Year 4 Term 4 - Week 7 & 8

We visited A Century of Tutankhamun special exhibition at the Chau Chak Wing Museum, Sydney Uni on Sat 19th November 2022 with Juniper. The girls explored different artifacts on display, see LEGO of King Tut coffin created by Brickman and had a go at trying to write their name in Egyptian hieroglyphs. It was a fun experience and great extension of our African continent study this term.

Every Monday while I am at work, Mali is getting better at doing independent work with reading comprehension and a few lessons from the English workbook.

We have read 16 chapters of this term novel study and she continue to record chapter summary in google doc.

Spelling is a bit of a challenge area for Mali so we try to incorporate them into a fun spelling games which she enjoyed more.

As for Math, Mali is becoming very proficient with 11 & 12 Timestable. She also learnt about Fraction to Decimals conversion, Equivalent fractions. We also did a revision on working perimeter & area of square & regtangular shapes.

Mali is continuing to practise her drawing using ProCreate as well as on her sketch book. Some sample of her drawings. Here is a link to a record of her drawing timelapse it's 1:19 min so enjoy!

We also watch BTN classroom ep 34 & 35 and discuss what's happening around the world.

Year 4 Term 3 - Week 7 & 8

Week 7 & 8 Mali has read 2 novels this term so far so as a treat, we chose an ebook from the library that I can read to her. She really enjoyed being read to and simply follow the words and find out new vocabulary and discuss storyline together. We decided on Stunt Kids by Trent Roberts. We have read 5 chapters so far this week. Mali continues to do her reading comprehension workbook independently. Science & History - we have decided to incorporate more independent learning when I am away. Mali will complete her assigned tasks via email and send an email to me when she had completed her tasks. It's a great way for her to spend some independent time while staying with her Nanna. Math - Art - some sample of Mali's digital drawing.
