Worksheet: Name of Birds (part II)
Today, we continued with the worksheet that the children didn't complete from last Friday. Half of the class had done their colouring while half of the class had not completed colouring their birds.
Therefore, I divided the children into two big groups. One of the groups continued with the colouring of the birds while the other group cut out the picture of the birds and put them into a bowl.
For those who had done their cutting, they will get a worksheet from me and started to paste the pictures of the birds accordingly to its name written in the worksheet. Some of them could do it independently while some of them needed guidance.
Fortunately, all the children manage to complete the worksheet today and we shall move on to other animals by tomorrow.

Worksheet: Names of the Birds (part I)
I have prepared a worksheet for the children to do cut and paste. Firstly, the children needed to colour the pictures of the birds accordingly.
This time, I didn't want the children to colour whatever colour that they like. I wanted them to try their best to follow accordingly so that they could observe the different colour of each bird. Unfortunately, only a few of them could follow while most of them just colour whatever colour that they like.
The children only manage to complete the colouring session today, therefore, we shall carry on with this worksheet on next Monday.

Video Sharing & Names of Birds
Today, I played them a video about peacock opening it's beautiful feathers.
Video: A blue peacock opening his tail up close to the camera (HD)
From the video, the children also noticed the colour and the patterns on the peacocks' feathers. Max always tells me that it looks like eyes.
After that, I try to list down some names of birds that would appear in the bird park in Malaysia such as eagle, owl, peacock, ostrich, pelican, flamingo, penguin and hornbill. I have got all those pictures of these birds and I showed it to the children.
Then, I roughly drew them on the board and we read the names and the children also trying their best to remember the names of those birds.
After a few rounds of reading, I decided to give stickers as rewards for those who could recognise and read at least 3 birds from the list. For those who could read 5 names and above, they could even get to choose the sticker. Most of the children came out to take the challenge and somehow I noticed that some just sat there quietly. I do hope the children could take up the challenge willingly and not by forcefully.

Once the children got their palm traced, they could cut it out and pasted it onto the drawing paper that I gave them. After that, they will start to draw in those parts of an ostrich as well as the background.

Out of my surprise that most of them could get the answers pasted correctly and only a few of them got it wrong. Some even tried to assist others when theirs were done.

I take this opportunity to bring the children out with their lantern to the school compound. Even though it's daylight, yet, the children enjoyed lighting up their lanterns with the candles and walk around with it before we call it a day.

Introduction to Birds
After the children had decided the new thematic topic, I quickly get them to give me a name for it. I believe the children like the words "beautiful" a lot. That's the reason why they named their new theme as "Beautiful Wild Animals". We shall focus on wild animals that they usually see in the zoo. I do hope to get them to explore more about those wild animals if the time is allowed.
We started off with birds. This is an area that I hardly do with the children for my past few years of exploring animals. I think this is because the children were not that familiar with birds and usually they will mention about tiger, lions or even elephants rather than birds. However, this time, I would like to explore the birds with the children and see how far can we go.
The children gave their opinions about birds.
Teacher: How do you know it is a bird?
Gaby: Because bird can fly.
Khai Hann: Because it can build nest.
Gaby: Bird can sing. Tweet......tweet..
Max: Bird has feathers.
Teacher: How many legs does a bird have? (Some said 2, some said 3, some said 4 and some even said 10.) Ans: 2 legs.
I get the children to tell me the names of birds that they know.
Shan Lin: parrot, pigeon, crow
Max: peacock
Gaby: cock

However, none of them could sing like a whale. A Manatee came by and told him that he could find out his own song by trying to sing it out from his own voice. Finally, his group came back to look for him after hearing his call.
I brought in some blue paper and some white A4 paper for the children to do a whale origami. After they had folded a whale, they could paste it onto the white colour paper and decorated it with other sea creatures.
There were a few more children who couldn't get the origami done today, we shall continue with it tomorrow.

After that, I brought in 3 boxes of different toys into the class. I also divided the children into 3 big groups. The children needed to make use of the toys they were given to form the shape of a starfish. This is not just to train their visual ability yet also to get them to work as a team.
Most of them were not discussing yet arguing with each other and couldn't cooperate with their peers. After 10 minutes, none of the group could actually form the shape of a starfish with their toys. I took some other toys from their class and form a simple one on the floor.
Immediately, there's a group of them stopped arguing and started to get everyone working in forming the shape of the starfish with the toys. I'm quite proud of them for being able to stop arguing and quickly got themselves up to complete the task given.
The other two groups who saw the complete task of the first group, they also quickly brought themselves up and quickly form the shape of the starfish with their toys.
