Highlights of the Week (23/24 Term 1 Week 9)

Hi to all of you! Welcome to week 9! Our PN classes continued the theme Family this week, and we got to talk about siblings and what we can do at home with them. During our role-playing, we had a lot of fun pretending to be brothers and sisters. We did many things together like reading books and sharing a mat for our “nap”! For English, we focused on revising letter C and letter D. We had a revision game during the lesson where we needed to take the different things out from the mystery box and sorted them into the correct letter baskets. We were all able to sort them correctly! For Math, we learnt how to use the words ‘big’ and ‘small’ to compare the sizes of various toys. To reinforce that concept further, we played a sorting game by placing the big toys in the big hula hoop and the small toys in the small hula hoop. What another amazing week it was! See you all next week!

Hello everyone. Welcome to week 9 of learning at ABC. The students were filled with joy as they returned to school after a delightful extended weekend. For Cambridge, we embarked on a fresh topic of My Body. The students familiarized themselves with the names of various body parts, such as eyes, nose, mouth, head, hands, fingers, neck, shoulders, and toes. The K1 students enjoyed singing Head Shoulders Knees and Toes song. For Phonics, we introduced letters R and S this week. For Critical Thinking, we engaged in discussions about Halloween, including when it is celebrated. The students explored the customs associated with Halloween, such as trick-or-treating, pumpkin carving, and home decorations. We also made a Halloween-themed craft, which the students thoroughly enjoyed. For Math, we introduced the shape; triangle and discussed how many sides it has. Additionally, the students practiced counting up to the number 6.

That’s it for this week. See you all again next week!

Welcome back! This week is another week filled with learning and fun.

For English this week, our K2 students recalled the farm animals they’ve been learning by trying to read out the words. In addition, they learned about the names of the baby animals by matching them to their corresponding mommies and daddies. We found out that baby ducks are called ducklings and baby horses are called foals.

To make it more challenging in our Math lessons, K2 students were given individual sets of numbers from 1 to 20 and their task was to put these numbers in order. After that, they were asked to practice reading some of these numbers out loud.

As the weather changes and the leaves are turning colours, it’s the perfect time to learn about Autumn in Critical Thinking. We played a game and learned about some of the things we can see during this season. We also discussed how the mornings and evenings feel like the past few days and found out that Autumn is when the hot weather goes away and it becomes cooler and drier. So, keep warm and see you next week!

Welcome to week 9! In this week, our K3 students got to learn about autumn in our Critical Thinking class. We read a story called ‘There was an old lady who swallowed some leaves’ together and we had a great laugh! She swallowed so many leaves and in the end she sneezed everything out and made a scarecrow!

For Math, our students have continued to learn about symmetry. This time, they tried to draw the lines of symmetry, it means if we draw a line down the middle of a shape, the two sides are mirrored and can be folded together!

For Cambridge, we started a new topic this week and the K3 students talked about where they live. We can now talk about where and what the buildings are on a map!

We look forward to coming back to learn more next week!
