This week, grade 1, grade 2 and grade 3 explored how sounds are made. They had a lively discussion on this topic and came to some conclusions. To stimulate the students' curiosity and creativity, the teacher and the students did an experiment called a “string phone" to verify the students' conclusions and found that sound is produced by vibration.

Grade 1 students learned to use dictionaries and phonetic sequencing, which is a basic method of searching for Chinese characters based on their pinyin order. During the teaching process, students not only learned searching skills but also developed logical thinking and sequential thinking skills.

Grade 3 students learned about the historical background and unique architectural features of the Zhaozhou Bridge through the text ‘赵州桥’. By explaining the mechanics of bridge design, such as the concepts of tension and pressure, students were helped to gain a preliminary understanding of how the Zhaozhou Bridge could be stable for thousands of years.

Grade 6 students learned the ancient poem ‘Ode of Lime’. By praising the pure and brave image of Lime, the poet expressed his ambition to challenge difficulties and not be afraid of sacrifice. At the same time, the students discovered through exploration that quicklime is a white powder that is soluble in water but insoluble in ethanol. Moreover, quicklime can be used to help improve soil and can also be used to make materials needed for construction. Desiccant and bleaching powder can also be made from quicklime.

This week, Grade 6 studied the formula for the volume of a cone. In order to investigate the relationship between the volume of a cone and the volume of a cylinder, the pupils experimented with a cylinder and a cone of the same base and height. They used the cone to fill the cylinder with sand and found that they had to fill the cone with sand three times in order to fill the cylinder, and in doing so, they discovered that a cylinder with the same base and height is three times as large as the volume of a cone. Thus, it was found that the volume of a cone is equal to one-third of the volume of a cylinder.

This week G4-G6 students were introduced to Pickleball forehand skills in the P.E. lesson. During the lesson, students focused on how to control the ball's direction and track by the angle of the racquet and the striking path. Other than practising the form of forehand, students also discussed forehand skills with motion physics.
