Theme: I Love Stage Performance - Space
Teacher: Ms Yeong
What is space? What's so interesting about space?
I have gave some brief explanation to the children on the day before about space. However, only a few of them understand it.
Therefore, today, I guided the children to tell me what they know about space. Some mentioned about sun, star, moon, astronauts, space rocket etc.
We also talked a little about gravity and there's no gravity in space. The children also mentioned that the other teacher had shown them a video about how the astronauts pass urine in the spacecraft by using a bag.
Then, I did ask the children of their interest in space. I wanted to know what make space so special to them.
Some mentioned that space is scary, some mentioned that space is fun. Some even said that space got alien. All sorts of imagination.
Tomorrow we shall talk about the planets. Hopefully the children could focus as space is quite an abstract topic for some children.

Acting out the transportation rhymes

I got 10 children to demonstrate the rhymes before getting the rest of the class to act it out.

Books on airplane, bicycle

Books on airplane, bicycle
Today, I shared 2 books with the children. First, I shared a book on airplane - Away in My Airplane by Margaret. This is a pretty simple to read book. I believe after I have read it to the kids, they could try to read it on their own.
After that, I wanted to read another book on bicycle. Yet, before I do that, I get the children to share their experience in learning to ride a bicycle. Zi Yue, Sueanne and Lik Shin came out to share their experience. They admitted that learning to ride takes a lot of courage and practise yet, they were very happy now that they could ride on their own without much help. This makes some kids envy especially for those who were still on training wheels.
Then, I shared the book - Everyone can learn to ride a bicycle by Chris Raschka.
In order to come out with a performance related to transportation, I hinted to the children that they could use any of the transport song that I have taught them. However, after some discussion, they decided to make some changes to the dinosaur rhymes that I have taught them previously.
I only suggested some, most of the wordings were suggested by the children themselves. Here is the modified version of the rhymes that they could play with it later in the future:
Five little transports sitting on a road,
The first car said, "Let's go by wheels."
The second bus said, "Let's beep, beep, beep!"
The third truck said, "It's time to load,"
The fourth bike said, "Let's vroom, vroom, vroom."
The fifth van said, "Let's go!"
We shall find a time to have this practise and act it as our stage performance for the theme of transportation.

Noticeboard Project (part I)
After the discussion we had yesterday, I decided that the children could work on the noticeboard today. Therefore, I quickly get the task delegated before we all moved outside. Some of the children would work on pasting the water, land and the sky, while some would work on drawing and cutting some clouds, road and railway etc.
For those who had completed their initial task, they could help out the other groups of children before I allowed them to start to draw pictures of transportation on the noticeboard.
We only managed to complete parts of the noticeboard and we shall continue with it on next Monday.
Here were some pictures taken for the activity:
