Term 2 Week 6 Reflections

Hi Everyone,

The Singapore Kindness Movement has designated April as the month of kindness. Well, we are coming to the end of April. What acts of kindness have you done? For this week, I would like you to reflect on 'kindness'. To get some ideas, you might want to visit the website of the Singapore Kindness Movement at :http://kindness.sg/

Here are some questions to help you get your journal writing going:

1. Is it important for people to be kind? Why?

2. How can people show their kindness?

3. Could you describe an act of kindness which you have done?

4. How did you feel after doing that act of kindness?

5. What other act/s of kindness would you like to do either in school, at home or in the community?

I look forward to your entries!

Term 2 Week 5 Reflection

Dear 3.1 pupils,

Do you know that 22nd April is Earth Day? So what is Earth Day? If you want to know more, go to these links
http://www.ecokids.ca/pub/eco_info/topics/environmental/earthday/index.cfm
and http://holidays.kaboose.com/earth-day/

Read as much as you can about what people in other parts of the world do on that day. Then reflect on what Earth Day means to you.

Here are some questions to guide you:

1. Is Earth Day important to you? Why?
2. What do you understand by the phrase "save the Earth"?
3. Why do you think it is important to recycle, reuse and reduce?
4. What can you do to save the Earth?


Looking forward to your entries,

Mdm Kaur

Hi everyone!

We went on our Social Studies Learning Journey to the goat farm, aeroponics farm and the fish farm. I'm sure all of you had a great time there! I would like you to tell me the following :

1. What did you see / learn throughout the Learning Journey?

2. What was the best thing about the Learning Journey?

3. What could have been done differently to make the Learning Journey even better?

I am looking forward to your entries.

Term 2 Week 4 Reflections

Hi Everyone,

For this year, the International Friendship Day focussed on friendship within ASEAN. Making friends among the countries of ASEAN is important as they are our closest neighbours. For this week, we will reflect on friendship among the people of ASEAN. To help you with your journal writing, I have listed some questions below:

1. Why do we celebrate International Friendship Day?

2. What does ASEAN stand for?

3. Do you know a lot about ASEAN? Try this game at this website:http://www.ifd2009.com.sg/What is your knowledge about ASEAN?

4. Do you like the activities organised by the school on International Friendship Day? Why or why not?

5. Do you have any friend/s in the ASEAN countries? Tell us how you get to know him/her.


I hope to read your reflection soon.
