Term 1 Summary

Term 1 is over, and so many things have yet to be done. Still, we should remember that there has been loads that we have accomplished as a class! It has been wonderful seeing the progress of my pupils, from those hesitant readers who have gained confidence, to those who have really begun to settle down and shown their talents.

The following post will detail our class's accomplishments and academic progress for term 1.


Accomplishments

Classroom Cleanliness Award, Term 1
We have the cleanest in the whole P1 level! Those Recess Duties really paid off!

MRL Bookmark Design Competition
Natalie Yeh is one of the winners of the bookmark design competition - well done!

Best Behaved Bunch
The winner, with 88 stars, is Horsea Group consisting of Valerie Yap, Then Chin Kiat, Daniel Tan, Hettys Huda, Chan Zhou Han and Naveen! Second place goes to Bellossom with 85 stars (Joshua Oh, Anna Lee, Luigi Obias, Ryan Kok and Shino Teo).

We have also begun to make our class our own, with new Corners added to allow the pupils to develop in a holistic way. Here are some photos of our class.


Academic Progress

English
Pupils have completed 7 units and are in the process of completing their 8th. Files will be returned on the first week of term 2 for your signature and perusal.

Math
Pupils have completed Numbers 1 to 10, Number Bonds, Addition of Numbers from 1 to 10, Subtraction of Numbers 1 to 10, Shapes, Patterns and Ordinal Numbers. Pupils have also finished Review 3 in their workbooks (holiday homework). Books will be marked and also returned on the second week of term 2 for your signature and perusal.


That's all for now. All in all, it's been a good first term, even if the last week was a little stressful. I love the kids in this class and I hope they'll remember me, years down the road (probably as the teacher with the mad thing for fish tanks and the one who keeps telling 'When Miss Kristen Was A Little Girl' stories). Hopefully, we'll have many more good times for Term 2!
