. . . . . . . From School to Home
2017 Term 2 Week 4
Dear Parents
The children look forward to this every day. They simply love the opportunity
to show and speak about their favourite toy that they have brought to school.
Everyone is encouraged to participate in this, even our Love 1 children.
Our little ones attempting to talk about their special item!
The Show-N-Tell activity is an integral part of our curriculum and is conducted in both English and Mandarin.
Through this activity, our children will build their confidence in public speaking and
improve their oral communication skills.
Their friends will learn social skills as they sit quietly to listen and wait for their turn to speak
if they want to ask questions.
And all these are accomplished in a fun environment.
The Love children are encouraged to bring their toy every day.
For the Joy & Peace, they have a Show-N-Tell roster chart and they bring their toy once a week.
Through each child’s Show-N-Tell session, we can catch a glimpse of their favourite toys or hobbies!

Taking turns to be both motorcyclist and pillion passenger.
CAR (2 front, 2 back) Learning to put a heel forward while leaning backwards to imitate a sudden break situation.
AEROPLANE (6-7 in a line) Preparing for takeoff! Arms up in the air, heads up, and backs arched!
Swaying left and right with arms stretched out,
while cruising along in the air…

and lastly, the MRT (whole school)
Keeping up with each other’s pace,
trying hard not to cause disruption to the rapid transit even when making a turn.
Love 1 & 2
This game tested the Love children’s ability to sort according to colours.
Ready, Coloured sticks were strewn at the centre, and boxes were placed at 4 corners.
Each box has been colour coded.

set,
The aim was to finish sorting all the sticks to the corresponding boxes as quickly as possible.
RULE: They could only grab ONE stick each time.
GO!!!
Making a dash to the centre!!!!
301 Upper Paya Lebar Road S(534934) Tel:6287 1209 Fax:6287 7980 Page 11
Going round to the different boxes, making sure they were dropping the sticks into the
correct coloured sticks.
The Love children did an absolutely fantastic job!
The sticks were all properly sorted within the next few minutes!
