Create Different Types of Clouds

Grade 2 students are learning about the 4 different types of clouds: cirrus, cumulus, cumulonimbus, & stratus. To help the students learn what the clouds look like, we used the cotton balls to represent each type of cloud.

CUMULUS clouds: These clouds look like big fluffy cotton balls.
CIRRUS clouds: Pull the cotton balls apart into long, wispy parts.
CUMULONIMBUS clouds: These clouds are also fluffy, but because they are storm clouds, they colored them black with markers.
STRATUS clouds: Students should stretch out the cotton balls, but not completely apart, and then color them gray.

At the end, the students labeled each cloud with its name!
This is a really fun, educational activity that helps the students learn what the clouds look like in the sky.

Deep Zoom

Grade 2 students got the chance to explore the pictures of their body parts in fine detail using the Deep Zoom feature of Microsoft Silverlight. It helped them to use the PC like a powerful magnifying glass, zooming into high resolution images to explore them in minute detail. It is a fun and engaging way to present a lesson and involve students in class presentations and activities.

Celebrating "World Health Day" at KSPS

The World Health Day is celebrated each year on 7th April globally. KSPS young students launched a campaign to celebrate this important event. The aim of this campaign was to raise awareness among KSPS clovers of different threats to their health. Different activities were performed in all KSPS classes. Musical students created a song entitled “You don’t have to eat gummy”. Visual students created a Power Point presentation entitled “Healthy Kids”. They presented it in front of all KSPS students. Kinesthetic students drew “Book Marks” that contains healthy tips and distributed them to all the school’s students and staff. Finally, all students had the chance to eat delicious healthy snack of fruits (strawberries, pears, apples, and bananas).

الملصق الاعلاني

تلامذة الصف الرابع صمموا ملصقاتهم الاعلانية التي عبرت عن تمحبتهم  لمدرستهم وميّزها حسب آرائهم .

حنّية جدّة

جدّتي إذا ضاقت بي الدّروب والكلّ تنحى عني لن أجد سوى دفئك ونبض إيمانك لا يفارق ذكر الله لسانك ولا يفرق الحب حنانك جدّتي كل ما سوف أقوله لن يعبّر عن حبي لك ولن تصل كلمات الشكر لحقّك كل ما أستطيع قوله اللهم يا مجيب الدعاء ويا خالق السماء والنجوم اجعل جدتي بعافية وصحّة تدوم تكريماَ لحنان الجدّة ، دعى أطفال الحضانة في مدرسة عثمان ذي النورين جداتهم لقضاء وقت ممتع معهم.غنّت الجدات بصوت عذب للأطفال كما سردن القصص الجميلة لهم. حضّرت بعض الجدات الحلويات القديمة التي كانت تعدها للعائلة . اختتمت الزيارة بتوزيع الهدايا على الجدات لتبقي ذكرى جميلة من حفيد عزيز على قلوبهن

Do You See What I See?

Community, Connectedness, Creativity ...!

    Grade 6 Clovers lately got the chance to work with Eltham Primary School in Australia. Trough poetry, Visual Art, and other texts, tools, and resources, students investigated the meaning of community and what connects them to their community. They explored their relationship to their surrounding and environment.
They took 10 photos in 10 days of images that represented this relationship and their own values.

My students and I came up with the idea of decorating our bulletin board in class with the following "10 day photos" ;)

Afterwards they sent these photos to the partner school in Australia through Wikispace and iEarn.
   At the end of this project my students learned that sharing and communicating with students from other cultures enriches their knowledge of other countries' traditions, norms, and values.

"A picture is worth a thousand words!"














At the end of this project KSPS students shared and sent their photos to their partner school and they in return saw the partner school's photos and projects.

“A picture is worth a thousand words!”
