Dear children,

We had a class practice today to prepare for our upcoming Reading and Response Test. You would have learnt how to read a passage aloud in a more interesting manner and how to answer the few questions that come after the passage. We will be having our one-to-one practices on Wednesday, Thursday and Friday to better prepare you for the real test next week. In the meantime, you can practise reading aloud some of your storybooks and ask your parents how you can improve! :)

We also spent some time to finish up our discussion on the composition. Over the next few days, you'll have time in class to write your story. Think about it in the meantime.

During our FTGP, we watched a hilarious video of the Thirsty Crow and from it, learnt to set goals that are specific, achievable and timely. Remember S.A.T.. Complete Page 44 and Page 45 of your FTGP Journal together with your parents and submit it on Wednesday.

We moved on to Unit 3 for math and learnt how to draw part-whole models to represent word problems. Log on to AskNLearn to learn more about it. Watch the video below to see where you should go after you have logged in:

I will be away tomorrow for a course and will try to rush back to spend the last period with you. Do put on your best behaviour as usual when the relief teacher is around for art.

Please bring along the following items for art lesson tomorrow:

1) A sheet of drawing paper

2) Crayons / Oil pastel

3) Scotchtape

4) Scissors

5) String

6) 2 straws or chopsticks

You will be making a mobile like the one shown here:

I wish you all the best for your English test tomorrow! It will be held right after recess, so please don't play till you're perspiring during recess. You need to be able to focus to do well. Work hard! :)
