2018 Term 2 Week 8
Dear Parents
By the Health Promotion board (HPB)
It was a fun time learning the importance of keeping our teeth clean and healthy for the Joy class.
They also were taught the correct technique for brushing their teeth.
We need strong healthy teeth to chew the right food to grow, to speak clearly and look good when we smile!
Let’s get our children into the habit of brushing their teeth and keeping their teeth cavity-free!

The children were given a tag with the starting letter of their name with their photo printed on the other side.

This craft required the children to peel off the tape at the back of the square foam
and stick them onto the given letter.
And these involved using their fine motor and eye coordination skills to complete the task.

Mass Activity
Divided into 4 teams, the children run through a modified agility hoop chain
(ensuring that they step into every hoop),
pick up a ball and throw it over the folded table!
301 Upper Paya Lebar Road S(534934) Tel:6287 1209 Fax:6287 7980 Page 11
Increasing the difficulty of the drill, the children attempt a single leg hoop!

A warm up
with a little run to the teacher at the end,
give a hi-5 on one hand,
run around,
give the other hand a hi-5,
and run back to the starting point.
301 Upper Paya Lebar Road S(534934) Tel:6287 1209 Fax:6287 7980 Page 13
Many instructions were given to the Love children…
1. Run to the end and take a bean bag
2. Run back and place the bean bag at the starting point
3. Run across to get the second bean bag
4. Pick up both bean bags and place them back at the end point
301 Upper Paya Lebar Road S(534934) Tel:6287 1209 Fax:6287 7980 Page 14
The children did really well and were able to follow the instructions! (some with a little more prompting)
Joy & Peace
To test and further develop the children’s ball manipulation skills,
the distance at which they throw and receive the ball was further increased.
A modified agility ladder was placed in between the 2 points.
After passing the ball, the child will then perform some agility drills to the other side.
The agility drills include:
running through the hoops;
hopping, jumping,
jumping alternate hoops using (both feet in the first hoop, then outside the second hoop)
301 Upper Paya Lebar Road S(534934) Tel:6287 1209 Fax:6287 7980 Page 15
They also learn to gauge the distance to estimate the strength that they need to pass the ball
and to receive the ball well.

Aesthetics (Cooking)
Just look at them – especially the little ones….
One hand holding the knife and the other holding firm the slice of apple to be cut ….
(ahem ! sometimes they dun hold their knife too correctly or cut to the correct number of pieces required,
But we understand … some of them are not even three years old as yet …. )
We learned many things:
✓ Fruit kebabs are pieces of cut fruits skewered on a stick
✓ To skewer means to put the pieces of fruit through the
stick; holding the pieces together
✓ The knife has two parts – the handle and the blade and we
hold it by the handle and the blade is for cutting
✓ We can eat our fruit kebabs with different sauces –
chocolate sauce, pancake sauces … yums !!!!
301 Upper Paya Lebar Road S(534934) Tel:6287 1209 Fax:6287 7980 Page 17
Nimble fingers at work, patiently skewering the pieces of cut apple and grapes
We always love to observe
the happy faces when they
have accomplished their
tasks and to see them
being very pleased with
their work.

The children circled round the ‘grizzly bear(s)’ while singing the song:
“Grizzly bear, oh grizzly bear,
Is sleeping in the cave.
Please be quiet, very very quiet.
If you wake him, if you shake him,
He gets very mad!”

The moment the grizzly bear(s) wakes up, they will run to safety.
