Highlights of the Week

This week was filled with both fun and educational activities. The PN students started with a new theme of “All About Me”. They learnt about our face, eyes, ears, and nose. The children were introduced to the letter E and new vocabulary words such as elephant and egg. For Mathematics, the students were introduced to a new shape, the circle. After looking at some pictures that are similar with the new shape, we did some tracing, dotting and colouring to help them remember what a circle looks like. The days go by so fast when the children are having fun!

This week was full of fun for our K1s! For Cambridge, our K1 students were thrilled to learn about “My Family”. They did a show and tell of their family photos and were delighted to introduce their family members to their classmates! They learnt all about animals that live on the farm and what farmers do for their critical thinking lesson. We also had a grand time playing a game of ‘guess the animal by its sounds’ and sang ‘Old McDonald had a farm’! We then went on to making our beautiful sheep artwork in class. This week has been very eventful and we’re looking forward to the next week!

Hello October! We have been coming to school for a month now. We are now more familiar with our surroundings, new set of classroom rules and routines. This week started with a big house project for our Critical Thinking where we talked about the different rooms in the house. For Math, we learned to count and arrange numbers from 1 to 10. For English, we learned about the importance of helping at home and figuring out what are the things we can do as child to help. What a fun way to end the week!

We had a great week in K3! During the week, we had lots of fun starting our new October Critical Thinking topic: The farm! We brainstormed what a farmer does and even got to see some of today’s machinery that are used to farm their big fields! During Physical Play, we acted out things that farmers do at the farm like chopping wood, digging holes, and picking fruit from high up in the trees. For Math, we continued our addition of two-digit numbers, remembering to add the numbers on the right first. This will help us get ready for harder addition later on. We had a fun time searching and counting for things in our classroom to practice tallying and graphing as well. See you all next week!

主題︰「我的家」─我會做個好孩子

今週主題繼續圍繞「我的家」。透過圖片和實物分享，幼兒認識不同的家品及其用途，老師也藉此提醒幼兒注意家居安全，例如插座危險，不可把手指伸進去；刀和剪刀都很鋒利，不可隨便拿來玩等。另外，透過圖片和故事分享，幼兒知道自己長大了，有能力嘗試自己的事自己做，例如背書包、穿鞋子、收拾玩具等。爸爸媽媽在家也可一同培養幼兒「自己的事自己做」的良好習慣，一同製作「自己的事自己做」承諾書及蓋上小手印呢！

幼兒每天都在一點一滴地進步，例如在茶點時間，他們逐漸能向老師表達自己的需要，茶點後更學懂自己拿取書包收拾毛巾及餐盒，自理能力在一天一天的增強了！

學習目的:

(1) 認識嬰兒和幼兒的分別

(2) 知道家居安全的重要性

(3)能夠承諾會做個好孩子

主題：「我的家」─ 我的爸爸和媽媽

今個星期開始展開新主題「我的家」。老師透過講述故事、提問、討論及角色扮演等方式，引導幼兒理解故事情節及爸爸媽媽的角色。同時，我們亦透過情境圖片鼓勵幼兒嘗試介紹自己的爸爸媽媽，激發幼兒關愛父母的意識。過程中，幼兒表現積極，更樂於與同學分享自己與爸爸媽媽一起的日常生活瑣事，老師也藉此促進幼兒的思考能力及語言表達能力。

學習目標：

(1)學習回答有關故事內容的情節

(2)享受角色扮演的樂趣

主題：「玩具真好玩」－玩具的物料

今週，老師利用神秘盒子作引起動機，請幼兒通過觸摸及觀察各款玩具，從而引發幼兒的好奇心，老師藉此帶出各種玩具的製作物料，例如塑膠、木和布料等。另外，老師請幼兒嘗試介紹自己心愛玩具的製作物料，並重溫把物件按不同條件分類的概念。老師與幼兒延伸討論一些有關玩玩具的情境問題圖片，例如兩位小朋友在爭玩具，請幼兒討論及分享解決問題的方法，幼兒都能說出一起分享、耐心等待等，十分棒呢！

老師又製作了玩具名稱的字詞卡進行小遊戲，過程中請幼兒合作把字詞卡組合，並與同儕互相讀出玩具名稱的字詞，學習更多不同類型的玩具名稱和加深對今週詞彙的認識。

學習目的：

(1) 初步認識玩具的物料

(2) 介紹自己喜愛的玩具
