The Blink-Off

Dear 3/4 class,
We are almost through the week since term 3 started. Thank you for being cooperative in this tough time of temperature taking. Illnesses spread like wildfire and especially if it mutates, the consequences can be really bad. You did an excellent job of being socially responsible and I'm so proud of you. Those who were unwell, you took a leave of absence, and that was being responsible.

We also welcome Elisha, who is our new classmate. Make him feel welcome in class, just as Samuel and Aaron are doing. :)

Well, in this week, we learnt about the Blink-Off during English lessons. Did you enjoy the story? I did! Did you get a chance to play blink-off with your friends? Who won in the end?

Maybe you would like to post your comments regarding this game here?
Share with us who you challenged. Is it your classmate? father? mother? siblings? pet fish? hamster? :)
Tell us who won and how you felt about the game.
Do you think you qualify to be a blink master?
I'd love to hear from you!

Final reminder

Dear 3/4 class,
Please be reminded to bring the yellow coloured travel declaration form and your personal thermometer on Monday. Come straight up to the classroom as flag raising will be held in class.
Till then, take care!

Trip to Sentosa

Hello 3/4,

How is your holidays so far? I'm sure those of you who have shared about your holiday experiences would have enjoyed them so far. As for those of you who stayed home this holidays, it would be a fabulous time of rest for you.

This holidays, I managed to get some rest and relaxation at Rasa Sentosa Resort, which is at Sentosa island itself. It's my first time staying there. A nice place, and there were a lot of families having a great time there swimming, playing at the arcade etc.

Below are some pictures I'd like to share with you. =)

The scenic view of the resort...

Finally found this brownie to eat for dinner, because most food outlets were closed by 7pm.

Spotted this creature when we went to the butterfly park and insect kingdom. Is it an iguana? It was really big, and anytime it was ready to jump at us. If you want to find out more about butterflies, birds and reptiles, the butterfly park is a good place to visit. =)

For the June Holidays

Dear 3/4,
It was a good end to the term, and I hope you enjoyed the programmes and activities set out for you. The holidays are drawing near (in fact, that's tomorrow!), and this post is a reminder of the homework for June:

1) One Book review to be posted on this blog (previous post) with comments and your recommendations.

2) English composition

3) English paper 1 and 2 exam paper

4) Mathematics exam practice paper 1

5) 1 journal entry on this blog


Please also remember to complete your Young Scientist activity cards and submit them to me, together with $2.50 for the Young Scientist badge and certificate on the first day of term 3.

Trust that you will have a fulfilling holiday. Try not to rush through the holiday homework. If possible, try spreading it out through the holidays. Do 1-2 assignments every week, then you will find that there's time for other activities and play.

Oh yes, take time to play too because some of us have been studying very very hard. It's time to take a break and enjoy what is around. Take time to admire the scenery outside your house. Take time to spend with your doodling and soft toys. Take time to spend over lunch and dinner with your family. Take time to spend with your hobbies.

Lastly, take care and we'll meet in term 3. =)

After exam

Dear 3/4,
Now that it is after the exams, I'm sure you have more time to spend with your hobbies and reading. Do remember, for those pupils who have not been bringing their story books, to bring them to school every single day. Reading is so important, it teaches us more than just the language. Now that it is 2 weeks before the school holidays, do try to finish up your reading record by reading more books.

Please post your interesting book reviews on this post so that you could recommend your friends to read those books. I will open this thread till after the holidays. :)
