Hello everyone,
This morning, the children continued to learn ordinal numbers. They are beginning to understand that an ordinal number is used to identify the position of people or objects in relation to others. The children identified the ordinal number of their position whilst making a line and completed a worksheet, identifying the positions of cars in a race.
In phonics, the children reviewed the letter Yy. They identified vocabulary containing the letter and used the letter’s sound to blend this week’s CVC words (yak, yell, yet, yes).
In PE class, the children began a basketball themed unit. They practiced squatting, jumping, dribbling and rolling the ball. These drills develop balance, body control, spatial awareness and ball-handling skills.
In Chinese class, the children discussed which ocean animals are the most dangerous, what their special abilities are, how they hunt and how they protect themselves.
Additionally, the children began to make paper mashe ocean creatures.
Please fin this week’s optional homework in the children’s school bags.
今天的中文课上，我们认识了几种危险的海洋生物。鸡心螺虽然长得漂亮，但体内藏着毒液，能用毒针像蛇一样捕食小鱼；海蛇毒性极强，却性情温和，不会主动攻击人；栉水母没有毒，但会分泌强力粘液把猎物牢牢黏住；火珊瑚表面布满了毒刺，碰了皮肤会像被烧伤一样疼。孩子们还通过游戏扮演水母和小鱼，在模拟捕食的过程中，亲身体会到水母粘液陷阱的厉害。孩子们在玩中了解到这些生活在大海里的动物看上去很美丽，却有一定的危险性，去海边玩的时候一定要注意，不要随便触碰这些动物哦。
