English lesson on Tuesday 17 July

Dear all,



I've constructed a simple mind map with our boys on the relevant phrases and keywords that can be featured in a story entitled "Fall in a river". Basically, our boys have to identify the phrases and keywords that they can use in the writing practice 8 i.e. A mischievous boy falling into a lake, having climbed up a tree in a game of hide-and-seek with his friends. I've instructed our boys to create an account on mind42.com and use the freeware found on this website to create the mind map.The beauty of this browser based mind mapping tool is that mind maps created in the account can be stored in the server and retrieved in any computer connected to the internet.

However, for boys who have difficulty accessing the internet at home, they can choose to create their mind map by constructing it in their writing resource jotter book.

Homework:

1) Please bring your A3 Jotter book containing the mind map, either the printed mind map constructed online or the mind map constructed in the writing resource book.

2)Please bring along a thumb drive and earphones for your Garageband Music lesson tomorrow.

3)Get parents to sign the spelling Amodes Test 1. Bring your spelling Amodes Test 1 to class tomorrow.

4) Companion booklets 7,8,9 and 10.
