Parent Notice

Dear parents and learners, 

I would like to wish you all a wonderful holiday and a happy and healthy new year. We have had an excellent start to our MY programme in Term 1 and we look forward to continuing to build this programme at UDIS. Our school will resume classes on January 5th, 2021. We are looking forward to having your children back for Term 2. 

Language & Literature 

This week in Language and Literature class the learners worked on a communication activity where they had to create an impromptu story about a mythical creature attacking their ship. The children also took part in a mock online learning session where they had to compare and contrast two different stories based on myths. 

Individuals & Society

For this week the children have been exploring who Tutankhamun was. The children have also been brainstorming what things from the 21st century they could include in a time capsule to help people in the future understand what life was like during this time period.

Homework 

Each MYP classroom teacher will be assigning their homework via Google Classroom. The children should be reading for at least 20 minutes per day. The learners should continue to complete any incomplete classwork for homework and submit it via Google Classroom in order to receive teacher feedback. EAL learners will have their own reading to do from Ms. Liza.
