25 June (Overview of lessons)

Dear Parents,
Today we had a briefing in class about 'Care'.  The children learnt that care comprises of not only looking after others who may not be well, but also entails caring about one's work - being careful and taking more care in one's work will lead to excellence.

We also had a Maths Mental Sums game and story. I told the children a maths story and the children learnt to take down notes and to answer 3 questions (involving calculations) based on the clues in the story.
The children practised the concept of addition, subtraction, multiplication and division via this activity.

Next, we had the children think of an animal sound and for the others to guess the sound, as an introductory activity. Then we read a big book 'Is the wise owl wise?'.  There were discussions on whether the wise owl was really wise. The children did a short review on this book as a follow-up exercise. Some children could not finish and was told to bring it back to complete. Two- thirds of the class completed this review and handed it in. We will be further exploring the language component of the book tomorrow, as well as practising the readers' theatre with this book.

Fyi please.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!
Ow Yeong
