Science and Art MYP

This year the Grade 6 students have worked hard to create a Norwegian Endangered Species Calendar as a part of their Science and Visual Arts classes. Their aim is to create awareness for these threatened species and to raise money for Naturvernforbundet who work to protect these animals.

The Calendars contain original artwork by our students and information pertaining to each of the species via a QR code.

The students sold the calendars for 200kr with proceeds going towards Naturvernforbundet.

AIS is marking the  International Day for People with disabilities by raising awareness within the PYP, looking at what we mean by disability. MYP students had an assembly on Monday to discuss how people with disabilities are viewed and included within our community.

Miljøfyrtårn

AIS is proud to have received the Miljøfytårn certification. This week, Miss Mya and Mr Mark joined Mayor Lene Conradi at Asker Rådhus to receive the certificate and share ideas. This is an ongoing effort that requires the whole school community to come together and contribute. 

Three groups from Grade 4 had the opportunity to represent AIS and participate in the Cargo Connect LEGO League Jr competition in Oslo on November 13th. They presented their innovative vehicle designs to the judges in order to change the way we transport cargo. It was a great day that ended in each group receiving a medal.

Marketplace

To end our Advertising unit in Grade 4, we focused on sustainable consumerism and Goal 12: Responsible Consumption. For their summative assessment, the students created an advertisement poster printed on recycled paper and held a Sustainability Market for Grade 3s to resell products they no longer use. They managed to raise 3740kr to be donated to charity. Great effort, Grade 4s!

Grade 2 also hosted their Marketplace this week. Grade 1 was invited by the Grade 2’s to visit their Marketplace. The students had a wonderful time learning about what the Grade 2’s had been doing in their unit of inquiry and even got to buy some of the products they had made. Thank you Grade 2 for a fantastic experience.

AIS Sports Leader

What is the AIS Sports Leader program?

The Sports Leader program is a way for students to develop leadership skills that they will be able to utilise throughout their life, while also giving students alternative opportunities in sport, rather than focusing solely on performing. They pass through each stage from Grade 5 to Grade 8 learning the fundamental skills of being a leader, before having the option to take part in the AIS Sports Coach award in Grade 9.

What are the benefits of this program?

-Develops students’ leadership, organisation and communication skills

-Improves their confidence

-Employment opportunities when they leave school

-Giving back to the school and wider community

-Becoming a role model for other students

-The chance to change someone’s life for the better 

PYP P.E. Lessons

Our PE lessons in the Primary Years Program focuses on students developing the essential skills to become an active participant in the whole school community. Our PE lessons are integrated into the class units to allow the students to link multiple subjects and concepts together. Many of our lessons will focus on the learner profile, aiming to develop caring and knowledgeable students, who are able communicators that not afraid to take risks. 

MYP P.E. Lessons

Alongside the more traditional sports that many schools and curriculums focus on, we at AIS like to do things a little differently. Our students will take part in a wide variety of sports that challenge their minds and bodies in a multitude of ways. At AIS students take part in some of these lesser known/practiced activities:

-Quidditch

-Parkour

-Softball

-Modified games (games for people with special needs)

-Flag football

-Crossfit

-Touch rugby

What do our students think?

In PE we do a variety of sports, like floor hockey, basketball, gymnastics, volleyball and even Quidditch!

-Klara

At AIS in PE the teachers encourage us to do things out of our comfort zones.  

-Niharika

PE teachers show us the other side of sports or activities that you may have not liked and show that it can be interesting and engaging.

-Arina

PE at AIS is skill-learning and develops your thinking skills and how to respect others around you.

-Erik

PE is a very fun refresher subject when you get tired from sitting on a seat the whole day. Teachers give loads of opportunities for children to express themselves, and there is always something fun to do.

-Taha

PE helps me gain a better understanding of games that I didn't know or didn't fully understand. The teachers are very thorough when explaining and listen to us when we have feedback.
