Mad About Minibeasts: 9781408341889: Amazon.com: Books


Good morning everyone!! Welcome back to our second half of our Term 3 virtual learning. We hope everyone had a nice break. Indeed, we are now left with 5 weeks before the end of the academic year for 2019/2020! 

Our topic for this term is Creepy Crawlies and we are going to learn all about minibeasts. So, today our focus will be on a book called Superworm (which we had read in class) but we will be looking at summarizing and writing your favourite part of the story. Then, for our topic today, we will watch a video about bugs and try to think of the different ways bugs move such as walk, fly and crawl. Can you come up with more? 

Let's start our first day of learning by going to Mrs Chiam’s Zoom for morning registration and 2nd session at 11:00 am with your group teacher.
