In English, we will be writing a biography based on the main character in our class book ‘Street Child’. 

In Maths, we will be learning about fractions, learning how to compare, add and subtract fractions with the same and different denominators. We will be exploring fractions beyond a whole, and using them in different real-life contexts.. 

In our Science learning we will be learning about components in simple electrical circuits and how to build a successful circuit.

In History, we will be learning about the Victorians, focusing on how education has changed and developed. We will be looking at different sources used by children during the Victorian Era, and will understand the differences between Victorian schools and modern day schools. 

In Art, we will be using sewing and textile skills to produce cushion covers inspired by the Victorian artist William Morris.

Our topic for indoor PE will be handball and our outdoor PE topic will be football. We will learn the rules and various attacking and defending strategies of each sport and develop our ball control.

Gymnasium Primakov - Primakov School

Description of Gymnasium Primakov - Primakov School

• Founded: 2017
• Location: Razdory village, Odintsovo district, Moscow region, Russia
• Total number of people: more than 1200 (390 preschool and 825 school level)
• Age of students: 4-16 years
• Type of education: joint (mixed)
• Type of accommodation: full board
• Language of instruction: Russian, English.

Primakova Primary School was opened in Moscow in September 2017 and became the first Russian school in which the full educational cycle (with pre-school preparation) is conducted in two languages: Russian and English. Administration and teachers (including many native speakers - they come from the USA, Great Britain, South Africa, Australia, Canada, as well as the best graduates of the MGIMO, MGU and other top universities) try to combine the traditions of the Russian school and the international educational standards adopted in the world.

In the elementary and middle classes the program is general, pre-profiled, but at the higher stage students can choose their own direction:

• humanitarian
• social and humanitarian
• natural science.

The slogan of the school is the bold phrase "Leadership is reality", and teachers are doing everything to let the graduates of the Primakov gymnasium repeatedly prove the truth of this credo.

Now the school enrolls about 1200 students (22 classes in total, on average 2-3 classes on parallels), but this amount is increasing, new classes and groups are opening, educational programs are expanding.

In addition to English, which students learn from the pre-school stage, courses of other modern languages are additionally organized, which can be visited at will - this will be a significant bonus when entering a university, in a further career in Russia or abroad. From 2019-2020, the school plans to introduce the International Baccalaureate course for high school students aged 16-18 (IB) - this will further facilitate the entry process if the graduate has decided to receive higher education abroad. High school students almost completely switch to bilingual education: subjects of the school program for 10 hours a week are studied with native speakers + 5-6 hours in English with Russian teachers. In addition, they organize meetings and lectures with university teachers, visit campuses of Moscow universities, and special classes in vocational guidance.

A minimum of 5 hours a week is spent on studying English, at least 10 hours a week - for additional lessons with native speakers. Little by little, young students begin to acquaint themselves with the basics of project and teamwork necessary for successful study in high school and university.

Key Facts & Information

Description.

• The city area is about 30 km in diameter and the population reaches to almost 10 million people.
• Moscow was first mentioned in the chronicles of 1147, where it played an important role in Russian history.
• The people of Moscow are known as Muscovites.
• Moscow is famous for its architecture, especially its historical buildings such as Saint Basil’s Cathedral .
• Moscow is a city with the most money in Russia and the third biggest budget in the world.
• Moscow began as a medieval city and developed into what was known as the Grand Duchy of Moscow, an administrative region ruled by a prince.
• Moscow is where all Russia’s tensions and inequalities meet to coexist, producing a unique feeling of a city that looks European but feels somewhat Asian in its mood and intensity.
• In 1147 Moscow was called Moskov, which sounds closer to its current name. Moscow was derived from the Moskva river, on which the city is located. The Finno-Ugric tribes, who originally inhabited the territory, named the river Mustajoki, in English: Black River, which was presumably how the name of the city originated.
• Several theories were proposed on the origin of the name of the river however linguists cannot come to any agreement and those theories haven’t been proven yet.
• The first known reference to Moscow dates from 1147 as a meeting place of Yuri Dolgoruky and Sviatoslav Olgovich. Muscovites today consider Prince Yury Dolgoruky their city’s founding father, but it was only recorded that he dined with friends in the town.
• In 1156, led by Knjaz Yury Dolgoruky, the town was barricaded with a timber fence and a moat. In the course of the Mongol invasion of Rus, the Mongols under Batu Khan burned the city to the ground and killed its inhabitants.
• Nevertheless, Moscow was restored and became more important. Yet the Mongols came back in 1382 and burned Moscow City again.
• Still, Moscow shortly recovered and In the 15th century, it probably gained a population of about 50,000. But, unfortunately, in 1571 the Crimean Tatars burned Moscow again.

Homework in Russian Education Facilities: Key Facts and Types

1 Comment · Posted by Alex Smirnov in Education

What is homework in the first place? In a nutshell, it is one of the forms of educational activities performed by students outside the classroom or in extracurricular time. This form of activity can pursue a number of goals:

• To help students assimilate and retain the material presented in the class better;
• To let students self-study certain topics or concepts that don’t require clarification from the teacher;
• To assess how well students have grasped the material. Also, to understand how well they can apply the obtained knowledge and skills for finding solutions to certain problems;
• To identify gaps in knowledge.

For decades, homework of all shapes and kinds has been an integral part of the educational process. This type of activity is used by pretty much all education facilities, regardless of the level, and all across the world. However, the essence and types of homework can vary from country to country.

Namely, due to a significant difference in the overall education system in Russia, the types of homework assigned to students in this country can be somewhat different. For example, it will be different from homework types assigned, say, in the US. As we know, here, the largest academic challenge facing students is writing, which can be delegated to make my essay service professionals. But, the situation in Russian education facilities is different.

In this article, we are going to take a closer look at the homework in Russia and discover what types of this extracurricular activity are there.

Basic Requirements for the Content and Volume of Homework

In Russia, both the volume and content of homework are regulated by law. The Ministry of Justice of the Russian Federation sets very specific sanitary and epidemiological norms for the conditions and organization of training in educational institutions and closely monitors their compliance.

According to these regulations, the organization of home schoolwork has to be an integral part of the general problem of improving the educational process at school. The content, nature, and functions of homework cannot be considered in isolation from the content, nature, and methods of teaching applied in the classroom. It is during the lessons that teachers must create the right conditions for the successful completion of homework.

Many components and stages of the lesson are directly related to the subsequent completion of homework: checking homework, assigning homework lessons, students’ independent work in the lesson, etc. The combination of these components should be such that in the lesson, the student would get fully prepared for the homework and so that the lesson and subsequent independent work are a uniform process.

Currently, there are the following basic requirements for homework in Russia:

• The overall volume of the homework should not exceed 30% of the total amount of work performed in the classroom.
• The total time spent by students on homework should not exceed: 1.5 hours for 2 through 3 grade; 2 hours for 4 through 5 grade; 2.5 hours for 6 through 8 grade; and 3.5 for 9 through 11 grade.

According to stats, Russia is among the countries where students spend the most time on homework – on average, they are dealing with 9.7 hours of homework per week.

Types and Forms of Homework in Russia

Schools and higher education facilities in Russia use different types of homework assignments to ensure the integrity and efficiency of the learning process. Namely, we can distinguish the following types of assignments:

• Individual;
• Differentiated;
• One for the whole class;
• Compiling homework for a deskmate.

Now, let’s look at each type in detail.

As you can easily guess, individual homework is usually assigned to individual students and is tailored to their specific needs, the current level of knowledge, existing gaps, and other individual factors. This form of homework makes it easy for the teacher to check the level of knowledge of a particular student. Such work can be done on cards or using printed workbooks.

Group homework is also a pretty common activity. It implies that the class is being divided into smaller groups of students, and each of the groups is assigned to work on a specific task that is part of the overall classroom assignment.

Differentiated homework is shaped based on the concept of differentiated instruction, which implies distinguishing students’ differences and using them to boost the effectiveness of learning. For example, this type of homework can be characterized by the following features:

• The assignment is the same for everyone, but the method of its completion varies depending on each student’s differences.
• There can be several options in the assignment, giving students the right to choose any of them independently.

Compiling homework for a deskmate is the most innovative approach to assigning homework. It implies that students will formulate the homework tasks for their peers themselves, based on the tasks that have been performed in the classroom.

Creative assignments include academic writing, personal projects, research, etc. They are typically assigned less frequently, and teachers give students more time to complete them. For example, a typical homework can have a deadline in just a day, whereas students should be given at least a week to complete a creative assignment.

Finally, the last and the most common type of homework in Russia is one assignment for the whole class. This can include different types of activities, including reading, writing, problem-solving, testing, etc. Typically, this is the form of the task students in Russia are dealing with daily.

Achievement Assemblies Today

 Here are some photos of children who were recognised for making some great choices in school this week.

Computing with Year 1 Lime Class

Year 1 Lime Class enjoyed their Computing lesson this week as they explored what a search engine is using the iPads. 

As a class we discussed what a search engine is and most of the children were able to tell me that Google was a search engine and could identify the Google Chrome icon at the bottom of the page. 

Before we started exploring, we discussed the importance of staying safe on the internet, therefore we used Kiddle, which is a search engine and online encyclopedia emphasising safety for young children. The class were shown how to type Kiddle into the search bar and how to load it. 

In Geography, we have been learning about homes, so as a class we typed homes into the search engine and clicked on the image tab at the top. We loved seeing the different types of homes all around the world. 

When it was the children's time to explore, they really enjoyed looking at topics that are of interest to them. These included space, wild animals, dinosaurs, the jungle and transport. Lime Tree were very sensible when exploring the iPads and were able to use the search engine independently. 

Keith Haring Stamping - Year 5

Year 5 have been practising their skills in stamp making, using Keith Haring's art as inspiration.

Keith Haring was an American artist in the 1980s who was influenced by cartoons and pop art.  Throughout his career, Haring devoted much of his time to public works, which often carried social messages.  Sadly, he died aged just 31. However, his messages of love, acceptance and humour are enjoyed by many people today.

We made our stamps using polystyrene and card, and found that bright coloured ready mixed paint gave the best effect.
