Dear Parents,
Today we had a briefing and I reminded the children on their readiness and attitude towards learning and preparation for their SA2. I also reminded the children that for their SA2 composition, they are to write on the school's foolscap paper, and to leave a line after writing on each line, besides remembering to write in paragraphs. Leaving a line after writing on each line is important so that it is neater and also if they need to add anything (a word or phrase or sentence) that they felt was left out during checking, they can put in an 'arrow up' ( inverted 'v') and write it in, in the space above.
We then did another practice paper 2. This time, this paper included a practice on listening comprehension as well. After that, the children watched clips, combined with my story telling of the the movie - 'Aristocats'. This is related to our experiential learning related to the big book 'Alley Cats'. The children then did a movie review - writing the gist of the movie, as well as comment on why they like or dislike it and the characters that they like in the movie.
For Maths, the children completed their Maths Worksheets on Geometry. The three pupils who did not finish brought the paper back to complete. Then the children practised and did exercises in their Maths Coursebook - using the dot grid paper and square grid paper ｔｈａｔ Ｉhave given them. We will continue this practice tomorrow. We will also be constructing composite shapes as well.
Reminder - There will be a Social Studies Test this Friday. I was also told by their HE teacher that there would be a ＨＥ Ｔｅｓｔ ａｓ ｗｅｌｌ ｏｎ ｔｈａｔ ｄａｙ．

Dear Parents,
Today, we had note taking and learnt about 3-D objects for Maths. We also did a worksheet on Geometry.
For English- we re-read the book ' Alley Cats' and highlighted the prepositions in the book. We then read animal poems with prepositions in the poem. The children then spent time creating animal poems with prepositions.
Things to bring tomorrow - Maths Coursebook 2B , Foolscap Paper - 4 sheets, A4 size blank paper 2 sheets, ruler and colouring materials like markers and highlighters.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!

Dear Parents,
Apologies for the typo in the things to bring and homework list - I have rectified with the children accordingly and they should have made the necessary changes on their copies.
As we had run out of time for them to complete their second draft (to rewrite their composition), they had brought it back as homework due tomorrow. For this draft, I have used blue to correct for them and to give them comments.
Note: In their composition, IP means new paragraph, p - punctuation mistake, sp - spelling mistake , T - tense error , ww - wrong word.
Have a wonderful day!

Dear Parents,
I did not have the chance to tell the children what to bring on Monday. But basically not much will be needed as the materials needed are all with me.
So they will just need their Foolscap Paper - 4 sheets, as well as A4 size blank paper - 4 sheets.
Thank you.
Have a wonderful day!

P.S. We are starting on the topic of Geometry next week, so it would be best to have your child read up on this topic in their Maths Coursebook in advance.
Thank you.

Dear Parents,
We just had the mid-autumn festival celebrations in school earlier this evening. Although only a small number of our class pupils stayed back, it was great fun watching the children enjoy themselves:)
Today, the English and Maths Files are returned for good - as we are moving to the P6 classroom for the next 2 weeks - our room is used for PSLE ( all things had to be cleared or moved out from our original classroom) , and as the exams are not too far away, I have decided to return the files for good. There are just two more topics - Geometry and Graphs for Maths, as well as just one more Big Book title - Alley Cats to cover, and we are on our way to pure revision...... I have just held on to Compo 3 as I wanted to use it to get the children to practise editing skills, so this will be returned much later after our activity. Scrapbooks are also returned today. When the relevant worksheets are done for the remaining topics, they will be returned for the children to file at home. So there is no need to bring the files again to school.
On Monday, I will return the Brain Gym file for Maths, as there was suspension of time table and a dental talk today and with the early dismissal, was not able to return everything, so we transferred them to new classroom to be returned next week.
Next Friday will be the Social Studies Test - based on the Activity book.
Have a wonderful weekend!
