Highlights of the Week (24/25 Term 2 Week 18)

PN

This week was full of fun learning! Our little ones revised the letters U and V through an exciting activity. The kids had a great time searching for the letters around the classroom and then sorting them into the correct boxes. In Math, we introduced the beautiful colour, purple, through a playful activity where students identified and sorted purple objects. For our theme, we explored the wonderful world of plants, learning about their parts and how they grow. The children enjoyed these fruitful discussions. It was a wonderful week full of discovery and smiles. Stay tuned for more fun learning next week!

Hello, everyone! Welcome back to our ABC blog!

This week in Phonics, we focused on blending with the sounds /y/ and /w/. The children engaged in various activities, such as listening to words and identifying the sounds.

In Cambridge, we read a story on ‘being prepared’. We also learned about clothes, discussing which ones are soft or hard and if they are for hot or cold weather.

For Critical Thinking, we had a heart-warming discussion about Father's Day. The kids shared what they love to do with their dads, such as playing games or going out together. We also read a story called Happy Father's Day.

In Math, we continued mixing colours. We mixed yellow and blue, which turned into green! The excitement on the children’s faces as they saw the colours change was priceless. We also practiced counting up to 18.

That’s it for this week! We look forward to seeing you next week.

The week has gone by so fast with loads of learning in our K2 class. As we stepped into the month of June, we devoted our thoughts to our fathers and acknowledged their significance in our lives. To set the mood for our exceptional dads, our K2 kids have also started practicing Father’s Day songs that we will perform for our dads next week. For Critical Thinking, we are creating different Father’s Day cards and we will present them to our daddies too. In addition, we read a book together called It's Father's Day written by Maddie Spalding and had discussions of previous special Father’s Day experiences with our dads.

In our Math class, we extended our lesson on counting in groups. During this week's lessons, we focused on the concept of counting in groups of 10. Have your child count in 10s for you, they’ve become so remarkable in counting in groups. We extended our learning of Math in our Physical Play by playing “Group yourselves...” The teacher would ask the class to group themselves in groups of 2s, 5s or 10s and checked by counting together out loud. What a great week of learning!

Welcome to another week of learning in K3A. The school term is almost over but there are still a lot of things to learn. This week in our Cambridge lessons, we are learning about kinds of illnesses. We took turns acting out some symptoms and our class doctor diagnosed us by providing the correct word. We also accomplished a page in our workbooks to use the words we just learned. It was a great way to start a new chapter for this lesson.

Father’s Day is coming up soon! We are so excited and happy to share our heartfelt performances to our fathers next week. However, there are a lot more to prepare for. This week for Critical Thinking we made guitars for our dads to show how amazing and awesome they are. Music is a great way to show how much we appreciate them and so we wish our guitars will be an amazing present for them. So, how are you preparing for Father’s Day?
