Just as our curiosity on the amazing transformation of the tadpole to a frog and the pupanarium of wriggler(larva)to a mosquito reached the peak; it is my utmost pleasure to share these exciting observations with you, parents!
While we discussed that female mosquitoes need blood for it to lay eggs,
Dillon immediately responded:"So,only female mosquito will bite!".
Qian Yu, Oisin, Bryan, Parveena & Cayden spontaneously questioned:"Then, what do the male mosquitoes drink and do since they also do not take care of the eggs?!"
We then proceed to the theme on water creature. It is my habit to introduce the composition of water ie. H2O. This year, I was challenged by a child who asked without hesitation:"Are you sure?" It appeared to me that she does not believe that water is formed so easily! Neither do I?
Then again, fish will never be left out of our discussion let alone how it breathe.
As I was 'dramatizing' on how the gills act like a filter, drawing out the 'O' from
H2O and pushing the rest out of the gills;the same child paraphrased her understanding on my 'drama'. This is how it goes...:"The 'O' must be bigger that is why it is trapped by the gills where else the H2 got out of the filter."
What touches my heart is that our little young learners have the right aplitude and attitude towards learning. They think like great scienists. Keep up the good work my young scientists!
Watch us learn how to go about with seriation.
