As 2008 comes to an end...

Hi 4 Charity,

The year is coming to an end. Soon, you'll start your new year in a new class. But, before you move on to the exciting 2009, do take some time to reflect on 2008. What are some of the happy moments? What are some things you have done or said that you wish you never had? Who are the people who have made a difference in your life this year? More importantly, whose life have you touched?

Here's a video that someone shared with me and I'd like to share it with you. It helps me to think about who I really am and what I want in life. How about you?



Lyrics - "Reflections" taken from the movie Mulan (part of the song)

Look at me.
I will never pass for a perfect bride or a perfect daughter.
Can it be, I’m not meant to play this part?
Now I see, if I were truly to be myself,
I will break my family’s heart.

Who is that girl I see staring straight back at me?
Why is my reflection someone I don’t know?

Somehow I cannot hide,
Who I am, though I’ve tried.
When will my reflection show who I am, inside?
When will my reflection show who I am, inside?

You've watched Homerun earlier and I can see from your reactions during the show that it has made you both happy and sad. Below are some questions that I want you to discuss with your partner and post your answers as a response to this blog entry.

(1) How is friendship demonstrated in the movie?
(2) Who are the characters you like/dislike. Why?
(3) What are some things in life that you have taken for granted and what can you now do to better appreciate what you have?

I'm looking forward to hearing from you.

28 October 2008

Hi 4 Charity,

You have done your research in the library earlier so it’s time for you to share with me what you have found out ☺

You need to work with your partner in writing a short report on the topic you were researching on. If you need to look for more information, you can do Internet searches on www.google.com Your report should have the following points:
• Title of report (Topic)
• A short introduction on what the topic is
• Two or three paragraphs on what you have found out about the topic

Please type out the report as part of your email and send it to me.

After you are done with your report and still have some time left before dismissal, you can play the games or click on any of the weblinks on the class blog. You have to shut down your MacBook and start packing up at 1.10pm. Also, do remember to rearrange your tables and chairs for your exam tomorrow.

Have fun! See you in school on Wednesday.

International Peace Day

Hi 4 Charity,

I enjoyed the discussion we had on moral dilemmas. Life's decisions may not be easy and there are many times when we disgree with one another on issues that are close to our hearts. Though we may be different, we can and still need to respect one another's differences and decisions. Below are the website and video I showed you in class earlier.

Read, read, read!

Hi 4 Charity,

Your Oral Exam is on coming Wednesday and Thursday. Do practice your reading at home. Just pick up any newspaper article, storybook, textbook etc and "read away" :-)

Remember to take note of the following while reading:
(1) pronounce the end consonants such as "d", "t", "s" and "k"
(2) pause at commas and full-stops
(3) vary your tone i.e. read in such a manner that the person listening to your reading will not fall asleep

We'll continue with recording your reading and picture discussion next week. Have a good weekend!

Rainbow Connection

Hi 4 Charity,

Someone shared with me this song many years ago and I find it meaningful. Listen to the song and post a comment on the following:
(1) Do you think it's a sad or a happy song? Why?
(2) What do you think "Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
and rainbows have nothing to hide" mean?

If you need help in finding the meaning to the difficult words, you can make use of www.dictionary.com to help you.






Lyrics to "Rainbow Connection"

Why are there so many songs about rainbows
and what's on the other side?
Rainbows are visions, but only illusions,
and rainbows have nothing to hide.
So we've been told and some choose to believe it.
I know they're wrong, wait and see.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

Who said that every wish would be heard
and answered when wished on the morning star?
Somebody thought of that and someone believed it.
Look what it's done so far.
What's so amazing that keeps us star gazing
and what do we think we might see?
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.

All of us under its spell. We know that it's probably magic.

Have you been half asleep and have you heard voices?
I've heard them calling my name.
Is this the sweet sound that called the young sailors.
The voice might be one and the same.
I've heard it too many times to ignore it.
It's something that I'm supposed to be.
Someday we'll find it, the rainbow connection.
The lovers, the dreamers and me.
