Leonardo da Vinci

Thursday (25/03/2010)

a) Rehearsal
Today, we did a full rehearsal at the main hall. The kids took their props and flashcards and stood at their positions. Then, they marched out individually to share their sentences. Overall, they were very independent at sharing but they have to be more disciplined at marching and remembering their exact positions……haaaa….. J

b) Marching Practice
Then, we went marching outside. Their straight posture and swaying of arms were highlighted.
Then, they sang the National Anthem with more confident.

c) Leonardo da Vinci
l After 1500s, when a lot of graphite was discovered, people started making pencils. Pencil leads are made from graphite.
l One famous person who always carried and used a pencil was Leonardo da Vinci. He was a famous artist and also known as a scientist and inventor. WE watched a video clip and the kids saw some of his famous paintings included the human wheel, the baby and they also saw a few of his invention notes on helicopters and aeroplanes….to be continued.
