P4 Maths heuristics website

Dear all,

We are embarking on creating more resources available to help students learn the heuristics taught in P4. We will start with the next heuristic, which is Listing. Please view the video at the link below and we will discuss the heuristic in class on Monday, 2 April 2018. Pupils need to view the video before the lesson on Monday. Please view the video using a computer/ laptop as it may not be supported on a mobile device.

March holiday homework

Hi all,

Please complete the following March holiday homework:

Maths
- Koobits: Four operations http://problemsums.koobits.com/Homework/Access/594027
- Maths Review 1 (pg 35-38)
- Chapter 5 Angles Practice 1 (pg 81-84)

Science
- McOnline: Our digestive system and Life cycle of plants
- Knowledge Forum: Select promising ideas on KF using the lightbulb tool https://kf.rdc.nie.edu.sg

How to select promising ideas:
- It is an idea that needs more elaboration.
- It will help develop our scientific discussion further as it contains relevant scientific vocabulary.
You must justify why you chose those notes as promising ideas.

Assign colours:
Green - For ideas with scientific words relate to the topic
Orange - For ideas related to the topic but no scientific words and needs further elaboration

Choosing the right scaffolds:
- "I need to understand": Used in the first stage when you didn't understand much about the problem
- "My theory": You wrote steps that should be taken to stop mosquito breeding
- "New information": You put in things from articles that you have read.
- "A better theory / This theory does not explain": We are at this stage now. After identifying promising ideas, build on them to give a better theory, now that you have gained more information on the topic.
- "Putting our knowledge together": We will do this in Term 2 once everyone has put up their better theories and this will lead to our Rise above.

Thank you and have an enjoyable March holidays.
