Highlights of the Week

The PN students have acquired so much knowledge within the past weeks as they are now familiar with the class routines and getting around the school. They are slowly learning the different things that they use in the classroom such as books, pencils and crayons. For English, they are learning about the letter B. Through singing songs and listening to stories, the children got to learn more vocabulary that begin with B. For Math, they continue to work on their counting skills and number recognition. Using physical games and some manipulatives, they tried to match the objects that are associated with the number 1 or number 2. It’s amazing to see how much fun the children are having from learning new things at school.

It’s been an eventful week at school for our K1 students. We continued our Cambridge theme of ‘My Classroom’ with a story that showcased the importance of sharing and how happy it can make our friends. Our story encouraged a great discussion about the other things we can share and who we can share with. Math was lots of fun as we played games to reinforce our concept of ‘big and small’.We also did a hunt around our school and classroom to find ‘square’ shaped objects and used these objects to practice counting to 4. In critical thinking, we did a name craft to help students recognize their own name. We hope that decorating our classrooms with our name crafts will make the classroom feel more like home.

This week our students are taking a closer look at our school. For Critical Thinking, we are looking at the different rooms and their functions. Students are really intrigued and they are especially interested to see their own classrooms and the playground “which was voted as their favourite place at school”

Teachers would then take the students for a tour around the school and they have an opportunity to greet the staff and other teachers from other levels. They are given a check list of some items and rooms that they will find in the school so as they go around visiting the school, they can tick them off the list.

For Math this week we are finding the odd one out from a list of pictures. Students are asked to pinpoint a picture that doesn’t belong to a group of other pictures. For example, a “carrot” is a vegetable so it doesn’t belong to a group of “fruits”. To carry out this activity, students were able to categorize different objects into specific groups in order to find the “odd” one out!

Hello there everyone! Hope you all had an amazing weekend despite the heat! This action-packed week, our K3 students learned more about their school and classroom rules. They also learned about understanding their importance as to why we need to follow them. At the same time, the students began to have the concept of cause and effect of situations by having a discussion among our peers and engaging in a story-telling session with our teachers.

For Math, our K3 students were introduced to pictograms/pictographs - what they actually are and why they are used. They had fun finding out that pictures can be used in finding out information! We also reviewed our addition within the number 20 without using the number line to further challenge our bright minds.

Last, but not the least, our physical play this week focused on our core workouts in which our dear students tried out planks, leg lifts and sit-ups. It definitely got our students energized! Oh what another great week it has been! We can't wait to see you all back again for another fun-filled learning week!

主題----「我的家」

踏入主題「我的家」的第二週，老師安排幼兒在學校當家務小幫手，從中讓幼兒知道每個家庭成員都有着不同的職責。在親身操作的過程中，幼兒明白到自己已經長大，有能力自行完成自己的事情。為了鼓勵幼兒繼續努力學做大孩子，老師實行了貼紙奬勵計劃，除了讓幼兒學習欣賞自己的能力外，也培養幼兒的自信─「我做得到！」呢!

老師更利用小朋友的家庭照片一同製作了精美的相架送給爸爸、媽媽。

幼兒開始在大肌肉活動時進行體能的技巧訓練，大家都專心聆聽老師的教導，單手從地面拾豆袋,放在膠籃內，不單能保持身體平衡，更成功地把豆袋放進籃子裡呢~

學習目的

1. 知道家庭是家人一起居住的地方

2. 認識一些家庭用品的名稱和用途

3. 知道要保持家居環境的清潔

主題：「我的學校」－學校生活

今週繼續主題「我的學校」，在過去的兩星期，幼兒漸漸地融入校園生活，對學校建立了歸屬感，不但會唸學校校名，也認識學校裏幫助我們的人，包括誰是清潔姨姨、主任、老師等。我們亦認識了班中每一位同學，能說出結交新朋友的方法，知道與同學和睦相處的方式；老師更讓幼兒一起透過遊戲及親身的體驗與操弄，觀察自己課室的設施，從而認識不同角落的名稱，設備及規則。幼兒們都積極參與活動，相信很快便可全程投入校園生活。

學習目的：

1)知道學校裏有不同幫助我們的人

2) 認識班中的同學

3) 培養喜歡上學的情緒

主題----「我們的學校」今週的主題繼續圍繞著「我們的學校」。本週內，老師帶領小朋友們一同去認識校內的物品。過程中，不但提升他們對學校的了解，並從中學習到新的名詞。包括單車、圖書和課室等。期間，他們更掌握到不同類型的玩具，例如積木、拼圖。另外，本週老師講述到校內的規則，並嘗試讓小朋友判斷何為正確的行為。從而協助他們懂得遵守班規，並保持良好的個人行為。最後，今週又學習了一個新的部首「木」。當老師結合前幾週學習過的部首一起重溫時，小朋友都能準確地辨認到不同字詞屬於哪個部首並圈起來。通過這些重溫小遊戲從而增強和鞏固了小朋友的印象和認識。學習目的:

1. 能圈出「木」部首的字

2. 能遵守校內的規則

3. 能讀出開心、單車、圖書、課室
