IEP Open House 2023: Y6B Egyptian Theme

Here’s my super late post about our September 13, 2023, Open House. The majority of the parents came to watch their children present their projects for Social, Science, and Computer subjects.

The Open House was held in our very own classroom. Our theme was Egypt Two weeks before the show, I instructed my Year 6B students to make arts and crafts related to Egypt like the ones you see in the pictures.

This was the program of activities.  

Group 1: Bridge, Tunnel, and the Mountain Model

Group 2: Maze made of feature board

Group 3: Water Wheel Model

Arts and crafts with the parents making a pyramid pop-up card.

If you wanna know how to make these arts and crafts please DM me for more information. 

There were also other art projects that weren’t related to Egypt, but I thought maybe parents were interested to see them. 

I love making miniatures so I made a 3d model of Egypt. The big picture in front of the class was painted by my previous students. She also made two (2) camels for me. I paid her less than 1,000 THB for her labor and materials. I know I'm not good at drawing or painting, it's not my cup of tea. I'm into arts and crafts. But my kids are good at drawing and sketching.

Students danced to the tune of Black Horse by Katy Perry. They were outstanding dancers. One of the best. This ends my blog so bye for now.

Happiness is a choice we make everyday

People are about as happy as they make up their minds to be according to Abraham Lincoln. What does that mean to you? For me, it means that we all live in a world where we create our own happiness. Our happiness and our sadness are mostly about how we choose to view things. It’s an inside job, a state of mind. We can have everything in the world and still be miserable, or we can have little and feel great joy. I would say that happiness is a choice we make every day.

If we focus more on what we have rather than what we don't have, we will be happy. Happiness is not something that we get from the outside, it comes from a place within. It’s a state of being that we can uncover within, connect to, and choose to “be” anytime. We only need to be grateful every single day for everything that we have and accept ourselves and the things that we don’t possess.

It sounds very idealistic, but we are not meant to feel happy all the time. Life is difficult. We suffer, we feel pain, we feel alone, we feel abandoned. We are human. This is the truth. I also believe that our greatest obstacle to the choice of happiness that lies within is basically our mind.

We think over a million thoughts a day with more than half being negative, and 85% of the negative thoughts we’ve had over and over for years because we couldn't just move on. We still tend to cling to our past.

And so many of the negative thoughts that we have are directed at us. We are constantly bombarded with thoughts that we’re not worthy, enough, or incapable, not beautiful enough, not sexy healthy, or fit enough. And to which standards do we base these judgments, self-criticism or negative self-talk? Are we happy comparing ourselves to others or believing whatever social media and the latest trends are projecting?

Comparison is a thief of joy. We should embrace our truest selves and learn to love ourselves for who and what we are. We shouldn't direct these harmful, false, negative thoughts non-stop to ourselves. If we want to be truly happy, we must first begin by being happy, proud, kind, loving, thoughtful, generous, and grateful for who we are as extraordinary human beings. The friendship we have with ourselves is the greatest foundation for everything we do in life. And most especially your faith in God🦋

When we love ourselves completely and become worthy travel companions for life’s journey, then we can see “something beautiful” in our lives when we’re feeling low and sad. When we truly believe deep within our hearts, that we are worthy of happiness, we will begin to see happiness. Be brave and have a little faith, We’ve got this.

Corndog for Afternoon Snack

Welcome to another blog. It’s Saturday afternoon. I’m craving for a corn dog for my snack so I got it frozen from the fridge.

I put it in the microwave for 90 seconds and it’s ready to eat! But wait, I need slices of cheese, mustard, and ketchup on top so it’s more tasty.

By the way guys, A corn dog is a sausage on a stick that has been coated in a thick layer of cornmeal batter and deep-fried.

It originated in the US and is commonly found in American cuisine. You can buy it at Tops or Villa Market here in Bangkok. It’s perfect with Pringles pizza flavor and a cup of coffee. Let’s eat!

Glow-In-The-Dark Galaxy Jar Science Experiment for Science Day

It’s my late post about the Science Activity at school. We’re assigned to do a Science Experiment for Y5-6.

I suggested to do the glow in the glow-in-the-dark Galaxy Jar in our group because I believe it’s fascinating and easy to do and students will be interested in participating.

And of course, it’s proven that they did enjoy it. My Y6B was totally amazed at how they make a glow-in-the-dark galaxy jar.

Our setting in the auditorium was dark because some of the stations have different activities relating to the “galaxy space” as our main theme for this year’s IEP Science Experiments.

Overall, I would say that it was a great success, and our efforts were not in vain. Thanks to T. Fizza, our students, and other teachers who participated and believed that this was actually suitable for our student's learning needs.

Y6B Halloween 2023

This is my very late post on Halloween. I’m very proud to present our miniature of a graveyard. It’s just easy to do. What I did was I instructed my Y6 students to divide themselves into groups and decide on which arts and crafts they’ll need to do as their art project for Halloween.

The first group did the haunted houses, the second group was assigned to toilet paper mummies, and the 3rd group was the dead tree, the 4th group did the base and the fences.

The witches were made by my previous students 4 years ago. I still have some of the projects worth keeping because I don’t really like throwing away students' projects because I know that they work hard for them and that these are useful for the next classes in the future. I really love recycling things.

I hope this inspires you to do recycling for all your school projects to save the Earth and to lessen your expenses as well.    

Here are some of their Halloween projects.

For more information on how these projects are made, please send me a dm/pm. Please check my FB video, like and follow me at elektra7577. Thank you💕
