Oral Reading

Dear children,

You are strongly encouraged to listen to the song/story “We are Going on a Bear Hunt” (Click on the title to see the video). The man that you see in the video is the author Michael Rosen. Pay attention to the way that he tells the story. 

  • How does he read and pronounce the words? Is it expressive?
  • Are the ending sounds pronounced clearly?
  • What happens when there’s a question mark (?) or an exclamation mark (!) at the end of a sentence?

Do continue to practise your oral reading everyday. You may record your reading using a handphone. You may also ask your parents or siblings to listen to you as you read aloud any passage.

Have a good weekend ahead!

Health Education: Healthy Kids Card

Dear children,

Do encourage your parents or guardians to take part in the Healthy Kids @ EDP project. You may get them to sign on one of the eight pictures every time you complete each activity. The eight pictures are those that you have marked out yesterday. Please note that this project will be used for your Health Education SA 2 assessment.

Do bring the card to school everyday so that it will be easier for you to earn more stamps. Remember that you are responsible for keeping the card safely.  If you have any questions about it, please approach me. Thank you.

Poetry Lesson: Sounds

On Monday, 2I children created their own poem on sounds. This was an extension activity based on the big book (The Growl) that the class was reading. The pupils were brought on a tour around the school and were asked to listen carefully to the sounds that they could hear. After that, they sat at the tables outside the library to create their poem. The children were told to be as creative as possible when coming up with the sound words. They were encouraged to invent their own spelling for the sounds they heard.

What do you hear, children?

Deep in their thoughts
