Highlights of the Week (24/25 Term 2 Week 11)

PN

Hey there friends! It’s our final week before the Easter holidays, and we had such a blast! We kicked it off with our favourite - the alphabet, and learned all about the letter S by slithering like snakes, shining like the sun and sparkling like the stars! We’ve learned so many letters already, and we’re getting really good at remembering and finding all of them. Of course, we also did a fun lesson all about Easter – hopping around like the Easter bunny and cracking open some Easter eggs. We wrapped up our final week at school with some fun math activities, learning all about long and short. It’s so funny to see all our favourite classroom things become long, long, long, or short, short, short! Our PNs had such a great week, and we’re all so excited to see what happens when we come back after our holidays.

Hello, everyone! Welcome back to our ABC blog!

This week in Phonics, we focused on blending with the sound /ck/. The students practiced sound decoding through fun worksheets and enjoyed a lot of blending activities.

In our Cambridge lessons, we reviewed vocabulary related to jobs. The students practiced asking and answering questions such as “Is he/she a …?” with responses like “Yes, she is” or “No, she isn’t.”

For Math, we reviewed patterns ABAB and ABCABC. The students had a great time creating their own patterns.

As Easter is just around the corner, we held a fun Easter Egg Hunt around the school, which brought lots of joy and excitement. For Book Character Day, the students were entertained by a fantastic skit performance by the teachers.

That wraps up our short but eventful week. We wish you all a Happy Easter and hope you enjoy the long holidays!

What an exciting week of new learning! This week our K2 students continued their lesson on Clocks in our Math lessons. Last week, we learned about the term "o'clock" in relation to digital clocks and this week, we're expanding our understanding by exploring the same term in the context of analog clocks. Students discovered that when referring to the term "o'clock," the long hand points to the number 12. To test for their understanding, teachers called out different times and students need to put the correct numbers in the digital clock and point the correct hands to the correct numbers for the analog clock. What a great exercise!

For Critical Thinking this week, we continued to practise devotedly for our Mother’s Day song. We have also prepared Mother’s Day cards in which our students put on butterfly designs and decorating the cards with pictures and write messages for their mummies. The students put in a lot of effort practising and making detailed drawings ready to be shown to their mummies on the Mother’s Day concert. It will truly be a day to remember!

Welcome to another week of learning in our K3 class! This week for Critical Thinking, we continued our project by planning what we want to share in our presentation. We created a flow chart to help us with all the information we have about our project. We wrote about the reasons why we chose this topic and the materials we used. We’re almost done with our project and are so excited for our presentation day.

This week for Physical Play, we learned about dribbling. We took turns seeing how many times we can dribble the ball and created our own games using the new skills we learned.

We dived into a new topic called Under the Sea during our Cambridge lesson. We learned some familiar animal words and learned new words like anchor. We did quick research on what an anchor is and familiarise ourselves of the use of it. We also took turns finishing a puzzle about our new topic.

Have an awesome Easter holiday and see you again next time!
