One of the great things about being in an international school is that the preschoolers get to learn from the big buddies. It's wonderful to see the older students reading and inspiring the younger ones. Such a positive and enriching experience for all! #10Years1Journey
The @HISReadingTeam had our graduation today with these amazing students we had the pleasure of journeying along with in their reading. Thank you parents, for joining us on zoom to celebrate them. And...as an added bonus, they got ICE-CREAM! #his_learning@HELPISKL
@HISReadingTeam is welcoming back our students with @PlayOsmo. Why? Coding helps with sequencing and problem solving. PizzaCo shows them the importance of reading instructions. Words reinforce sound recognition and spelling patterns. All packaged in F.U.N. @HELPISKL#his_learning
@HISReadingTeam use chunking to help reinforce language in our readers and to improve reading fluency. It helps make learning more manageable, and helps with how we learn new information and vocabulary as well as reinforces prior knowledge contextually. #HISlearning@HELPISKL
Here are our red-hot Lili hairs! Just like Lili, let's be kind to ourselves, others and the things around us. How can you be kind?
#HISvalues#his_learning@HELPISKL@wendee_tan
@HISReadingTeam is focusing on kindness, with a lovely story from Malaysian author & illustrator @wendee_tan . The students responded by creating their own Lili hair, simply by using crepe paper and water- with the message 'Kindness always leaves a trace' #hislearning@HELPISKL
The Masteries aren't just for our students, but ourselves as well. Thanks to @CarrieLingYii for upskilling us to incorporate coding and @makeymakey to suit our students needs. Here we've coded letter sounds to simple buttons to explore teaching possibilities - which are endless!
Watch a sped-up video of our student reading and sequencing the steps to make slime independently. This is @HISReadingTeam goal: giving them the tools for success, and injecting fun while doing it #HIS_learning@HELPISKL
Getting our hands stuck into it! After working out clues through reading keywords and instructional phrases, we figured it out -our teachers surprised us with making slime! #HIS_learning#handson@HELPISKL
What are we making? @HISReadingTeam make reading FUN with a capital F! After practising some of our reading strategies, we are making ...puffy paint! #HIS_learning@HELPISKL
