Our super busy schedule with lots of fun while learning

We were tricked to the zoo.... , no waterplay at all!
Instead, we were given lots of task. However, at the end of the day, we were quite happy with the beautiful work that we have produced! Most importantly, we learnt to categorize the shape and type of leaves. It is really not very easy you know! You really need to observe carefully and concentrate while doing it!

In our next lesson, we learnt about flowers.

The next thing we know is that the flowers are with our tree. This is teacher Phyllis, 'man'! She never let anything 'waste' by making sure there is a learning objective to it!

On the display wall, it says : "SPOT THE DIFFERENCES". You can spot them all like me too right, mum & dad? But T. Phyllis expects us to also be able to spot if at any point of time the leaf or leaves will fly away due to the very strong wind in our school or some 'itching' fingers pricked it off. She knows she is a bit crazy! But these are some of the things that she will never ever compromise! She always has reasons to make us aware of the our environment. Oh man, she will check on us everyday!!! Wind, wind, go away...let the children rest for days...

So much to do from planting the seed to harvesting!

Will my plant really grow tall and strong without soil? Will it be a long waiting?

It is a lot of effort awaiting for harvest. Through the following speech and drama activity, we learnt how the weather affects our crops.

Should it harvest, I will be all ready to count ....
(quantity and numerals at the Math corner)
... and collect them for my favourite salad.
(reinforcement of quantity through reading & writing)

Lets check out how the roots run underground! - K1

We are like farmers today using the shovel to dig and soften the soil where our pumpkin sprout.

It's satisfying to see the roots to the sprout. To continue our observation, we transplant it to a glass bottle.
