Our fab #SAISrocks HS Art Club has created an #art #installation for our Art Dept display board. We were inspired by our school’s focus on BELONGING. ❤️Here is the start of “This is me. This is us.” - will post when it grows 🙌

Getting ready to celebrate #deepavali with my students. Drawing a kolam in my art studio at #SAISROCKS to set the joyous festive mood. My Ss are already curious how I drew it. Made the Timelapse for them! An art that involves mind,body, brain & soul in unison #yoga #meditation

Inspired by the book “One Word”. My students chose one word to help them grow socially & emotionally this year & have a better school experience. They visualized and created it using our art process. #SAISROCKS #oneword One Word

How long are Bigfoot’s feet? Which unit of measure can we use? Later…can we compare all of our feet to Bigfoot’s? I wonder who will have the third longest feet or the shortest? #grade1 #measurement #SAISRocks #funwithmath

So excited!! Our first post Covid field trip!! Going to the Zoo to study animal features, behaviors, and habitats in connection to our UOI and nonfiction literacy units #SAISRocks #Grade1 #fieldstudies

In the days of digital texting & emailing, our Ss took a pause & explored the social-emotional connection in sending and receiving handwritten postcards compared to digital messaging. #saisrocks #cognitaway #GBWD2023 #handmade #studentwork - Global Be Well Day Cognita Schools

Using all of our in-house Stamford American experts to learn from one another. Stamford Leadership Series. Thrilled and humbled to have the opportunity to present to our leaders and aspiring leaders alongside these two magnificent educators meghana & Saleem Blevins #SAISRocks

Here's Coach Jaye with this month's GET-FIT theme: The Squat Challenge! While the move looks simple, it holds benefits such as increasing strength and mobility, as well as lower back and pelvic stability.

Tie & Dye techniques are one of the ancient methods use to add color to fabric. Inspired by the sari I am wearing, which adopted a Japanese shibori dyeing method, my g3 Ss attempted the tie & dye technique with some stunning results #deepavali celebrations at #saisrocks

Great conversations happening in G4. Bringing student thinking to the table and analysing - what strategy are they using? Are they using a model or documenting their thinking with equations? Are they changing their strategy based on the numbers they see? Fabulous! #saisrocks

“I chose to learn some words in Tamil today because I want to use them with my Tamil-speaking friend, “ said one of the Ss. Ss learned about the connection between Singapore & Tamil. Do you know Singam means Lion and oor means city.

We are all masterpieces in the HS SAIS Visual Art department! ❤️ What a fun costume & day! And thanks to the Stamford American PTA for a special afternoon 🎃🙌 #SAISrocks

How many? How do you know? Our teachers are researching some number concepts in G2. Seeing some skip counting, unitising, place value and counting on start to emerge. Great! Now what?… great conversations about student thinking in G2. #saisrocks #pypmath

How do we transform data into action? Lots of ideas to talk about at learning2. #DataLiteracy #SAISrocks Cora Yang Aisha Kristiansen

So…. How many? Counting collection time in G1. Lots of chances for us to research those early number concepts - cardinality, synchrony, hierarchical inclusion, before, after… lots of fabulous conversations! Time to teach in now! #saisrocks #pypmath

I ❤️ clay! How fabulous & dramatic are the stages of #clay or #ceramics ! Our Grade 9 artists were rightly proud of their original masks inspired by their chosen cultural mask research. They are all skilled in slab, score/slip/smear & underglazing now #SAISrocks #ibmyp

Wet lunch time here in Singapore. Some of our G1’s decided to set up a shop in their classroom - can you spot the prices written in English and mandarin? #saisrocks

I can’t recommend a student workshop with Ian Murphy highly enough! More than 100 of our fortunate #SAISrocks Gr10 & 11s got to spend a day with him earlier this month & we’re still talking about & using the lessons/processes/techniques we learned!!! Here’s this week’s fav:

A bit of discussion on how math & art are connected, geometry, symmetry, dose of chat and laughter and such amazing attempts by my g3 artists to create symmetrical kolam patterns made it a calm yet fun, engaging art session to end the day of #deepavali celebrations at #SAISrocks

Tuning in to a new math unit - what are some concepts we know a lot about already? What are some we need to spend a little more time on? An interesting ‘chalk talk’ with our G2 mathematicians today. Lots to dig into! #pypmath #saisrocks
