My Amazing Body
Look At What My Body Can Do!
It is important for children to know and appreciate their body because no one child is alike. Knowing that they are special helps them to have a good self-esteem and self-confidence. Besides that, this encourages the children to care and protect their body in terms of hygiene, health, and safety.
Learning Process
Various creative academic activities are carried out to facilitate this learning. The children also teach themselves by learning from others through imitation, pretend play, and more. Sometimes, impromptu teaching happens when we detect readiness in a child.
Reflection
Through this adventure, the children:
a. Learn to have confidence in themselves.
b. Discover what they can do with their body.
c. Are courageous to face new challenges.
d. Believe they are special/one in a million.
e. Will take good care of themselves and others.

Occupation Box
A Box Full Of Surprise!
Occupation means a person’s work or business, especially as a means of earning a living. The occupation box however, is a purposeful project innovated by the children. It is packed with plenty of items which link to various occupations. The children’s learning and understanding are reinforced through these items. It is definitely an eye-opener for them.
Learning Process
Throughout the “occupation” theme, we watched many videos of the different community heroes in action, went for field trips and even had a few of them come into the centre. We brainstormed and agreed on the crafts we would like to work on and produced assortments of crafts related to our community heroes. Slowly but surely, we added a craft into our box week after week until it is full.
Reflection
Through this project, the children learn:
a. To appreciate their community heroes.
b. About the blue-collar workers and the white-collar workers.
