Pack Those Cookies & Vote for New Topic

Now, the cookies are ready for packing. Before that, we needed to find out how many cookies can the children bring home today. We counted the numbers of children in the class, there are 16 of them. Therefore, I told the children that we shall group the cookies in 16.

After counting all the cookies, there are 3 big groups, the children are very excited to know that they could bring at least 3 cookies home today. I called them out one by one and get them to choose one cookie from each group and put it into the plastic bag that I have prepared.

As we looked at the dates, Chinese New Year is pretty close and our topic would come to an end soon. Therefore, I suggested that we should choose a new topic for us to start once we come back from Chinese New Year holiday later.

The children suggested 4 topics -

About Myself (body), Transportation, Clothing, Food.

I explained briefly the content of each topic here with some help of drawings. Then, the children start to vote for their favourite topic. Each can vote twice. Finally, "food" is the topic that got the most votes. I believe food would be a fun topic to learn and play!
