Mr How and His 5 Wives..

Hello, hello!!

We had our 2nd IEP Session last night!! Great turn out from the Abang and Kakak :) Abang Bet brought his friend along, Kak Alia.. Kak Farra came and so did Kak Da. Abang Fazli was also there. Kak Syu and Kak Sheila came later (they come to Ilham every Tuesdays too and supervise during Prep time)... Abang Acat started off with a recap of the ground rules outlined 2 weeks ago...

Then Kak Naz continued with introducing Mr How and his 5 wives (Ms Who, Ms What, Ms Where, Ms When and Ms Why) to the kids. Basically, the idea we had was to help the kids in preparing for essay writings - doing a skeletal using the 1H and 5W questions but I think at the end it turned out to be more of a comprehension exercise than planning an essay.. hehehe....

The kids were split into 3 groups and each group were given a news article (source: CBBC Newsround and they each had to choose 1 question (either Mr How or any of his wives) to ask about the article, getting the answers from the article itself.

When time was up, each group had to read their story and present their questions/answers to the rest... Abang Acat used a lot of Mr How and his 5Wives to ask the kids further and test whether they understood the article.
