Coding with Bee-Bot
The Yr 5.2 students of Ms Melanie, together with their LSA, Ms Josette, were learning about occupations. During the lesson students were divided in 2 groups and had to programme Bee-Bot to reach the correct destination after being presented with a situation. The students had to first write the code that was to be instructed for Bee-Bot to reach his goal. Then, after inputting the code, they had to make sure that the destination, based on their calculations, was reached.

Adding 10 to a 1 or 2 digit number
The yr 3.1 students of Ms Sharon working out sums on their mini whiteboards. During this lesson students talked about adding 10 to a 1 digit and 2 digit number. The teacher made use of an interactive grid on the Interactive Whiteboard and chose a number at random. The children wrote the number down on the mini whiteboard and then added 10.
Working on Syllables…
The Yr 3.1 student of Ms Sharon learning about syllables during Maltese Language lesson. The children were divided in groups. Each group was given a different set of 10 picture cards and 10 words. Their task was to read the words and then, match them to the correct picture. After circulating each group to assess their work, the children’s attention was focused on the coloured parts on each of the word cards. Syllables were discussed followed by further practice.
