Spelling for K1

Y is having English spelling in K1 since term 2. Although I really dislike to ask my kid to memorize words on how they are spelled, but still have to cooperate with school for the curriculum that they set.

To reduce the stress of learning the words, I make those words into puzzles. I hope my kid can learn through play, and not by force memorizing the words.

Earth Day Sensory Tub


22 April is Earth day, I prepared this Earth day sensory tub for my kids. I spent quite a lot of time making those lucky stars and paper beads from unused papers.

Materials used are as below:
  • Lucky stars (made from advertisement pamphlets, magazines, etc)
  • Paper beads (made from used paper, advertisement pamphlets, magazines, etc)
  • Used fruit juice bottles
  • Vitagen bottles
  • Ice cream cup from Mcdonald
  • Used plastic spoons
  • Bottle caps
  • Used glass jars (not in the picture)

Kids love this, they do pouring, scooping, counting, sorting and other activities with sensory tub. They also learn to screw and unscrew the bottle cap.
