School life
|
To encourage
attention to thoughts and feelings. Experimentation with words.
A lifetime's memory! |
Many kids
started kindergarten as the first level of formal schooling this
year.
In that sense it was a special year. How was it special? How was
the experience now that the school year is ending? What did you
like in school and what do you wish is different? How do you feel
about going to school? What's the upside? Any downside? ......Parents/caregivers, please assist your child to
come up with this sketch. It'll make interesting reading to see
perspectives of kids from different geographical locations! |

Differences
make life richer |
To encourage
children to appreciate the positives of different environments,
possessions, rituals, thoughts, lifestyles etc. Maybe they would
be prompted to take action where feasible to make improvements! |
If everyone
were the same it would spell a catastrophe - imagine all animals
eating the same food, we all looking the same etc. While we do
wish many times that we had the same things as our friends or
did the same as them, maybe differences make our perspectives
broader. Parents/Caregivers please encourage kids to appreciate
diversity and the reason behind it. You could provide pointers
for them to direct their thoughts. (eg. school settings,
education system, lifestyle, transportation, food habits etc) |
