a) Rolling
* Today, the kids rolled their craft made yesterday; so as to paste the edges together. No, it looked like a toilet roll.
* Then, each got another piece of cardboard. They wrote their names with the title, "Firefighters".
* Then, they decorated it with any desired patterns.
* Next, they queued to allow me paste the rolled craft to the written cardboard. I used a glue gun which was too hot and dangerous for the kid to handle. Thus, reminders were told again to beware of the hot glue gun.
* Some kids mentioned that they preferred to keep rulers while some keep flowers. Foo Soon suggeted that erasers are not suitable to be kept there as the container is too deep and narrow for our fingers. Shi Jie suggested that a smaller box (such as match box) pasted beside the roller craft would be good. :)
b) Rhymes and songs.
* We sang the "Safety" song using different vocabulary substitutions. Among them: matches, lighter, candles. Jun Yu suggested iron too. Wee Hong suggested fire crackers. So the song went:
"Never play with matches..........(x2),
It's not safe, it's not safe!
You could start a fire,
It could really hurt you,
It's not safe............(x2)"
* Then, we recapped on "The Five little Firefighters".
* We also recapped on flashcards to reinforce vocabulary learnt.
