Tongue twisters

Dear beloved children,

Some tongue twisters for you !

Here are some famous Tongue Twisters...

Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers.
Did Peter Piper pick a peck of pickled peppers?
If Peter Piper picked a peck of pickled peppers,
where's the peck of pickled peppers Peter Piper picked?

Red lorry, yellow lorry, red lorry, yellow lorry.

A big black bug bit a big black bear,
made the big black bear bleed blood.

The sixth sick sheik's sixth sheep's sick.

She sells sea shells by the sea shore.
The shells she sells are surely seashells.
So if she sells shells on the seashore,
I'm sure she sells seashore shells.


Betty Botter had some butter,
"But," she said, "this butter's bitter.
If I bake this bitter butter,
it would make my batter bitter.
But a bit of better butter--
that would make my batter better."
So she bought a bit of butter,
better than her bitter butter,
and she baked it in her batter,and the batter was not bitter.
So 'twas better Betty Botter
bought a bit of better butter.

Have fun!

Love,
Miss Lau

If Big can. . . I can.


Dear beloved children,


I hope you enjoyed the story telling session on Friday!


This is a charming tale of friendship and rivalry.

Do you remember Koala is able to squeeze into small places where Big cant squeeze in? But is he happy? No, he is not! He finds that he is all alone and there is no fun being alone. Doing things together with Big brings happiness!


I hope that you know that being alone without any friends is very torturing. There is no one to share your ups and downs. Therefore, do cherish and treasure everyone around you!


Thank you!


Lots of love,

Miss Lau

I want my dinner by Tony Ross



Dear beloved children,





Do you remember the book that I read to the class today? The title of the book is 'I want my dinner'. It is written by Tony Ross.





Brief summary of the story: The Little Princess needs to learn some manners but, several tantrums later, once she's mastered "please" and "thank you", she finds that not everyone else is so polite! She's certainly not going to give the Beastie back his dinner until he asks nicely.

"I want my dinner!"
"Say please, " said the Queen.


Thank you.

Love,
Miss Lau

Comparing Fractions with Like (Same) Denominators

Comparing Fractions with Like (Same) Denominators


A Fraction consists of two numbers separated by a line.


The top number is called the numerator.


The bottom number is called the denominator.


If the denominators of two fractions are the same, the fraction with the largest numerator is the larger fraction.


Lots of love,

Miss Lau


The picture belows shows 2 fractions. They they have the same denominators.

Fun Maths Lesson

Dear beloved children,


I hope that you have enjoyed yourself during the Maths lesson today. I hope that you master comparing fractions and able to recognise which is a bigger fraction and which is a smaller fraction!

Animal Language Song

Dear brainy children,

Here are the lyrics to the song we sang in class on Thursday.

You can find the song at http://www.kiddyhouse.com/Farm/
Just look for 'Animal Language Song'.

Animal Language
Words & Music by Duncan Wells


Yellow duck, yellow duck why do you quack?

And when you do, why do all the other ducks quack back?

All I want to know is what you're talking about.

This animal language I can't figure out.


Quack, quack, quack, means How do you do?

Quack, quack, Wonderful! How about you?

Quack, quack, quack, quack, Would you like to play?

And just one quack means, Have a nice day!

Quack is the only thing a duck can say.


Moo cow, moo cow why do you moo?

And when you do, why do all the other cows moo too?

All I want to know is what you're talking about.

This animal language I can't figure out.


Moo. moo, moo, means How do you do?

Moo, moo, Wonderful! How about you?

Moo, moo, moo, moo, Would you like to play?

And just one moo means, Have a nice day!

Moo is the only thing a cow can say.

Quack is the only thing a duck can say.


Woolly sheep, woolly sheep why do you baa?

And when you do, why do all the other sheep baa back?

All I want to know is what you're talking about.

This animal language I can't figure out.


Baa, baa, baa means How do you do?

Baa, baa, Wonderful! How about you?

Baa, baa, baa, baa, Would you like to play?

And just one baa means, Have a nice day!

Baa is the only thing a sheep can say.

Moo is the only thing a cow can say.

Quack is the only thing a duck can say.

That's all.

Have a happy Youth Day!

Lots of love,

Miss Lau
