Dear Parents,
This is the last blog that I am putting up for 2 Flexibility.
It has been a good two years with the class, working with you as my fellow team mates to support and guide the children. Thank you for being such a good team mate!!!
Today, the children are receiving the following items:-
a) report book with results and class posted indicated. - I just peeked at the report books prepared by Mrs Ho. I think Mrs Ho just put the I 1 or C1 etc. She meant 3I 1 or 3C1. So please do take note. Although the number 3 is omitted, it is taken as known to all.
b) Exam scripts for English, Maths and MT, and Oral feedback form
c) Home Econs paper - recording what we did yesterday - to be placed in English file at the end of the file
d) Poster that I have made for the class - if it is not in a good condition when it gets home, I still have a few spare copies. I hope that the children can have a good souvenir for their two years together.
e) Rewards as promised based on 'earnings' for good behaviour, results etc etc etc. Reminders were given that this is a bonus and regardless of rewards, as pupils, they must work hard. I told them I want all the 2F children to work hard in P3. They will still see me for the Good Children Rewards - which is given for every class by me.
A BIG Thank you to our parents who helped to organise the party today! Thanks for organising this! All the children have enjoyed themselves. They have brought back the 'balloon' that they have made during the party.
I have spoken to the children and got a bit teary, (hopefully the children did not see), as I will miss your children. It was a great two years working together:) Mrs Nair and I also got to hug each child before we all, as a class, for the last time, walk to all the 3 dismissal points together and 'drop off' the children and wished them happy holidays.
With that, I would have completed my 'stint' as their English and Maths Teacher for two years!
I wish your child all the best in his or her P3 next year! I know they would be wonderful and I look forward to hearing wonderful things about them in future.
Please take care and have a wonderful day everyday!
I shall now sign off for the last time. Thank you!!!
P.S. Those who may have missed the report books etc, they should be in Mrs Ho (FT)'s pigeonhole. As for the rewards, I will deliver them to those who have to leave earlier in January 2013, as the rewards are too big to be squeezed in the pigeonhole and the office cannot be a place for storing such things.
See you around. Take care!
Happy Holidays!

Dear Parents,
Today we had Home Economics lesson ( postponed from last week) in class. The children tasted different combinations of the Bandung drink with various proportion of milk and rose syrup. They then decided which they liked best and stated the reasons why.
They also did a Maths Worksheets for the follow-up of the Maths Research by the level. They also had their last Mental Sums today. The Mental Sums book has been returned to them today.
Tomorrow for Party Day, they would not be having any lessons.
1pm to 2pm - In the hall for a 'reactment' of the prize giving day for the P1s and 2s prize winners, and also a tribute to Mr Ng from the pupils.
2pm (or thereabouts depending on when the hall activity ends) till 5pm will be the party day.
I will have to end the party at around 5pm tomorrow, as there are report books to be given out, plus returning of the exam papers, plus my rewards and the mystery gift to them, plus my final farewell to the children after two years.
Note: Mr Sy has already announced to them that tomorrow they can wear their home clothes, but need to wear school shoes. But No Sleeveless clothes.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!

Re: An explanation of the P3 classes in 2013
Dear Parents,
Please do note that there are two clusters - the Integrity Cluster ( selected based on overall results by comparing the whole cohort) and the Care Cluster. Please be informed that the Integrity classes I1 to 15 - are the same - in the sense that the children are selected based on overall results but are then spread out equally among the classes, thus I1 = I2 = 13 = 14 = I5 . There is NO top I class. Then the rest of the children are in the Care cluster and once again, the children are equally spread out once again. Thus C1 = C2 = C3 = C4 = C5 . There is No top C class.
Fyi please. Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!
Ow Yeong
P.S. The children will know their classes along with their report books on Thursday.
Note: 53% of our class children are in the Integrity cluster. 47% are in the Care cluster.

Dear Parents,
Today, the children wrote Thank you notes to their friends to express their gratitude for the times when they felt thankful or grateful to their friends for helping them. The children then delivered these notes personally to their friends.
Then we had Mental Sums ( we will continue till Wed as the children still need practice now and then). Today, we have retrieved the penmanship books from the container classroom and have returned them to the children.
The children then did a journal entitled " My Primary Two Experience" reflecting on the things learnt, as well as their high and low points, and what they would miss most from Primary Two.
Thanks.
Here's wishing all Hindu parents and children Happy Deepavali!
I will see your child on Wednesday.
Thank you.

Dear Parents,
Today the children had Team Art - by creating on each other's art piece and everyone in the class (All 30) -and also including Mrs Nair and I joined in - the children took back the final product at the end. They had to think of how to add on creatively ( but must be nice and positive) on the art piece passed to them. This activity focused on creativity and character values.
Then there was a short briefing by our Parent I/C for the Class Party for the children (Mrs Nair and I don't know what went on as we were invited out then...) .
Then the children completed their penmanship (if they had not done so) and also did a piece of art that represents them. This will be used for Show and Tell in later English lesson. Those who could not finish were asked to bring it back to complete so that we can start the Show and Tell together as a class.
P.S. Tomorrow, we will have IT Maths.
Thank you.

Dear Parents,
Today for English, we had a movie Review on the movie - Bambi, while the pupils were called to do the online end-of-the year school's pupil survey one at a time. This is the second type of contribution for a newsletter. ( First was writing a news article - in this case a 'twisted' one based on another version of a well-known nursery rhyme or story, now a movie review.) We would continue to learn other types next week. At the end of the English lesson, the class listened to an audio story.
For Maths, we had the second part of our project - drawing up the table with the same research question, and then interviewing each other in the class for the data. Next week, we would continue the project. I am moving the children one step at a time for this project.
P.S. We would be going through the SA2 main papers sometime next week, after all absentees had taken the paper on Monday.
Note: We are still using the venue we are using these 2 days as our classroom on Monday. It is also an airconditioned classroom - but not a container. It is a special room for MT, but we are 'loaning' it and 'shifting' those who usually use the room somewhere else for the time being.
Thank you. Have a wonderful day and a long weekend break! I will see your child in school again next Monday.
Selamat Hari Raya Haji ( to our Muslim parents)!

Today, we watched news story with a twist (a few videos) and the children created their news stories. We intend to compile them for the newsletter project.
For Maths later, we would be starting on a project which trains the children to do a simple survey and simple report, based on data 'generated'.
Note: There are still absentees in the level who had missed their EL and Maths SA2 papers, as such we could not go through the SA2 papers as yet.
P.S. Thanks to Mrs Singh, who had helped me blog the Health Alert. I was marking the SA2 papers with the level teachers and could not access the blog earlier, and thus had messaged Mrs Singh to help post the info. Fyi please.

Dear Parents,
Today the children had their Maths SA2. After that, we had reflections done, as well as Mental Sums.
Things to bring daily till 31 Oct include
- A4 size blank paper - 5 sheets
- Stapler
- Colouring materials e.g. colouring pencils, markers, crayons etc
- Drawing block paper - 2 sheets
- 15-cm ruler
We will be doing Maths and English projects, as well as Social Studies project for the remaining days/ weeks, in class, besides going through the SA2 papers when everyone in the level has completed their exams ( when the absentees have taken their exams this week).
By the way, I would like to get help from Parents who would like to plan our class party plus (to see if we can arrange any excursion if any) for the children, before they get separated in P3 in the various classes. I need an 'organizing committee'. Can parents who are interested to plan ( I'll provide the input re what I have in mind but I would need help to organize and do the nec prep work etc. ) and organize, please message me by end of this Friday? After the SA2, we can meet up together to come up with a more concrete plan. 'Criteria for involvement' would be your ability to meet up with us to discuss in the mornings, as I would only be able to call for meetings then. I am also printing something for the children and will need help to liaise with the printer as well.
Thank you. Have a wonderful day!

Dear Parents,
Today, I reviewed with the whole class - I spoke individually to every child, on English Paper 2 , and the areas that they need to be aware of, based on each of their areas for improvement. The children were also encouraged to ask me questions when in doubt ( our consultation session). They also did their corrections for comprehension. The children also did Revision Paper 2 for Maths, and enrichment for Maths as well. Both of these papers will be returned on Monday. As we had a short time together todays - only 4 periods (2 for English and 2 for Maths) , those who could not finish brought the Maths Revision paper 2 back. We would be going through the papers on Monday, after the English SA2.
I have given the children their Maths performance Task on Graphs today. They have also received their Social Studies test paper as well. Please check and sign next to the mark. It is to be filed in the Maths file right at the end, and in the English File respectively. Other papers e.g. notes taken by them for Maths and Comprehension Booklets which were left in the old classroom were retrieved and returned today to them. Btw, I am keeping the SA2 Oral feedback forms as the level will return that only after all 3 SA2 papers .
I am still keeping their penmanship books, Journals as well as Mental Sums ( as they could still practise and complete, as well as practise Mental Sums (after the exams). These are non-examinable components.
Things to bring on Monday - a) Social Studies Activity book ( The Social Studies Subject Head wanted to do a book check.)
b) Foolscap Paper - 4 sheets
c) Green Pen
Note: Timetable is suspended on all the SA2 exam days. No more homework from now onwards.
The English Paper is on Monday and the Maths Paper is on Tuesday.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful weekend!
P.S. All the best to your child for his / her SA2 next week!

I am still keeping their penmanship books, Journals as well as Mental Sums ( as they could still practise and complete, as well as practise Mental Sums (after the exams). These are non-examinable components.
Things to bring on Monday - a) Social Studies Activity book ( The Social Studies Subject Head wanted to do a book check.)
b) Foolscap Paper - 4 sheets
c) Green Pen
Note: Timetable is suspended on all the SA2 exam days. No more homework from now onwards.
The English Paper is on Monday and the Maths Paper is on Tuesday.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful weekend!
P.S. All the best to your child for his / her SA2 next week!

Dear Parents,
Today the children received their Maths Activity books 2B Part 1 and 2, as well as their Portfolio. They are also given their Maths Worksheets for Graphs which we went through as a class. This is to be signed by you and filed in their Maths File. For those with corrections, they must bring their Maths Activity books 2B Part 1 and 2 to show me next Friday.
Spelling book is also returned today.
Today, we also went through the Maths Revision Paper 1. However we ran out of time when it comes to the word problems. Thus I could only give them the final answers and I told them I would go through in detail next Friday w.r.t. models, statements and workings. Fyi pl.
For English, we went through our English Revision Paper 2.
Please note that there is NO school for the next week from Monday to Thursday ( PSLE marking days). Please do remind your child to use this time for revision. I have assigned e-assignments which can help with the revision.
I will see your child next Friday to do a final review for English, and to go through Maths and also to do Revision Paper 2 for Maths.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day and a great weekend!
