Our volunteers at the Lions Befrienders Service Association Mei Ling Street Seniors Activity Centre on 31 May 2013!
As we expand the circle of interaction of children, the most significant influence after the family is the school and the other people they interact in their daily lives like teachers, doctors, barbers, drivers and maids.
This month, under the theme 'People Around Us', Prideens from Grade Pre-Nursery learnt about the people who help us in different ways. To build a deeper understanding of the concept, Prideens came dressed as doctors, nurses, teachers, postmen, tailors, traffic policemen and cobblers. Using hand puppets,teachers dramatized the character to give a better understanding of the duties performed by each community helper .Children were asked probing questions to develop observation and recitation skills and also develop understanding on the tools used by some of the community helpers.
Children not only learnt about the roles they play, but also develop a sense of gratitude for the work they do for us. To develop social skills of expressing gratitude, our Prideens, designed cards to thank their class didi’s for helping them everyday.
The fact that we live in a deep gravity well in a gas covered planet which goes around a nuclear fireball 90 million miles away and it still feels like another Tuesday proves the significance of perspective in our lives.
We believe that a right perspective can change our lives. TEDxGCEK, the youngest member of TED community plans to represent the same. TEDx speakers compel us to initiate, innovate and improvise the lives of people in ways that we never even knew existed.
Instead of searching for new ideas and inspiration one can simply look at things with different angles.TEDxGCEK aims to bring people from a different perspective to help change each others’ way of looking at the world.
