Hello Aurora and Shooting Star families!
We have had another fun week at ISN!
For our Unit of Inquiry lessons this week, we are currently reviewing what we have learned in previous lessons.
今週のUOIのレッスンは今までのレッスンの復習をしました。
Once again, our first line of inquiry for this unit is “We share the world with animals”.
１つ目のline of inquiry(キーコンセプト)は“We Share the World with Animals”です。
We reflected on information we learned during the unit, as well as any information students may not have understood.
今までこのユニットで学んできた情報を共有したり、少し理解するのが難しい事をリフレクションしました。
To start with, students were given an assignment to place an array of animals into their correct habitats.
始めに、個別にテストをしました。キリン、ペンギン、サメ等それぞれ生息地が違う動物の切り取りを正しい生息地へ戻せるかというものです。
Our teacher then asked why some specific animals might live in their habitat – students answered regarding colour, body size etc.
テスト中、先生が動物についてどうしてその生息地にこの動物が生息しているのか、そしてどうして生息することが出来ないのか質問をしました。キリンはどうしてサバンナに生息しているのか質問した際、”Giraffe can’t swim in the water because their legs are too stiff”と答えてくれたお友達もいましたね！
Next, we reviewed our 2nd and 3rd lines of inquiry, “Animals help us” and “We help animals”.
次に２つ目と３つ目の line of inquiry(キーコンセプト) “Animals help us” の復習をしました。
In doing so, we reviewed how to care for a pet.
ペットをどうやってお世話をするかの復習をしました。
First, we answered our teacher’s questions regarding positive and negative things one can do with a pet.
まず、先生がペットにして良い事と悪い事の質問をしました。
After that, our table groups demonstrated different ways to care for a pet – for example walking, bathing and feeding their pets.
その後、テーブル毎に分かれて散歩、シャワーの仕方、餌やり等を色んな方法でデモンストレーションをしました。
Everyone showed great “Caring” skills (one of our learner profiles we have been working on) when caring for pets!
皆さん“Caring”のスキルが身について来ましたね。IBの学習者像である“Caring”(思いやりのある人)になれました☆彡
Great job everyone!

Also this week we had some nice weather, and got to play in our outside pool!
Some students wore their bathing suits, while some others decided to stay in their clothes.
Everyone enjoyed cooling off by either swimming or wetting their feet.
We have been working very hard at our bi-weekly swimming lessons, and everyone was keen to show their teachers how well they can swim now!
The younger students are becoming more comfortable in the water, and even enjoy splashing their teacher!
Keep up the great work everyone!

Thank you everyone, and see you again next time!
