The children in K1 and K2 of our kindergarten were excited to embark on our 2022 SSDB journey. Prior to our launching day, the children were exposed and introduced to various topic of interest. We decided to select a theme where the children will be able to learn and explore meaningfully. The children then were introduced to the theme: Our Family, Our Community: Supporting Lower-Income Families.
Teachers of respective classes started to engage the children through active classroom discussion about the causes of families who need more financial support and the effects.
The children actively learnt on how they can identify people with needs and how they can help to make them feel better through their contribution. Teachers explained some of the government services and resources put into place to support people in need. The children showed interest in helping after watching some short films and documentaries on how they can reach out to them.
Parents and their children created creative and heart-warming cards to be handed to families in need. We hope our K1 and K2 children will enjoy their 2022 SSDB journey !
