Bright Tots Campus term 2 lesson 5

Travelling for today was smooth. We arrived early but it was raining cats and dogs. I had to take a cab from MRT station to Teacher Shirley's place. Que for taxi was very long Luckily, I reached Teacher Shirley's place just in time. However, I couldn't go to AVA room by the stairs as usual as this path is uncovered. I met 1 of the parents at the lift entrance. We waited a while for the security to let us into the lift lobby. So ended up late again.

Today, Teacher Shirley's elder elder boy Marcus sat in the class as her hubby was caught in the rain and no one was at home

Today, we did

1. sing good morning and I am special song

2. musical instruments - maraca, tambourine, and castanets were given out to the tots to play with when singing Hey diddle diddle

3. tots were given roller to paint on a big piece of paper pasted on the wall. This was fun but Png Png stood there to observe instead of painting

4. a bag of 12 Lincoln logs (rectangular shape wooden blocks) were given to the tots to count and stack

5. Teacher Shirley showed a picture of giraffe then gave out a paper with outline of giraffe, 2 yellow stripes and 1 brown stripes of paper. Parents were to tear the stripes of paper and let the tots paste the torn pieces of paper on the giraffe outline. This collage craft requires small fingers to manipulate torn paper to fit the outline of the picture and focus on sticking a piece of paper at a time. Thus, it trains motor skill, focus and attention span.

6. read chinese rhyme Tian shang xing lian jing jing

7. Sing goodbye song
