Moving into our permanent classroom from Term 2 onwards

Hi pupils,

Thank you for helping to move all the books and files to our new classroom before the holiday begins. We will be at our new classroom from Term 2 onwards. I will be back in school on Fri during the holidays to arrange the books and files and put up some items. If you and your parents are free to come, let me know by putting a comment on this post. The time will be 10am on 21 Mar (Fri).

Thank you once again for keeping the Malay classroom clean and neat in Term 1. Every effort counts.

Have a restful holiday break!
Best Regards,
Mrs Tan

March Holiday on Knowledge Forum

Dear Pupils,

I will be pulling out some interesting notes from the diversity view into a new view "March Holiday Learning". I encourage you to continue with some of the discussions and build-on from your friend's notes.

Knowledge building is all about improving one another's ideas, asking good questions about things happening around you and seeking to find new information from all types of sources. Whether you're at home or overseas, I encourage you to be aware of the diversity around you. There are many things that caught me by surprise this week. I'm sharing two observation here.

1) As I walked around in my neighbourhood, I saw patches of dried grasses. The trees and plants has more fallen leaves than usual and the colour of the leaves are fading away. This reminds me of what we're learning in class about living things and what keeps them alive.

2) The crickets left in the small aquarium have undergone a lot of changes. This week, it kept making the crciket's sound. Currently, there are only 3 crickets left and they are huge. I went to do a bit of research and learnt how to identify the male and female crickets. So, I have 1 male and 2 female crickets at the moment. If they are still alive, I'll bring them back when school reopens. The next question I ask is whether they will start to breed.... Hmm....

March Holiday Homework - Maths & Science

Maths
- To complete Revision 1 (teared out from Maths WB 3A part 1)

Science
- To conduct the bread mould experiment and record observations for 5 days on Activity 6.
- Choose either one of the three aims to carry out the experiment.
   1) To find out if moist bread or toasted bread would affect how bread mould would grow.
  • Same type of bread (one with water sprinkled, one toasted till hard)         
   2) To find out if the presence of water/moisture affect how bread mould would grow.
  • Same type of bread (one with water sprinkled, one without water spinkled)
   3) To find out if different types of bread affect the growth of mould on the bread.
  • Different types of bread 
  • Both with water spinkled

- CAUTION: Do not pour too much water on the bread. Sufficient water will do. Moulds need warmth and water to grow.
- Change Question 3 accordingly if the aim of your experiment is different. E.g. Why doesn't the Multigrain bread look the same as the white bread?
