Dear children,

We regrouped today and appointed our new class leaders. Here's the new seating arrangement and the list of leaders for this term: 

Here is the cleanliness duty schedule for this term: 

We talked about the 5 love languages today: Words of Affirmation, Quality Time, Receiving Gifts, Acts of Service, and Physical Touch. You will know who your Secret Pal is tomorrow so that for the next 5 weeks, you can put into practice the 5 love languages and learn to be a good friend to your Secret Pal. In the meantime, you can start thinking about what you might want to do for him or her. If you plan to buy a gift for your Secret Pal, please remember that you should not be spending more than $1 on it. Your gift need not be expensive; it's the thought that counts. :)

During FTGP, we discussed how to grow our abilities today by working hard and working smart. We also talked about the story of the Donkey In The Well and the story of the Carrot, the Egg and the Coffee Bean.

Would you be like the donkey in the first story, shaking off the dirt and taking steps up the well one at a time?

Would you be like the coffee bean in the second story, letting the goodness in you make things around you better? 

I hope you would! :)

We finally got to start on division for math today. It was mainly revision of what most of you should have known from P1, but I could already see that quite a few of you have forgotten your multiplication. Revise your 2, 3, 4, 5 and 10 times tables again! You will really need them.

We will have our art lesson this week on Friday instead. I want to give you a little more time to work on your next art piece. 45-minute periods are a little too short for us.

Have a restful evening. See you tomorrow! :)
