Hello Mummies and Daddies!

Happy advanced Lunar New Year! As the festive season draws nearer, our N2 children spent most of the circle time the past 2 weeks listening to various New Year songs and learning how to say New Year greetings like: Gong Xi Fa Cai, Xin Nian Quai Le. They also learnt about the different cultural dance often seen during the New Year such as Lion Dance and Dragon Dance.

Besides that, Rong Lau Shi have been engaging them in doing interesting Chinese New Year craft work. We would let them bring home the New Year decorations on Friday. You may support them by hanging their decorations around the house!
Look at the children at work!
Everyone wants to try being the "Lion"!
Can you guess who is pretending to be the lion?

***

By the way, some parents was asking me about the "Healthy Food song". Here is the link for the song - adapted from the Fast Food Song http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=GCPSh47gHz8 We have changed the lyrics of the song a little by substituting the words:
- 'Pizza Hut' to 'Vegetables'
- 'Kentucky fried chicken' to 'Red Apple'
- 'Macdonald' to 'Fishy Fish'


All these food items and the dance actions for each item are chosen by the N2 children. You may try to get them to dance for you at home!

***
Before I pen off, let me wish all parents and families, a very happy Lunar New Year! May it be filled with plenty of love, luck, good health and prosperity! For all families who will be going abroad during the festive season, have a fun and enjoyable trip! ((:

Love,
Teacher Shirley

Hello Mummies and Daddies,

In the month of January 2010, we welcomed 2 new friends into our N2 class. They are: Yuk Hong and Wei Ying. During the month, we bid farewell to Zhang Lau Shi and we wish her all the best in her future endeavours. And we welcome Rong Lau Shi into our N2 Family with open arms. Rong Lau Shi have 1 year of experience teaching in Singapore and several years of experience teaching in China. She graduated with a degree in pre-school education from China.
Currently, our N2 children are working on the project - All about myself: Staying Healthy!

Before focusing on our Staying Healthy, we spent 2 weeks doing pre-discussion and getting the children interested in our main theme: All about myself.
Children went on a outdoor lesson to explore the neighbourhood with their senses... hmmm, I see delicious cakes, and I can hear Chinese New Year songs playing in the background...

Hey... Something smells really stinky here. It probably came from the dustbin... Let's walk quickly!
27th Jan - Show and Tell: Our Favourite Food
Look at all our favourite food! This makes me hungry just by looking at it! :P
It was one of our happiest day in this month where we had the chance to eat our favourite food during snack time and to try out our friends' favourite food! (:
Here are some of the things the children said during the Show-and-tell session:
" This hello panda biscuit is healthy. It has vitamin D and calcium. "
" I bought this biscuit from far far away, must drive one. "
" Jiejie cook this hot dog in a frying an. Must put a little bit of cream inside..."
" This Kiwi is very tickerish... "
" My Daddy buy this big donut from the market."
***
We look forward to participating in more healthy cooking activities this month as we discover about the various categories of food found on the food pyramid for kids that will keep us strong and healthy! Yumyum! :P
