It was our P6s turn to recap all the previous topics, which we were glad to, as they had somewhat forgotten the liquid in the thermometer, how an impurity is able to affect the melting point and the boiling point of water. We added on a part where we showed the evaporation of “salt” water,… Continue reading P6 Science / 29 May 2019 Wednesday / Heat & Temp, Paper Lungs

P5 Science / 29 May 2019 / Heat & Temperature
The whole week was getting our students to observe how ice gained and lost heat, the changes to the melting point/boiling point when salt was added, and how the boiling point was changed when an impurity was added. Not forgetting how to read the thermometer without parallax error. LIKE: https://www.facebook.com/sowingseedz/
P5 Science / 28 May 2019 Tuesday / Heat & Temperature
Teaching our students how to measure temperatures off a thermometer and how to prevent parallax error is important. With this, we took a memory lane down to P4 topic, Heat & Temperature. Our main character is our humble salt. We want to prove that salt is an impurity and is able to change the melting/freezing… Continue reading P5 Science / 28 May 2019 Tuesday / Heat & Temperature
P6 Science / 24 May 2019 Fri / Lungs, Food Web
It is pretty amusing to have a class of different gender. Last year, we also had 2 P6 classes, one for the ladies, the other for the gents. For the lesson, we had 2 activities lined up for our boys, and expected, they were really boisterous, in a positive manner. We got them to blow… Continue reading P6 Science / 24 May 2019 Fri / Lungs, Food Web
P6 Science / 22 May 2019 Wed / Light
We owed our girls this Sun Catcher experiment before the exam skills and drills. It was long overdue and the girls cheered when we pulled out the materials needed for the experiment. Life as a student is really stressful, and a much needed break from the exams, although briefly, can be a respite for them.… Continue reading P6 Science / 22 May 2019 Wed / Light
P3/4 Science / 24 May 2019 Wednesday / Insects, States of Matter
Our P3/4 Science class doing an activity on insects, under Diversity. It was a form of recap for them and for us to gauge if they had recalled the characteristics of insects. We love their furry interpretations of pasting colourful pipe cleaners onto the insect templates and their mini comic sketches under CAP. We also… Continue reading P3/4 Science / 24 May 2019 Wednesday / Insects, States of Matter
P5 Science / 21 May Tues 2019 / Insects
It is good to recap and revisit previous topics. Through simple hands on activities, we are able to gauge how well a student is able to grasp what he/she has learnt previously. We love the interpretation of Z, who created a mini habitat with an ant, a grasshopper and a a worm (although this is… Continue reading P5 Science / 21 May Tues 2019 / Insects
June Programme 2019
Dear parents The much awaited June days are here! We know that holiday periods are always erratic, with students going for extra lessons, CCAs and even overseas! We totally understand the need to have a break, and we encourage our students to do so, even for ourselves! Hence, we decide to split the holidays into… Continue reading June Programme 2019
P4 Science / 28 March 2019 Thursday / Magnets & Life Cycles
Primary schools now have the autonomy to pick and choose the given Science topics for Upper Block and Lower Block now. Magnets and Life Cycles are usually taught in P3 but it seems the game has changed. Our P4s are learning the above mentioned currently, and we had to adapt to their learning needs. As… Continue reading P4 Science / 28 March 2019 Thursday / Magnets & Life Cycles
