a) Things that fly……
* The kids were very interested about “aeroplane” and “flying”.
* Listening to my cue, they flew around. They flew as aeroplanes, birds, kites, balloons, helicopters, rockets, Pteranodons, vultures and pigs………..ahhh…….can a pig fly??.......They stared at me.
b) Poem: the Flying Pig
* We did a poem, “The Flying Pig”
The Flying Pig
“Dickery, Dockery, Dare
The pig flew in the sky,
The man in brown,
Soon brought him down,
Dickery, Dockery, Dare”
T : How did the pig fly?
YP : That is not a real pig. It’s a balloon type of pig.
JN : You need t pump in air.
ZY : No, it’s a pig-kite.
Class : Ahhh!
* It could be anything that is of a pig’s image. They enjoyed the rhymes.
c) Analysing the better plane.
* The kids reported to me of their homework.
JN : My mother and father don’t know anything about paper aeroplanes.
T : It’s okay. Anyone else?
YP : We shouldn’t fold the paper to many times. It would be heavy.
JS : We could just stick 2 long wings onto a paper.
EG : Teacher, look at my new paper aeroplane.
* We decided to test JS, EG and my new aeroplane to compare with yesterday’s aeroplane. Since they liked Eg’s, we invited Eg to show the children. It was better but mine fly the farthest. So, majority voted to make my model.
d) MERDEKA and Malaysia flag
ZY : Where do we celebrate MERDEKA in Kuala Lumpur?
T : Dataran Merdeka…….What can you see on Merdeka Day?
Class : Police…....fireworks…..aeroplanes.
T : many children and adults would be performing like when I was in primary School. Some potrayed as “hibiscus”. There are also car parades and marching bands.
* The kids learnt to sing the song “Tanggal 31”. They sang with patriotisme…..haaaa!
* We coloured the Malaysia Flag after recognizing some symbols.
T : What does red mean?
SYu : Blood……..
T : Yes, the y are brave to protect their country. What is blue?
YP : Working together…..all the states.
T : Yellow?
Class : The King and Quee’s colour.
T : Do you prefer to hang around the school or make as flags?
* Majority chose for flags.
