Teacher: What do you think about the cookie making we did yesterday? 

Phoeon: Very happy.

Wei Lok: Very good.

Wei Ni: Very excited.

Bee Chien: Very excited

Yu Xi: Very good.

Note: Other children didn’t what to say so they just looked at me and grin.

Teacher: Now you have some idea about cookie making, maybe you can help your mom to do it next time. Will you help?

Children: Yes, yes.

Teacher: Besides, cookie making, there’s a lot of work that mom and dad will do at home before Chinese New Year. How can you help your mom?

Children: Clean the window, clean the table, clean the toilet, clean the floor.

Bee Chien: Yes, I know. I can clean my toys.

I asked the children to observe the things or area in the house where they can help to clean up. 

Story Reading – Little Quack

This story is about numbers counting and also about courage to try new things. It is a simple and interesting story about 5 little ducklings whose first time leaving their nest and finding courage to step into the water.

Mr Wolf, what time is it?

This is a game teaching the children about asking the question in full and answer it correctly. Besides knowing how to tell the time, the children also learned about breakfast, lunch and dinner. Everyone has a good time playing the game.
