Welcome, children of 2010!

mMonday (04/01/2010)

a) Introduction
I introduced myself to the kids and they introduced themselves too by saying, “My name is........”.
I printed short slips of the kids' names. Upon calling each name, they raised up their hands. They pasted onto a small tag which was to be worn for the next 5 days. Hopefully, I can remember their names better and vice versa; they recognised their names better.

b) Song: Friends
I told them a short story of how a girl went to a new school. She was scared as everyone was new to her. We did have a few new friends in the class. Thus, one friendly boy came to be her friend. He sang a song for her and she started smiling. So, the song goes like this:

We walk to the left and we walk to the right,
And we walk, and we walk, and we walk alright,
With a heel and the toes and a half turn around,
With a heel and the toes,
And a new friend found.

c) Drawing
* Foo Soon, Devin and Xin Thong asked if they could draw. I agreed but asked what they were interested to draw. Some wanted to draw their friends and school. Some kids wanted to draw their favourite ideas in their minds. Example: Jing Kai requested to take a book from the shelf and Foo Soon joined him. They enjoyed drawing tigers. Zhi Feng drew his house with somebody listening to the radio. The others drew ABC Learning Centre and friends. Ming Yi drew her teachers as well....:) We shall continue tomorrow to get them explain thoroughly about their pictures.
