Covid-19 HBL with M&M Day 6-8


See Morgan sneak pass with my mac under his arm while I am on a com call. Give him the stare while pointing my finger at him and his loot. He pauses to give me an innocent "is this Kenneth's?"... Ha! Boy has gone round opening people's laptop to check...

"Is this Kenneth's?" tends to follow with "where is my computer?" .... Get this straight, "YY" is on the login page... there is NO your computer...

Morg's drawings remind me of the Ghana teacher drawing microsoft word window on a chalkboard. You know, things you do when you are desperate without a computer....

Happy 50th Birthday Miss Dhanya!!! Don't know what you do to deserve this but Morgan is so excited the whole morning that he makes a card for you!

Simple game to occupy the kiddos while I get busy... I think this is an easy game but hmmm... M and M are both momentary lost and really take their time around the house.

Music time... Watch NANTA, the korean musical performance using kitchen knifes to chop chop chop... feel good about the show till suddenly realise... maybe Morgan should not be watching this... hmm... change to some random youtuber creating music using pots and pans...

There is M and M version. Making noise is pure happiness...

Back to the water bodies lessons.. You can see the pond and the lake and up front is the very impressive river!
It starts with Meggie leaving her 3D river following through the hills (on the left) on the table. In no time, Morgi replicates a bigger version. "Jie Jie's river is small, Morgan's river is BIGGER"... I am so proud of the awesome original and the fantastic copycat. wow wow wow...

Snake and ladder is a very boring game. Even Morgan shortens the game by cheating up every ladder. Ok, let's just officially retire this game.

New favourites for the past few days. My Encyclopedia of Very Important Things is high on Morg's list. There is even a one page story on the tortoise and the hare...

We (I) decide to hone some acting skills and act out the whole story!!! So much fun creating this video. Except for the first scene where we have too many versions, all other scenes are take one... My first video!!! Wow I also learn a new skill during this WTF WFH HBL!!!

Check this out! Ok, need to work on the ending... Decide not to ask both what is the moral of the story because Megan soooo does not like stories which has a moral touchpoint... toooo preachy!!!

Re-allocation of watering-plants chore to the most free person in the household. Quickly notice that he waters the same pot 10x while maintaining dry soil for all the rest. In other news, we discover the bean that Megan planted for her science project months ago is doing extremely well at some forgotten corner. Sprouty has flowers and fruits!!! So exciting... Credits to the previous plant waterer.

Megan makes cute and yummy almond jelly with longans and lychees.

Worksheets achieved:
Morg finds these worksheets hard and I find it hard to teach:
