The Rainbow

Friday (27/03/09)

a) New vocabulary
Our new words are jellyfish, octopus and starfish.

b) Dehydration
Human beings without water would die off on the tenth day. Thus, water is so important because they cleanse our body and also builds healthy skin and body.
leaving a fresh apple in the class for two weeks, we saw how the skin crumpled and the weigh even got lighter.
I brought in a fresh apple. We recorded the weigh of each apple.
Fresh apple = 150 gram. Evaporated apple = 120gram.
Total = 270 gram.
The kids learnt that fresh food must be properly kept to avoid fungus as well as unhealthy for eating.
The reason for the weigh difference was “evaporation”.

c) The Rainbow Song
We learnt new song about rainbow.
There are 7 colours in a rainbow. The colours accordingly are:
Red, Orange, Yellow, Green, Blue, Indigo and Violet.
However, the song lyrics were different. The kids were aware of it saying that the lyric was wrong.
As this song is accompanied by music, the kids said its okay to follow the original lyrics....haaa!
Then, Jen Ning found that the sentence “Listen With Your Eyes” is wrong. She said it should be “ See With Your Eyes”. Max agreed and the other kids all agreed too.
They loved this song.

d) Continuation of Finding Nemo
When marlin and Dory awoke from the jeelyfish attcak, they found themselves with a group of turtles who migrate to lay eggs.
They turtles were kind enough to guide both Marlin and Dory the direction to Australia Sea.
While at the Australia Sea, they were swallowed by a Blue Whale. Dory claimed that he could speak whale's language.....the kids laughed heartedly........haaaa!
Luckily, they escaped through the Whale's Blowhole.....hooray!
The water splashed them to Sydney, Australia.......not far from Nemo and the Aquarium Tank.
