haha friday was killer. xD
1. pe was rollerblading! =D
2. had fun in phy quarrelling over coffee. haha.
3. olympics-crazy recess!
4. ct session was a string quartet performance! nice songs. =)
5. pw preps were fun. haha insane enlin koped a carton of chocolate milk (24 bottles) + 5 extra bottles. and liyi helped with cutting paper shreds again. thankew! haha 10 hours cip? see if teacher allow first.
6. pw mini-trial! xDD
haha yeah. after school waited for a while, then emelyne enlin liyi and i took 67 to choa chu kang. liyi dropped off halfway, the rest (3) of us took to cck to change to 187. crazy la, carrying all those things. after liyi got off, we had 3 school bags, 1 carton, 1 bag of shredded paper and milk bottles, 3 boxes for games, enlin's camera, and survey forms. between the 3 of us. >< the hour-plus-long trip was kinda bleh. haha. but fun anyways.
we reached woodlands about 6 plus. dropped our things off, then went to buy foodstuffs from woodlands civic centre ntuc. and xueqin reached when we were at ntuc! whoops. so she stayed at the church and prepared the rooms. then emelyne went to buy dinner, so enlin and i returned to church first. helped xueqin finish up packing, then emelyne came back and the kids all came so start. enlin took attendance, then emelyne did pre-survey with the kids. then xueqin did the presentation and i did keyboard-pressing and camera while emelyne and enlin went to next door to prepare for games.
after presentation, enlin divided the kids into 4 groups of 5, then shepherded them to the next room. emelyne briefed them on the game, then they played: 1 healthy food = 5 points, 1 unhealthy food = -5 points. one poor group ended up with 5 points. =( but had 4 kids out of 5 at younger than 8-9 years, so it was okay. although the other groups got at least 40 points. >< then when emelyne was counting score with the kids, some went hyper and started shouting "不健康", so emelyne minus-ed marks off those who shouted. xDD point system rocks. haha.
then was drawing. haha when emelyne told them it was drawing time, they literally screamed la. had them occupied for about 15-20 minutes while emelyne prepared the food. then the drawings were collected, and enlin taught them the banana dance and we all danced with them. =D haha. then enlin had them go out group by group to wash hands and get food from emelyne while xueqin entertained them and i helped emelyne for a short while. then went back into the room to play the apples-and-bananas video and the iloveegg animation. kids are at their best with hands on some food and eyes on a screen. xD
haha they even asked for the videos again and again. and when i told them that i would add marks if they learnt the words, they actually started singing out loud! haha im horrible. xD but at least they were actually having fun. when they finished their food, emelyne tallied the score (group 1: 45 | 2: 80 | 3: 10 | 4: 75) and the winning group got 1 packet of apple juice per kid. then they went back, and we packed up and went home.
haha fun day. learnt some lessons about kids, but heck. xD photos next time. lazy. haha.
i wonder whats next for pw other than i&r, wr and op. oh wells. i want another mini-trial! haha this one was successful (the kids liked our games and the healthy food. yeah!), so somehow improve on this one and make the whole thing better!
haha next time. now sleepy time. tomorrow got pesta sukan. >< i hope i last longer this time. jia you everyone! =)
bubbye.
