Our 1st IT Lesson

Hi gracious children!


We just had our first IT lesson yesterday. We learnt about the different parts of the computer, namely the monitor, keyboard, Central Processing Unit (CPU) and mouse. The parts are described briefly below:
  • Monitor - This receives information from the CPU and displays images on the screen like a television.

  • keyboard - This contains a set of keys which we use to enter (text or data) into a computer.

  • Central Processing Unit (CPU) - This works like the brain of the computer to carry out instructions and store information.

  • Mouse - When rolled along a flat suface, it helps you to move the cursor on the computer screen. There are left- and right-click buttons.

The Start of the Fasting Month


Good evening gracious children!

Tomorrow marks the start of the fasting month for the Muslim community in Singapore. Fasting is a compulsory religious action that Muslims have to go through for a month.

This is to remind us of the hardships and suffering of other people who are less fortunate than us. Muslims will abstain (stay away) from food and drinks from dawn (when the sun rises) till dusk (when the sun sets). Muslims also have to be careful with what they say and to stay away from gossips and lies. The month when Muslims fast is called Ramadhan and during this month, we have to cleanse and purify ourselves.

If you want to know more about the dos and don'ts during the fasting month, click on this website... www.ncbis.org/Parents'%20Group/Ramadan%20Slides.ppt

If you have any questions regarding this month, do e-mail me at the LEAD account or key it in the chatbox at the side of our blog here.

Lots of love,
Mr Fadzeel

New Plants for Our Aquarium


Good day my gracious children!


I just got back from school and I wanted to share with you what happened in class today. Today was the 2nd day of the PSLE Oral Exams and our class was used as one of the examination rooms.


I went ot our classroom and looked and fed our guppies and guess what I discovered? I saw 2 new baby guppies swimming around. I was so happy that I told Ms Diana Goh (who provided the fishes) to have a look at the aquarium. She advised me to put in water plants so that the dangling roots can provide the baby guppies with a place to hide from the bigger guppies. This is because the bigger guppies may eat the baby guppies.


So don't be alarmed or shocked when you see the aquarium on Monday with the new plants! Enjoy the rest of your weekend!


P/S: I may not be able to update for the 2 days because I would be going to Malacca with my family. :( See you soon.



Lots of love,

Mr Fadzeel

Hi gracious children from P2 Graciousness!

It's been a long time since I last updated our class blog. I'm very sorry but I've been very busy with getting our class ready for lessons, like buying the fishes and looking for terrapins and also purchasing resources for all of us to us.

I hope that all of you have enjoyed the last Big Book that we went through. Do you remember the title of our last Big Book? (Hint: It has something to do about pets!)


Over the next two days, I won't be seeing you in school. You have been assigned worksheets and e-learning tasks on the LEAD portal (http://www.lead.com.sg/). I hope that you will do your work deligently and also more importantly, is to do the work on your own. Try your best, we will go through the work on Monday.

I've noticed that some of you are still forgetting to bring things to school. For example, yesterday's art lesson. Some of you did not bring your art materials. It wouldn't be fair to yourself because you will need to share with your friends and you will have to wait for your friends to finish using the art materials first. This will then make you finish later then your friends.

By having your own resources like
  • pencils
  • green pen
  • ruler
  • eraser
  • whiteboard marker
  • pupil's companion
  • thermometer
  • sharpener
  • drawing block
  • crayons

we can have a more exciting and fun day in school. We wouldn't need to borrow from our friends and we can do our work more quickly.

Next week we'll be having our class tests. What I want you to do is to relax and don't be nervous. When we get tensed and nervous, we will be unable to think properly and we are unable to answer the test questions. Here's a video to help you relax for a while. Have fun!

See you on Monday!

Lots of love,
