Reflection : International Friendship Day & Visit to the Organic Farm

This week is a busy week for all of us.
Yesterday, Monday (13/4), we had visited our Organic Farm. I am quite sure you could remember how big our Cucumber Plant was. Too bad, I did not have my camera along with me. Will try and take some photos during our next visit. Will update when it will be in due time.
I know some of you were involved in planting the chili plant. You had a chance to be a "farmer" when you tried to dig a hole. How was the feeling being a "farmer"?
Some of you managed to harvest the cucumber. The cucumbers were big and juicy right.

All of you were also involved in taking care of our booth for International Friendship Day. Our booth was for the country of Malta. You were in-charge of the language game that we had. Any interesting encounter you had? We also managed to visit the other booth today.

I would like to hear your comments on these 2 activities we had.

Life Cycle of Plant : Day 16

This is how the plant look like.

It seems to have a weak stem. I need to put a small stick so that the stem has a support.

Life Cycle of Plant : Day 7

I took the photos of the seedling twice in a day.
I realised there is a difference in its height.

Taken on Day 7 in the morning (10.30 am)

Taken on Day 7 at night (about 11.30om)

Notice the difference in height?
Wow! Within a span of 12 hours, there is a difference in its height.

My seedling is no longer a lazy seedling :)

Life Cycle of Plant : Day 2

The pictures below are the seeds on Day 2. Can you see the shoot coming out from the seed?

Plant will grow towards sunlight

I have one potted plant which I bought it sometime last year.

I placed it along my house corridor.
Look at the picture.

The pot is not placed in a slanted manner. It is "standing" upright. However, look at my plant. It is growing in a slanted way. On the left of the picture is where the direction of sunlight is entering the corridor.
What does this show?

A close-up picture of my plant.

Broad Bean Seed

I gave each of you one seed on Thursday.
Yesterday, Jin Hao brought the "fruit" which bore those seeds. For those of you who did not manage to see, look at the photos below.

Thank you Jin Hao. Hope you can take a photo of this tree so that the rest of 4J will be able to see how the adult plant looks like.

Videos : Sorting Game (3 States Of Matter)

You had a lesson on 3 states of Matter yesterday.
3 States of Matter are : Solid, Liquid, Gas.

Can you remember their properties?

Below is a short game to revise on this.
You will be shown different objects. Drag and place them according to the state they belong to.
It is a short revision game. It should not take you more than 10 minutes.
