8 Jan 2014 (Wednesday)

Dear children,

Time with you today was short, but I'm glad we managed to finish quite a few things.

We talked about the story "Bubble Trouble" today - its characters, its setting, the problem and the resolution. I'm happy that many of you were very enthusiastic in our discussion. We also learnt about words with different number of syllables today and had some time to complete the first Vocabulary exercise in your Bubble Trouble booklet. Remember to ask your parents to look at the Unit Overview and sign at the bottom of that page. I'm sure they'd love to know what you'll be learning for the next week or so.

We didn't have time to move on to more challenging math today because we had some housekeeping to do. By now, all of you should know how to comment on this blog (try it by writing a comment below this post!)

Please be reminded of the following:
1) Show the student profile to your parents. If any information on it needs to be changed, make the changes in pen ink. Bring it back to me tomorrow.
2) Give your parents the Information Updating Form to fill in. I'll need it back tomorrow too.
3) Prepare for your spelling this Friday using the spelling list I just gave you today. Those are numbers you'll need to learn how to spell.
4) If you find that your bags are too heavy, please let your parents know. Always check your timetable and pack just what is needed for the day.

For those of you who are in Mrs Gina Ow's Chinese class, she would like to remind you about the following too:
1) Chinese spelling on every Wednesday. The first one on Chapter 1 will be on next Wednesday.
2) Chinese bi ji, Page 4, No. 1-8.

Have a good evening with your family! :)

    1. Yes David, I believe you can be a good role model. If you'd like to know what "resolution" means, look up the online Cambridge Dictionary here: http://dictionary.cambridge.org/dictionary/british/resolution_3

    1. Hi, "housekeeping" here refers to the things we do in class besides learning the different subjects. These are things like giving out forms, talking about classroom duties, discipline, and so on.

      Who is this by the way? Please remember to sign off your comment with your name in future.
