Last month have seemed to pass us by very quickly! Teachers have been busy for the coming up Parents’ Day and our Parent Teacher Meeting. We would like to thank all parents for taking the time to come and discuss with us about your child. A gentle reminder, kindly sign and return the progress reports by this week.
We have had such wonderful changes in the Toddlers class. We have the classroom walls newly painted. Last month our focus was Colours and Shapes. We sang the classical song I Can Sing A Rainbow in order to help the children learn the colours of the rainbow. They learned about primary and secondary colours. The children also created many beautiful artworks from this unit. The children will continue to be able to use many different materials and techniques to create their art for the rest of the year. We will be increasing the amount of free art projects to allow their creativity to flourish.
We are pleased that Ms. Joyce a local artist is willing to spare her busy time to organise holiday art workshops for our children during this coming 2 weeks school holidays. These programmes stressed on child’s creativity and encourage the child to think out of the box. We will be using a vast variety of art tools, recyclable materials, lolly sticks, egg cartons, paper plates, dollies, old magazines, fabrics, buttons, etc.
This month we will be learning all about Nursery Rhymes. Nursery rhymes stimulate memory, improve language skills, develop appreciation for music, enrich vocabulary, develop phonemic awareness, encourage thinking skill and they are fun!
Some of the activities that we will do :
- Sing along with the nursery rhymes and learn rhyming words
- Learn prepositions on, in, above, under, behind, in front with Humpty Dumpty
- Experiment with sink and float using Jack and Jill’s pail
- Learn time with Hickory Dickory Dock
- Learn pairing and matching with Hey Diddle Diddle
- Learn tonque twister with Peter Piper
