Wednesday （13/01/2010）

a) Diagram: Fire Engine or Fire Truck
* I showed them a picture of a Fire Truck. It has a siren in front of the truck while a long ladder on top of it. There are also tools such as axes, K-Lock, water hose, First Aid box. A driver will be in front while the rescue dog and the other Fire Fighters would be in the truck. Thus, from here; we recapped the duties accordingly which they already chosen the day before.
* Jing Kai and Devin – the wheels. Zhi Feng, Zheng Yuan and Wei Jeen in charged of making the ladder. Xin Tong and Shi Jie in charge of the Rescue Dog. Qian Joe and Jun Yu in charge of making the firemen. Zhe Qing and Yun Xin in charge of decorating the receptionist table. Jing Kai and Wei Hong in charge of the hose. Foo Soon and Yan Shan wanted to make the burnt building. Xin Tong and Zhi Feng agreed to bring toy phones.

* The 6 year old kids were given the leadership responsibility to guide the 5 year-
old kids.
* Foo Soon and team constructed the burnt building.
* Jun Hong and team constructed the fire truck.
* Shi Jie and team constructed the flowers and rescue dog.
* Jing Kai and team constructed the wheels.

c) Never, never, never give up!
* Zheng Yuan and Jun Yu wanted to make the ladder. They searched for items and found straws. With little prompting, they managed to cut the straws and fixed them as a ladder. It was a challenge for Zheng Yuan to peel the double sided tape for pasting but he managed too.
* Qian Joe tried using the sate sticks to make the ladder. Eat idea too!
* Zhi Feng and Devinn drew circles for wheels while Jing Kai guided Zhi Feng to cut as round as possible.
* Zhe Qing assisted Xin Tong at decorating the rceptionist table. Zhe Qing also made a paper ladder….wow!
