.

Għandhom il-mistoqsijiet fuq il-pitazz. L-aħħar mistoqsija jridu jiktbu x'inhuma jaħsbu ċ-ċawla u l-volpi wara l-istorja.

Issa bdejna sistema ġdida. L-ewwel niktbu l-mistoqsijiet kollha u nwieġbu wara. MA rridx nara żbalji tal-ortografija (spelling) speċjalment meta l-kelma hi miktuba diġa' fil-mistoqsija.

L-ewwel kelma ta' kull sentenza tibda b'ittra kapitali.

Agħmlu t-tiswija.

This weekend's homework

'Stedina' - Ħendawt tal-Malti, it-tieni eżerċizzju. (Fuq it-taħriġ)

Maths - Revision handout. The number names can be found on the English study copybook.

English handout - Opposites crossword.

Malti Studju : Tinsewx li tridu tistudjaw il-kliem tal- i u ie.

Solid Shapes.

Here is a good explaination for solid shapes. Solid shapes are not just a Maths thing, they are everywhere around us. Would be good if children learn now to find them in their every day life.

Homework

Is on Maths 1.

Children have to write the shape of the object described.

For example

What shape is a clown's hat? 

Answer : A cone.

They Also have a handout called 'Hiding'. They have to work out Ex 1 and 2 on the English Comp copybook.

For exercise 1, they have to fill in with a word from the passage. For exercise 2 they have to copy only the 'true' (good) sentences.

Some children have the book called 'Jolly Hungry Jack' or 'The Enormous Turnip' for reading in their bags. They are to bring the book with them tomorrow.

Malti

Tajthom ħendawt jisimha 'Stedina'. Iridu jaħdmu eż 1 biss, fuq il-pitazz tat-taħriġ.

Oxford Reading Tree Online

I'm sure most of the children came home all excited about the interactive software we are using at school.

Click HERE

On the left hand side, there are two boxes for the 'username' and 'password'. Most of the children know how to input these by heart now. I won't publish the username and password (for which the school has paid for) on this blog, for obvious reasons, but you can find them on your children's email address.

Please start from 'reception'. Do not use Year 1 and Year 2 yet.

Thanks and Enjoy!

Solid Shapes - Also known as 3-d shapes.

The Shapes.

At the moment we are studying the following shapes :

cube, cuboid, pyramid, sphere, cylinder, cone, triangular prism.

here is a handout with some flashcards so maybe the children can remember the names better.  **CLICK**

L-Aġġettivi.

Dawn huma importanti ħafna għax it-tfal
jidraw isebbħu l-kitba krejattiva tagħhom.

Għad dar iridu jaħdmu Malti Manija (g u o) paġni 12 u 13. It-tfal fil-klassi ħeġġiġthom li jużaw daqxejn l-immaġinazzjoni, u ma jiktbux 'kbir, zgħir, sabiħ' biss għal kull kelma li jkollhom.

For the weekend

Today we did a lot of work on Global Warming, for our school comenius project. Here is one of the things that we did.

All our work related on 'green issues' will be put here, together with the other year threes' work.

Today's Homework.

Children have study list 4 in their English Study copybook. Please study this a little bit every day, that's how you get the best results.


On the Maths squares copybook, they have to draw lines according to the measurments given. This time the lines are vertical.

Children have to get a 1 metre length (not more, not less) of string or ribbon, to use for a measuring exercise.

Way Ahead Workbook, pages 16, 17, 18.

On their Maltese composition they have a few sentences, which they have to copy correctly on a neat piece of paper.

I have a copy of 'L-Aħħar Bidwi f'Wied il-Għasel' on my drive, sung by the children. They will do a performance in front of teachers who are visiting our school for the Comenius project. If you want a copy of this recording, please send the pen-drive to school, so your child can practise over the weekend. Many thanks.

Measuring.

Here is what we are doing at the moment. It's very important that children learn how to use measuring tools properly.

Religion

Illum tkellimna fuq il-Qaddisin kollha (1 ta' Novembru) u l-mejtin tagħna (2 ta' Novembru. It-tfal iridu jsibu stampi tal-Qaddisin favoriti (eż Santa Liena) u fuq il-paġna l-oħra jridu jsibu xi ritratti ta' nies li jafu u li mietu jew jiktbu isimhom.

Malti Taħriġ.

Illum qrajna l-istorja tad-Denfil 'Li Kieku'. It-tfal iridu jwieġbu l-mistoqsijiet fuq din l-istorja. Illum bdejna sistema differenti, li t-tfal jiktbu l-mistoqsijiet l-ewwel, u t-tweġibiet wara. Għalhekk mintomx ser taraw linji vojta bejn mistoqsija u oħra.

Halloween Homework.

You might think they have a lot of homework for the mid-term holidays, but it's bits and pieces, mostly to give children a bit of revision..


1) Read Rapunzel.

2) Malti Flat file (revizjoni l-Artiklu)

3) English Flat file (a few easy fill in's about Rapunzel)

4) Malti Manija p. 8 (singular u plural....noti fuq il-Malti Studju)

5) My stories..Rapunzel (children have to find lines from the book and copy them next to the pics stuck on the project book)

6) English Comp copybook...a simple fill in exercise, use the book.

7) PCM page 10 (small exercise adding 30)

8) Qari Malti : Ir-Razzett tan-Nannu Turu.

9) Maths flat file (adding 11's)...use number chart on PCM if you want.

10) Tilqima nhar il-Hamis....tinsewx il-ktieb tat-tilqim.

Happy Halloween...spread your homework over the holidays, don't rush it.

Oh Rapunzel!!!

Today we watched this video in class :

You probably saw the book inside your child's bag, it is the book of the week. 

Over the mid-term holidays I'm giving some homework connected with this book. 

IF  you want to do anything extra, 

HERE is some reading material. You can also print the book and let the child construct it. 

Ġietni idea...

Minn għada ser nibda nistaqsi lit-tfal ituni suġġett fuq xiex nibbloggja...xi annimal, grupp favorit, pajjiz, tim tal-futbol, kartuns ... li jħobbu. Jien nagħmel naqra riċerka bl-għajnuna tagħhom u nitfa' artiklu fuq hawn.

Dan mhux għat-tfal biss, jekk tridu tkunu tafu xi ħaġa intom ... ibgħatu kumment jew email u jkollna artiklu fuq x' niddiskutu hawn. Ġietni idea wkoll fuq l-ewwel lezzjoni tat-tisjir li nagħmlu. Dan inħobb nagħmlu meta jkolli l-lezzjoni tat-tisjir jew dwar l-ikel tajjeb għas-saħħa. Jekk tixtiequ lit-tfal jitgħallmu xi tisjir ġdid (eż : ikel Malti, insalata tal-frott, smoothies u milkshakes eċċ)... għiduli.

Adding Elevens

This was the lesson I wanted to broadcast live, but here's a  recording of what we did. I apologise for the bad audio in the video.



Here is a handout which you can do as extra work :

Adding Elevens.

Xogħol għall-Erbgħa, 4 ta' Novembru.

Fuq il-Project book tal-iStudji Soċjali għandhom iwaħħlu l-ħendawt li nħadmet fil-klassi, iwaħħlu l-Bronja (għandhom ħendawt tagħha wkoll) u jsibu xi stampi/ ipinġu fuq Ħaġar Qim u l-Mitħna tax-Xarolla.

Biex tifhmu aħjar fejn morna, HAWN issibu xi nformazzjoni fuq iż-Żurrieq, u msemmija l-Mitħna ( u l-Katakombi li hemm biswitha).

U HAWN issib xi nformazzjoni fuq Ħaġar Qim.

Dan hu filmat fuq dan it-Tempju megalitiku.

Ikun tajjeb kieku ssibu ħin u tmorru mat-tfal, speċjalment jekk għandkom tfal li qegħdin fl-ewwel sena tas-sekondarja. Dawk li jkollhom sħubija fil-Heritage Malta jkollhom prezzijiet specjali.

A link for you to read.

Here is something that inspires me a lot. Will give you an idea of how (lucky) virtual classrooms are run in other parts of the world.

Read here

Il-Ħarġa t'Għada.

Għada sejrin naraw il-Mitħna tax-Xarolla u wara sejrin Ħaġar Qim. Nitloblkom tibgħatuhom bl-uniformi puliti u bil-basket il-Kbir kif ukoll wieħed żgħir bl-ikel ġo fih. Ħelu jistgħu jġibu pakkett wieħed biss. Tibgħatux cikkulati għax idubu u jagħmlu straġi.

Il-Lampa

Din hi l-lezzjoni tal-Malti.

It-tfal għandhom jaqraw l-istorja fuq id-Denfil paġni 14 u 15, u jwieġbu l-mistoqsijiet fuq il-pitazz tat-taħriġ.

Today's Maths Lesson.

I think this explains it all. Done with Smartboard software. :)

Homework exercise on Maths copybook 2.

For the Weekend.

It-tfal għandhom lista ta' kliem bil-Malti x'jistudjaw għad-dettat nhar it-Tnejn. Għandhom il-ġranet tal-ġimgħa u l-istaguni. Ħafna minnhom jafuhom diga'.

Għandhom ukoll ħendawt fil-flat file abjad.

Handwriting : This week we have the letters that go down like a monkey's tail.

Abacus Textbook : Page 3. Do not draw the pictures, just write the sums on Copybook 1.

Abacus workbook page 14. The children worked the sums at school, or most of them. Now they have to colour the shapes according to the answers.

Answer 10 : Green

Answer 5 : Brown

All the other answers : Blue

Ix-xogħol tal-lum.

Studji Soċjali : Nies li jgħinuna. Ikkopjaw dawk is-sentenzi irrigati biss fuq Id-Dinja Tiegħi. Waħħlu xi stampi li għandhom x'jaqsmu. Dan ix-xogħol hu għal nhar it-Tnejn ħalli ntikom ċans issibu l-istampi.

English Dictation : Children have word list 2 on the English Study copybook. English Dictations are on Thursdays.

Maltese Dictation will be on Mondays. List will be given tomorrow.

Il-Healthy Breakfast.

Illum kif tafu konna l-healthy breakfast. It-tfal kielu ċereali li fihom anqas zokkor, u ħadu jowgart ukoll.

Ixxukkjajt ruħi kif minn klassi ta' għoxrin, sebgha
biss jieħdu kolazjon kif suppost. Is-sebgha li jieħdu, fil-maġġoranza jieħdu ċereali taċ-ċikkulata.

Mhux ta' b'xejn li meta ddoqq il-qanpiena tal-brejk ikunu jridu jibilgħuh il-ħobż.

Hafna tfal li jkunu fuq stonku vojt ma jikkonċentrawx. Hemm bżonn li jiġu l-iskola b'xi ħaġa sustanzjuża ġo fihom. Ċereali, ħobż mixwi, frotta...ttuhomx kejkijiet u gallettini għax ħafna zokkor iraqqadhom.

Għada ser nagħmlu il-fruit break, nispera li nara aktar tfal bil-frott fil-basket. Jistgħu jġibu jowgart (mhux minn dawk tal-ismarties jew mimlijin zokkor). Min iġib frotta/ħaxix/jowgart ser jieħu stilla fuq iċ-ċart tal-frott.

Today is Wednesday.

So, as always, we don't give homework. I hope you go for a nice walk, a nice drive, spend time with your parents and loved ones. Maybe kick a ball or ride a bike. Fly a kite or walk your dog.

Tomorrow we have dictation. Most of you are prepared. Do spend a few minutes going over the List 1, which is on the English Study Copybook.

Also, tomorrow we are having A Healthy Breakfast, so please come to school smart in your uniform. Thankyou :)

Maths : Counting Back.

Today we had some activity in the classroom.

Each group was given a 'whiteboard', a marker, a dice, and a set of cards showing from 10-20.

Each member of the group had to turn over one card, write the number on the whiteboard.

Then they roll the dice, and they minus that number from the big one.

Then we take out fingers showing the amount shown on the dice, and we count back from the big number.

ex 16 - 9 = 7

( 15, 14, 13, 12, 11, 10, 9, 8, 7)

For homework they have some counting back sums.

Watch This!!

Here is the cartoon we watched in class. We have the work on the My Stories Project Book. For homework, you have to draw the picture of the monster, or something from the story on the My Stories project book. Don't worry if your drawing is not too good, mine are not that good either :)

I will post some of your drawings next week.

Not now, Bernard.

Today we are going to read this fantastic book in class.

I read the story for you, in case you want to listen to it again.

HW tal-Malti.

Wara li taraw il- Powerpoint li poġġejtilkom fil-post ta' qabel din, tistgħu taħdmu MaltiManija g u o paġna 7.

Ħafna mit-tfal ma kinux jafu x'inhu vulkan, x'inhi l-Etna, xi tkun Belt Kapitali, id-differenza bejn pajjiz u belt...nixtieqkom jekk għandkom Atlas id-dar uruhom ftit, u tkellmu magħhom.

Kelma b'Oħra.

Illum fuq id-Denfil qrajna l-istorja li hemm fuq paġna 13. Fuq il-pitazz issa mxejna 'l quddiem. Fejn qabel kienu jimlew il-vojt, issa jridu jibdew iwieġbu. Għal bidu ser nibdielhom it-tweġiba jien, imma 'l quddiem ser ikollhom ifittxuha huma.

Rajna dan il-vidjo waqt li qrajna l-istorja.

Mistoqsijiet kienu dawn :

1) X'jisimha l-istorja? 2) X'kien qed jagħmel it-tifel?

3) X'beda jgħajjat?

4) X'għamlu l-irġiel? 5) X'għamel kif waslu ħdejh?

6) Fl-aħħar min ġie?

7) Min tah widen? 8) X'għamillu l-lupu?
