Time

Hi children,

Last week, you have learnt how to read and tell the time using "o'clock" and "half past". This is the link to interactive clock http://www.time-for-time.com/swf/myclox.swf . You can manipulate the hour and the minute hand to practice the time in terms of "hour and half past". Feel free to approach me if you have any doubts.

You can also visit this link http://www.primarygames.com/time/start.htm to try out the interactive game on time.

Have fun.

Selamat Hari Raya

Tomorrow will be Hari Raya where Muslim boys and girls together with their parents will visit their relatives and friends and it is also a time for them to gather. Non-muslim boys and girls, you may want to send your wishes and blessings by leaving a comment for your friend(s).

Wish all our Muslim boys, girls and their parents
"Selamat Hari Raya!!"

Love,
Mrs Tang
