The children will be going for their learning journey tomorrow. As Mr Ng requires all Heads of Departments to attend a very important meeting on 27 and 28 Sept afternoon, I will be away for these 2 afternoons. Apologies for any inconvenience caused. Rest assured that there will not be any learning missed due to my absence as written activities have been arranged accordingly.
For 27 Sept - The pupils will be accompanied by Mdm Aidi and Mrs Nair and the parent volunteers who have so kindly agreed to go with the children. The children will spend the rest of the time when they come back from their learning journey to complete their learning journey worksheet in school (till 5.30pm). They will have lessons during the last 2 periods of school.
For 28 Sept - The children will be having a writing quiz - please refer to the handout given to the children (below) for details. They will also review the maths work that they have done in class previously to check their answers and do corrections. Additional time will be spent on a review worksheet on Time and Money.
Here's the handout given to the children :
26 September 2011
Homework (Due 28 September 2011)
- Journal Writing – My Learning Journey to
(Guiding questions : When did you go to Jacob Ballas Garden
Where is it situated?
Which were the different areas that you visited?
What did you do at the Garden?
What did you learn while you were there?
What was your favourite area and why?
How did you feel at the end of the learning journey?
To hand in on 28 September 2011. (This acts as a practice and a draft – BUT this will be collected in class before the quiz.)
On 28 September, the class will be having their writing quiz in class – without referring to any materials from home. They will be given guiding questions similar to above. They will also need to illustrate their writing, thus it would be good to think about the experience and represent it pictorially as well.
Please think about possible questions to ask the guide at Jacob Ballas Garden ( in the Singapore Botanic Gardens at 1 Cluny Road, Singapore
