Fish, fish, fish….in the blue sea

Book Sharing : A Black Book of Colours by Menena Cottin

This book was brought by Jun Qian from Pomegranate class. I borrowed his book to share it with our Starfruit’s children. This book is in Mandarin. So I read it in Mandarin and mentioned about some words in English.

This interesting book is showing the children of how the blind people can read, feel and touch the book which talks about colours. The Braille letters found in the book gives the children the ability to experience the world in a different way.  It’s pretty difficult for the children to imagine the difficulties of the blindness. I asked them to close their eyes, some of them refused or couldn’t follow the instruction. I guess, they suddenly realized, shutting their eyes out of a sudden might be quite scary and uncomfortable.

By sharing this book, we also shared about the important of caring for our eyes.

Paper Origami: Fish

I gave each child a small piece of rectangle paper to start off with. Today, I wanted to teach them about paper origami of a fish. I wanted the children to practice folding the paper and later on paste them on the piece of blue paper that they are to colour the next day.

However, the children still need to practice on their fine motor skill on folding papers. The fish art was not done completely. We shall continue with it tomorrow with the colouring part.
