Singapore Nursery and Preschool has been working progressively towards the development of social and emotional skills in a reiterative process. Teachers need to carefully plan for the acquisition of these skills through children’s everyday experiences and play in the pre-school setting and make use of the teachable moments that occur in these daily experiences to teach children to regulate and manage their feelings, thoughts and behaviours.

We used our Music lesson to prepare for Kalavati’s birthday celebration on Friday. This worked well for Nursery kids as they witness the older kids preforming. We practiced a duet song, a dance presentation, and a birthday song that was accompanied by ukulele that was played by one of our students. A simple presentation makes a happy celebration. It was a beautiful theme for that day for her to remember. Parents of Kalavati also attended the birthday. The kids were treated to some special food to celebrate. The school sends Kalavati birthday wishes and many more birthdays to celebrate.

Math –Development of numeracy concepts and skills involves helping children know and use the concepts and skills in ways that relationships and connections are formed and then apply them meaningfully in their daily experiences.
