The final grade is based on intellectually rigorous examinations but the programme also requires students to submit coursework which is often self-managed to a significant degree. Students are expected to perform a variety of tasks in response to the different texts, working towards final examinations, which include both internal and external assessments. The DP language A1 English courses are designed to cover texts from a range of time periods and a range of genres, from different places. The school does not stock these as they are easily available to purchase in Tanzania.Īll students in M4, M5, D1 and D2 are required to have a laptop for use in classes.
Students in M1-M3 are required to have a simple calculator students in M4-M5 must have a scientific calculator. If your child wishes to purchase a calculator, please deposit the funds with our accounts office or MPesa funds to 0767-534766 (follow any MPesa payment with an SMS confirming details), and we can then issue the calculator to your child. Either calculator is suitable for the diploma classes. We currently have standard TI-84+ calculators in stock for sale at a price of US$ 150 (currently TSh 319,000/-), and also have a very small number of the colour, rechargeable CE model available for $170 (TSh 362,000/-). M5 students may also wish to buy this calculator. We strongly recommend the purchase of a TI-84+ calculator as this model will be used in teaching.

Often it is not clear who you should contact if you have a question or a concern. ISM Music Teacher and Program Coordinator Who knows what hidden talent we have lurking around ISM?! Sign-up sheets are on the Music Room door (Room 12). Rehearsal will be in CAS time twice a week and some Saturday rehearsals closer to the production. The final production will be at the end of the semester in December. If your child expresses interest, please be sure to encourage them to sign up. It surely is a tall task, but one that our D2 students are up for.įinally, auditions for our musical, Little Shop of Horrors, an upbeat rock musical, will be happening this week. They will be taking the piece of music from this TED talk and attempting to manipulate musical elements, incorporating some type of repetition, to make it more beautiful (or less ‘ugly’ as presenter Scott Rickard describes the piece). We welcome two students in as D1 Music students and our four D2 students have started an introductory unit to review the basic elements of music and how they interact within pieces of music. In Curricular Music news, our DP music students are off and running (or composing?) in our first week of school. Most lessons will start on 17th August, but a few may start on 24th August. If your child needs to rent an instrument, please see me in the Music Room to arrange that. In the first lesson, you or your child will receive a copy of our ISM Private Music Lesson Policies and as well our Instrument Rental Policy (if applicable). As well, I remind you that it is important to take the contact information of the private instructor so that you and/or your child can be in direct contact with your instructor if any conflicts arrive or there will be a late arrival. Please stop by and sign up your child at a convenient time (or send your child to do it him/herself). If you have not already signed your child up for music lessons he or she desires, the schedules for our instructors who are currently teaching are posted on the turquoise bulletin board outside Room 12 (Music Classroom). More details on these exams are given at. These exams will be held in either Moshi or Arusha (depending on the number of candidates). If you would like your child to register for the ABRSM (Associated Board of the Royal Schools of Music) musical theory examination on October 14th, please let me know by this Wednesday, 19th August, at the latest.
