Happenings at School for the Past Week...

This week was so fun! Of course, we had the once a year teachers’ day celebration and I was sure my teachers enjoyed it! I could see the joy in their faces when they received the gifts from you and me. They wanted to say a big thank you to you too! It sure felt nice to see all our teachers so happy.

This week, Ms. Angela read us 2 stories. One of which is called “The lion and the mouse” and the other, “Seven blind mice”. -

“The lion and the mouse” was a story of well, a lion and the mouse! One day, while lion was asleep, the little mouse ran over the lion and woke him up! Of course, the lion was very angry and wanted to eat the mouse up. But the mouse was very sorry and offered to help the lion if he was ever in trouble. Of course, the lion laughed at the little mouse and said that the mouse was too small to help him. With that, he let the little mouse go. One day, the lion was trapped and caught in the ropes! All the animals saw and left him. And guess who came to help? It was the little mouse! The little mouse actually bit the rope and made a huge hole so that the lion could run away! The mouse did save the lion after all and they became the best of friends.
“Seven blind mice” was a story of seven mice that couldn’t see. And yes, they were very colourful! One day, they found out that something had landed near their place and they didn’t know what it was. Day by day, each of the mice took turn to have a feel of what that something was. They went to the legs which felt like pillar, the nose that felt like snake and even the tail that felt like a rope! On day seven, the 7th mouse went all over that something and said that it’s an elephant! The other mice didn’t believe and went to have a look as well. And, yes! It was definitely an elephant. This book had very interesting illustrations and Vivian was pretty good at guessing what that something was!

We also learnt about the pre-phonic sound of letter “m” where monkeys are munching.

For math, we did threading of buttons and also a revision of shapes! We were really getting a hang on it but of course we needed more revision. You could do it together with me too. Amanda wass pretty good with her shapes.

For craft this week, we did a lantern each but we could not bring the lanterns home. Ms. Angela said that we were going to send the lanterns for competition. It was not about the prize but we definitely enjoyed it! I heard that it was going to be hung at Chinatown point. Maybe we could have a look when mid autumn festival is near?

And of course, we also had a performance on Friday in lieu of teachers’ day celebration. We wore our special aeroplane on and flew around the stage! Remember the surprise blue box that we painted last week? It was actually the aeroplane! Ms. Angela allowed us to bring the box back so that we could perform it for you. Do sing it with me so I could put on a great show for you!

That’s all for this week and I definitely am looking forward for a more exciting week to come!
