Troubleshooting

Dear Parents,

Please access the blog via https://mlsgr1b.blogspot.com/. Kindly do not try to access the blog for class 1A as Ms. Alison cannot resolve the issues for class 1B.

Link to documents

We have now sent you a link to a folder on the drive to make it easier for you to access and download documents. Kindly ensure you have Adobe Reader on your computer or iPad. 

Download and print with Adobe Reader

Please print off the documents, as the students will then write on them in pencil and erase as they try to solve the problem with different strategies. The strategy they employ is very important, as it is this thinking process that leads to learning. Should your child just write an answer please ask them how they arrived at this answer.

www.abcya.com

The links we have put in for ABCYA can be accessed by computers, but if you are using an iPad you need to download the app and create an account. Make sure you choose grade 1 then numbers and then find the game.

Recording on Raz-Kids

If you are unable to record on Raz-Kids, please be sure to allow microphone in your settings.

Comments box on the blog

You just type your response; the system will automatically identify you. Please be aware that all comments and replies are public.

We would like to thank you for your patience as we try to find the best and easiest way for all the children to be able to learn. We are learning a lot about computers and cannot always resolve the issues immediately. If you have unusual technical issues, you can also contact tech@mls.com.sa

Warmest regards,

Diana Laham

Counseling, a message from Ms. Suad

What an exciting week we had in 1B! Realistic fiction, butterflies and concert practice to name a few.

Our writing muscles are growing bigger and bigger. We took our pretend characters on adventures and gave them problems to solve. Finally, there was a happy ending after all.

                  Sharing our stories was a proud moment...

In math; we measured using a long, used shapes to show fractions and solved "What's my rule" problems...


   

  

STEM was about the water cycle and the life cycle of a butterfly.

We observed a real caterpillar in class going through the stages.

What a treat to see it break the pupa open and fly away.

More fun in Mandarin.... and by the way our song is coming along nicely!

Social Studies and Peace, how can we sow the seeds to grow peace around the world? What will it take?
