Grammar Lesson: Past Continuous Tense

2I children learnt about past continuous tense during the English lesson today. To get them to practise using the grammar item in a fun and engaging manner, they were asked to play charades. Every group took turns to act out an action and the other children could only open their eyes when they heard the bell ring once. After that, they had to guess what that action was by forming sentences that made use of the tense. It was clear that everyone enjoyed themselves tremendously. Even the quieter pupils were eager to share their anwsers!

Can you guess what they were trying to do?

It's time to share your answers!

P2 Sports Meet

Although 2I did not manage to catch a glimpse of the YOG Flame on Wednesday (11 August), it was still a memorable day for all as the P1 & P2 Sports Meet was also held on that day. It was clear that the children had lots of fun participating in the events. They cheered loudly for their classmates and also their 1I schoolmates during the sports meet. At the end of the day, every child in 2I went home happily with a medal/token as well as the simple multilingual cheer that they had been taught last Friday.

Let the pictures say the thousand words. Enjoy (:

National Day Celebrations

On 6 August 2010, Endeavour Primary had its National Day celebrations. All 2I pupils attended school dressed in red and white. However, this year’s celebrations was different from previous years. Instead of singing songs, an emergency training exercise was held at the community-based level. The whole exercise took place not long after the second recess and ended at about 11.45am. Pupils even had time for a quick snack before dismissal time.

Here are some pictures.

Happy birthday, Singapore!

Say cheese!

Racial Harmony Day

On Racial Harmony Day, which was also Rainbow Day 3, pupils from Endeavour Primary came to school in their home clothes. 2I was not an exception as well.  All the children were dressed in their best clothes and they gamely posed for some photos.

During recess, pupils had the opportunity to play some traditional games at the NE corner. Some of 2I children tried the games and enjoyed them. However, they felt that it would be better if they could spend a longer time at the stations.
