What were the children up to during the June holidays?
In My First Skool, lessons still go on for our children even during the June holidays.
When lessons for the term are over, children continue with revision on previous taught lessons and spend most of their time working in the various learning centres.
One of the lessons that children enjoyed more was the lesson on "My Monster".
In this lesson, children recapped about the different parts of the body that they have already learnt and reflected on each of their functions. The most interesting part of the lesson was when they had the opportunity to create their own monster using play dough. They learnt that monsters were different from human beings as they could have more than two hands, two eyes, two legs and such. Let's take a look at what they have created! :P
Lu Young and his "scrambled monster" as he named it.
Wen Xin said her monster had four legs!
Angel's monster had four legs, six hands and even a pair of wings!
Xander said his monster was a messy one!
Yu Le wanted her monster to look just like a normal human being.
Princess said her monster had eyes flying everywhere!
Ethan said his monster had its heads chopped off! Ouch! That was scary, Ethan!
"My monster has so many eyes!" said Jia Xi.
Look at that big smile on Ya An's countenance! She was definitely proud of her monster!
Wow! Dion has created a beautiful monster!
Now, what were the children up to at the learning centres?
Ya An was at the Science Centre. She was observing her picture and was comparing herself with her peers.

| Yamone was drawing a picture of herself as she observed her facial features carefully from the photograph. |
 |
| Yan Xi was practicing writing the letters of the alphabet nicely and neatly, making sure he wrote them with the correct strokes. |
Dion was painting at the Art Centre. Yes, she was painting a beautiful rainbow.
Hao Zhe was expressing himself through creative painting!
Rexanne and Yu Le were having some peer learning session together. They were testing each other to name the different body parts that they have learnt and read the word cards as well.
Meanwhile, Wen Xin and Xander were enhancing their fine motor muscles by creating different letters of the alphabet using play dough. This activity was a popular one amongst the children.
Ya An went on to the Language Centre after finishing her task at the Science Centre. She was writing on the spelling of words like 'eye', 'nose' and 'face'.
Now, Fang Fei and Dion were playing together with the magnets. There were different kinds of magnets namely round magnets, horseshoe magnets and bar magnets. Fang Fei was testing if the bar magnet could attract the paper clip. What do you think?
Jia Xi was engaged in this game called "Matching picture to word".

| Aniq was observing the inside of his mouth using a torchlight and a mirror. |
After that, he tried drawing what he had observed. Good try, Aniq!
