K2 | Tell Me a Story
K2
We’re so proud of all the hard work and enthusiasm the students have shown during our online Zoom lessons and while learning at home. It’s a difficult and challenging time for everyone, but the children have adapted so well and continue to impress us with all their work.
我們為學生在網課和在家學習表現出的努力和熱情感到非常自豪。對於每個人來說，這都是一個艱難而充滿挑戰的時期，但是孩子們已經適應得很好，他們的表現給我們留下了深刻的印象。
Our topic of study for this month was Tell Me a Story, and each week we explored a different book. We did this through various mediums, including music and movement, artworks, puppet shows, and many more!
本月的學習主題是「講一個故事」，每個星期我們都會和孩子一起讀一本有趣的故事繪本。通過音樂律動，藝術創作和木偶戲等等我們展開了愉快的學習歷程！
Our zoom lessons and pre-recorded videos have also focused on developing the student’s numeracy, literacy, and phonics skills. In phonics, we have been working on pencil control, learning the phonetic sounds of the alphabet, expanding our vocabulary, and learning how to write the upper and lower case letters.
我們的網上課程和教學視頻集中在培養孩子的專注力、計算能力，識字能力和語音練習。在語音方面，我們通過讓孩子通過控筆，學習字母的語音，擴大詞彙量以及學習如何寫大寫和小寫字母。
In numeracy, we’ve been reviewing numbers 1 – 20. We’ve been practising counting and identifying the numbers independently and writing them accurately. The students were asked to count how many items there are and were able to answer in full sentences using either ‘is’ or ‘are’.
在計算方面，我們學習了1 –20。通過練習1-20的數數和數量，我鼓勵孩子們準確地寫出以上數字。我們通過讓孩子數出不同的數量，懂得在句式中使用單數或者複數。
Thank you again for your continued support and for sending us all the wonderful pictures and videos of the children learning from home during September. We look forward to continuing the learning on campus from October onwards!
再次感謝家長們一直以來對我們學校的支持，孩子們9月份在家裏學習的所有精彩照片和錄像都是你們支持學校最有力的證明。期待和孩子們10月的相聚！

During the theme Tell Me a Story, K2 students have explored several stories; Goldilocks and the Three Bears, Elmer the Elephant, The Gruffalo, and The Three Little Pigs.
低班的小朋友在「講一個故事」的主題單元中拉開了新學年的帷幕。我們在通過《金髮姑娘和三隻熊》、《大象艾瑪》、《古飛樂》、《三隻小豬》這些經典的故事帶孩子們進入了童話的世界。
Teachers narrated the story of Goldilocks and the Three Bears in the form of a puppet show and the students learnt vocabulary such as girl, three bears, chair, and bed. They further strengthened their understanding of the story content through the nursery rhyme Three Bears. They then listened to the story Elmer the Elephant and learnt different colours as well as the importance of accepting ourselves. After that, students learnt more vocabulary such as fox, snake, and owl in the story The Gruffalo and understood the principle of using wisdom to resolve problems. Lastly, through the story The Three Little Pigs the children learnt new vocabulary and also learnt to be practical.
老師們通過布偶戲的形式，把《金髮姑娘和三隻熊》的故事娓娓道來，孩子們認識了「姑娘」、「三隻熊」、「粥」、「椅子」、「床」「大」、「中」、「小」等詞彙，並通過兒歌《三隻熊》進一步鞏固了故事的內容；在《大象艾瑪》的故事中，老師帶孩子們來到了「森林」一起認識這隻特別的花格子大象，通過故事，學習了不同顏色之餘，也學會了接納自己的重要性；在《古飛樂》這個故事中，我們認識了聰明機智的小老鼠阿斗和可怕的大怪獸古飛樂，並認識了「狐狸」、「大蟒蛇」、「貓頭鷹」等詞彙，並懂得了，運用智慧可以打敗敵人的道理；在《三隻小豬》的故事中，我們學習了「稻草房」、「木頭房」、「石頭房」、「豬大哥」、「豬二哥」、「豬小弟」、「大野狼」等詞彙，並懂得了腳踏實地的重要性。
It is a challenge for the children to progress to K2 as it requires them to master pencil control skills and learn more complex words and sentences. We appreciate the students’ positive learning attitude and thank parents for supporting and encouraging their children’s learning.
從幼兒班進入低班，對孩子們來說是一個挑戰，看到孩子們快樂地開始學習握筆書寫中文子，也開始學習更加複雜的詞語和句子，老師特別欣賞孩子們積極投入的學習態度，也感謝家長對孩子們學習的支持，期待孩子們回到校園一起學習一起遊戲！
