Today is the 1st day of Darrell’s playgroup at Edufarm. Hm, I would say he has done a good job though initially he was quite ‘sticky’ to me.
There are 9 small children in the same with Teacher Ann and one assistant. 3 of them were newly joined and the rest were the ‘kor-kors’.
I accompanied him into the class for the 1st hour and after which, I sneaked out of the door when everyone is preparing for some colouring.
While waiting for him outside the door, whenever there are cries coming out of the classroom, I would paranoid and wondered if it is my boy who is crying for me. But surprisingly, he didn’t even noticed my absence though. After the class, Teacher Ann feedback that he even comfort his fellow friend who is crying.
This playgroup is indeed a simple and causal one as comparing to the enrichment class we attended at GUG. Obviously the classroom ambiance varies a lot. The type of material used and the quality of the teaching differs too. Now, I finally know the value of money for these classes.
It is a 2-hours playgroup which these little ones get together and interact.
Here is a rough itinerary for the playgroup:
- warm up, playing with toys
- singing and phonics
- colouring, art & craft
- water break
- washing up and packing of bag
- lined up to pick up their shoes and bag
- end of class
Hopefully, Darrell can learn to be more independent in class where we can leave him without our companion.
With such, he would be able to move on to a higher level of learning, at both Edufarm & GUG.
