Jack And The Beanstalk

Tuesday (23/11/2010)

a) The Practice
• As Zhe Qing and Jun Yu had to go off earlier after lunch, thus we did our practice in the morning. Altogether, we used up 30 minutes …..wow! (including traing and being independent).
• The kids are more well versed now. They only need to know when to appear and disappear after the dialogue lines!

b) Organising individual files.
• As we had been doing various crafts and worksheets, it is best for the kids to organize their items in the individual files. At the same time, they know whether they have completed or ortherwise.

c) Jun Yu’s storybook: Jack and The Beanstalk.
• As we are more settled with Peter Pan, I thought we could have more new stories. I read this story with the class and who….it was lots of fun. Magic beans, huge beanstalk tree, monster, Jack the fast boy, the goose that laid golden egg ad eventually the monster died when it fell together with its Beanstalk to the ground.
• Moral: A very fun story yetwe shouldn’t take things not belonging to us. If Jack was unlucky, he could have eaten by the monster. If the monster’s tree was really down, he could no longer go home and would start attacking the Earth’s living things.

d) Individual Practice
• This session, I trained kids who needed more guidance. Qian Joe was very happy to help me cutting the skeleton skulls for pirates. The others played Corner Playing just for 25 minutes. There are really lots of things to be done prior performance
