Orange
Colour
Today, we started with our
“orange” theme. Before we go in to any activities, we had a brainstorming
session. I wanted to children to tell me things that they know which are orange
in colour.
Teacher: When I mentioned
about orange colour, what comes to your mind? What can you think of?
Children: Orange
Then Yu Xi was trying to
describe an item but she also couldn’t really tell exactly what it is. I think
she wanted to tell about the persimmon fruit. Then I added on grapefruit and
pumpkin.
I brought 3 small oranges to
show the children, we had a brief discussion about what people do with orange.
Children: To eat.
Teacher: Right, to eat. What
else?
Children: Orange
Then we had an orange item
search. I divided the children into 3 groups with about 4 in a group but one of
the groups only has 3. I also gave each group a piece of paper. The children
needed to jot down the orange item they found in words or if they really can’t,
they can draw it out.
Let the hunt begin.
After 15 minutes of searching
around, the children had their list ready.
Group 1
Group member: Wei Lok, Derek,
Kwan Ming and Kern Ee
Item found:
toy
tiger, orange see-saw, orange kite, orange fish, orange store room, orange
watch.
Group 2
Group member: Jia Hoong, Yu
Xin and Zhen Yuan
Item found:

Group 3
Group member: Yu Xi, Phoeon,
Jun Qian, Wei Ni
Item found:
Orange
paper, orange book, orange fag (flag), orange kite, orange carrot (soft toy),
orange ox (toy), orange watch, orange see-saw, orange slippr (slipper), orange
ball, orange wall, orange tree, orange fish, orange toy, orange glue, orange
butterly
Most of the children used
drawing to record down their findings except for group 3 which most of the
items were written down. Through this activity, the children learned how the names
of items and also learned to ask and observe around their surroundings.
Treats Time
The children worked so hard
to get their list done. Therefore as a treat, I treated them the 3 oranges that
I brought. The children had a good time. Even though the oranges were
a little sour, the children still enjoy eating it.
