Moral conscious theme: Risk Takers – We explained to the Squad that being a risk taker is like being a brave adventurer! It means trying new things, even if they might not work out. When you take risks, you learn and grow, and sometimes you discover amazing things about yourself and the world around you. Imagine if you never tried riding a bike or swimming because you were afraid of falling or getting wet? You would miss out on so much fun! Taking risks helps you build confidence, make new friends, and find new passions. It’s okay to make mistakes – that’s how we learn! So, don’t be afraid to take a chance, try something new, and see where it takes you. You might just discover something amazing! 

Writing and Phonics: This week the Squad worked hard on remembering and reading their sight word “look” and new sight word “at” – Please continue to practice sight words at home too. We also practiced letter formations “d”,” e”, and “f” in our workbooks, well tried Squad! The squad also engaged in an interactive worksheet activity where they clapped out the syllables of various words to identify their rhythm and pronunciation. They then cut out pictures representing different objects, such as binoculars, and pasted them into corresponding columns labeled 1-5, based on the number of syllables in each word. For instance, the picture of binoculars was placed in the column labeled “4”, accurately reflecting its four syllables: bin-o-cu-lars. 

Mathematics: This week, the Squad honed their math skills by practicing counting and basic addition. They were presented with a worksheet that has different objects and were tasked with counting each set, recording the corresponding number in the designated block. Finally, they tallied up the total number of objects across all sets and wrote the answer in the final block. We are impressed with how they grasped this concept so well! 

Cooking: The little chefs enjoyed a fun cooking session this week. Wearing blindfolds, they explored different foods using their senses of touch, smell, and taste.  

Creative Art: The squad created their own interactive senses book, exploring the five senses. For the sense of touch, they incorporated different textures using varied materials. To stimulate the sense of smell, they used different spices. During a nature walk, they captured the beauty of their surroundings through drawings, highlighting the sense of sight. They then cut out different foods from a magazine and pasted them down in their book for taste, and finally they crafted their own earrings using threaded beads, cleverly illustrating the sense of hearing by decorating a picture of an ear. They were so chuffed with their creation, hehe!
