Winter vacation homework 2023

 Here is the vacation homework assignment for A2. (I am flexible about the length of the writing.  If students can give me a piece around 200-300 words, I will be happy):

Grade 5 Winter Homework January 2023  

Attention Xinmin scholars! 

1. Next semester the school will be taking submissions for the Xinmin Horizons magazine. Students must prepare a short piece of writing 300 - 500 words in length. You may choose any genre or topic you are interested in. Please handwrite the final draft on a piece of lined paper. Make sure your writing is neat and legible. 

Hand it in to homeroom teachers. The winning pieces of written work will appear in the magazine!

2. Some reading assignments, writing activities and videos will be set on Savvas Realize for students to complete during winter break.  

3. For our global fair, the students have to make a presentation about the UK. They can make a poster, draw a picture, make a labeled diagram, build a model, or write something. 

Wishing you a propitious, portentous, and prosperous Chinese New Year break!
