Book blogs by 6d
This week we also have book blogs and a cute vlog by 6d
Thank you 6d for some really nice and interesting blogs. There was also a really cool video blog too. It looks great!
One of the best things to do, when you are at home most of the time, is to dive into an adventure…. by reading a wonderful book. All 6d students have written book reports in the past weeks.
Many students used Weebly to publish their book reportin the form of a blog. One student created a video, which is another creative way to report on a book.
To see the very cute video blog, please click here or on the picture of Jellyfish. (viewing permission issue now fixed)
Simply follow the links below to see the book blogs. Also available in a pdf sheet
Corona lockdown: Banners from 8b
ENCOURAGING BANNERS
These times give us all the more the opportunity to explore new ways of communication. To give a little bit of encouragement some students of 8b created encouraging banners for others to see. Keep hanging in there!

Ivy - the story of a girl and a robot: how technology can be really inclusive in schools
Last summer, one of our students was diagnosed with cancer and had to stay in the hospital for treatment. An opportunity, however, became available for the student to continue to participate in lessons at school; in the form of a little robot called `Ivy`. Ivy could be used as an avatar. There are 43 of these robots in Germany, 8 of them in the Berlin Charité.
After getting in contact with the Charité and having solved all issues regarding data protection, insurance, storage and permission letters of the students and teachers involved, the NMS school management cleared the use of Ivy with the school authorities… who agreed immediately. From that point on, Ivy the Robot took part mainly in English and Math lessons. A big thanks to the teachers involved who right away supported the use of `Ivy` in their lessons.
Message from the principal - racism
Dear school community,
In a matter of a few months - the world has changed.
The global community shares the burden of COVID-19 and is now facing the consequences of racial injustice.
It is our collective responsibility to support each other, our students, and our school community through this challenging time.
Your NMS Management
We are staying at home
Ms Sajid had the idea of collecting messages from our students, and the NMS staff created a collage of all the lovely photos that we received and would like to show it on the website. This is zoomable.
It is the NMS students (and a few teachers) sharing the message that we are staying home, in their native language. We think that this collage by and for our students illustrates the strength and creativity of the global NMS community. We hope that everyone takes the message seriously and stays at home, for themselves and for others.
This picture came a little later. It is also zoomable (message in Hindi). We have room for more of your messages here!!
