Sharing of Portfolio Best Works

P5 Victorious and P5 Resilient pupils take turns to share their portfolio best works.

Vernetta shares her findings about Inuka, the polar bear in the Singapore Zoological Gardens, and the effects of global warming on polar bears.

I have encouraged my pupils to take on Community Involvement Projects (CIP) in their best works. Many pupils have found out that they must be above 17 years in order to volunteer. However, that does not mean they cannot help the community at their age. Lim Wei Khai rose to the challenge and helped Metta School to make cookies. Well done, Wei Khai!

In the portfolio best works, pupils also learn to make their own games and link social studies concepts such as 'interdependence' to the games.

June shows her draft of her own board game - A new $1000 note?

Caleb Chiam shows his new 'Snake & Ladder' game. Looks interesting, Caleb! I want to play...
