Moon Cake Baking

Thursday (08/09/2011)

a) Moon cake.
• Teacher Huang guided the kids at this activity.
• Ingredients: water, Oil, Sugar and flour dough. She has mixed those into a proper dough beforehand.
• She took a ball of dough, showed the kids how to make a pig cake.
• Beforehand, I have explained to kids; the various shapes that they wished to make. Their ideas were Angry Bird, Mc Queen car, dinosaurs, butterflies and tortoise.
• This activity is similar to playing with clay except that after making the shape, our school assistant, kakak; helped to spread egg gravy on each moon cake dough.
• Then, Teacher Huang baked them in the microwave. They looked beautiful and kids could bring home their baked moon cake at school dismissal.


b) Storybook Continuation.
• We sang the song “Oh, Chang Er…. Oh, Chang Er…” in English version.
• Then, we read the “Lantern Festival” short story of 10 sentences; together and loudly.
• The kids started enjoying the song. We continued with the colouring. Kids then cut them out. The cutting process was a challenging part for some kids. Then, they arranged the pictures in sequence and I stapled for them. We should be able to decorate the storybook by tomorrow.
