Chelsea's NATIONAL HEROES DAY PROJECT

In the Philippines, the birthday of Andres Bonifacio, the founder of the KKK, or Kataastaasang, Kagalanggalangan Katipunan ng mga Anak ng Bayan, is commemorated as National Heroes Day on November 30. This is because Andres Bonifacio was born on November 30.

It was then amended and moved to the fourth Monday of August to honor the men and women, known and unknown, who gave their lives defending our country, the Philippines.

This day is celebrated with a great deal of fervor by the people. A day that is ideal for commemorating the lives and contributions of our GREAT PEOPLE who gave their lives and battled for the independence of the Philippines.

In this, kids from different schools pay tribute to our NATIONAL HEROES by writing essays and making postcards of people they look up to and admire.

Chelsea's Works:

  

My youngest daughter has a lot of respect for all of our NATIONAL HEROES, and she wants to know more about them. She even asks her grandfather to tell her everything about GOMBURZA, ANDRES BONIFACIO, RIZAL, etc. At school, they talk about this, but she wants to know more.

The Department of Education wants all public and private schools to talk about the bravery and patriotism of our national heroes in classroom discussions and other related activities in subjects like Sibika at Kultura, Hekasi, Araling Panlipunan, Values Education, Music, Arts, Physical Education and Health, Filipino, and English. Teachers have been holding contests and debates in which students write essays, draw pictures, tell stories, or give speeches. The goal is to teach students about the values of heroism, nationalism, patriotism, and love of country that our country's heroes showed during hard times.

As we celebrate our NATIONAL HEROES, let us not forget the heroes who make our country something to be proud of. Among our MODERN DAY HEROES are OFW (Overseas Filipino Workers), PUBLIC and PRIVATE TEACHERS, NURSES, DOCTORS, NOT EPAL POLITICIANS, and others. Their ongoing efforts in making their jobs truly bless and are remarkable in the eyes of the Filipino people.

SCRAPBOOK FOR CHELSEA

The only thing left for us to do is come up with some fun projects for our children to work on. As parents, this is one of the tasks that we have.

My youngest child has requested that I create a SCRAPBOOK for her. To put it simply, that is my stance. Making scrapbooks was a hobby of mine when I was in elementary school and later in high school. A unique variation on the scrapbook format.

On the other hand, for my daughter Chelsea, she requested that I make a scrapbook.

A SCRAPBOOK

HATCH ANIMALS

BORN ALIVE ANIMALS

It is a simple task for me to complete. I started by doing some research online and collecting all of the photographs and topics that are necessary for her scrapbook. Also, print it out.

After that, I attached it all together with a paper clip made of plastic. After that, I created a lock for her scrapbook by stitching together two miniature buttons.

I decorated her scrapbook by sticking on a few pictures I had cut out of magazines.

The completed project.

    

NUTRITION MONTH CULMINATING ACTIVITIES

The main goal of this campaign is to get Filipinos to realize how important it is to eat more vegetables to prevent micronutrient deficiencies and noncommunicable diseases like diabetes, cancer, and heart disease.

  

"Pagkain ng gulay ugaliin, araw-araw itong ihain!"

The end of NUTRITION MONTH was marked by a wide variety of events, many of which included the participation of parents. The goal of the activity is to get families to eat more vegetables and grow backyard gardens so that they can not only meet their daily food needs but also make more money by selling extra garden goods.

Among the other activities is a POSTER MAKING CONTEST. 

The second event was THE NUTRITION JINGLE CONTEST, which was won by Chelsea's group. They came in first position in this division.

CONGRATULATION GRADE 4 CHICO

The search for the A1 Child comes in third.

What exactly is the A1 CHILD? Seeking a youngster who is exceptional in some manner and fits the description of something or someone that is in first-class condition or superb condition. During the month when we honor nutrition, they are looking for a youngster that is healthy and balanced in their diet.

And this time, for the third time, it was my Mikaela who got it.

A1 Child - 1st Place

Both the students and the parents had a great time participating in the activities. In addition to that, we teach our children how to make LAW'UY (Visayan Healthy Soup) and FRUIT SALAD.

These activities will revolve around the theme that aims to promote the consumption of vegetables contained in the fifth Nutritional Guidelines for Filipinos in order to prevent and eliminate deficiencies in vitamin A and iron in the Filipino diet. This theme was chosen because the fifth Nutritional Guidelines for Filipinos were released in 2015. In the same vein, it encourages the practice of consuming at least three servings of vegetables on a daily basis.

After finishing our meal, we made our way once more to the GYM in order to watch The Search for the Best Nutrition Month Costume.

A very busy schedule for both me and my children, but despite how exhausted we are, we all had a great time.

Good work, ladies; you make me PROUD of you.

In accordance with Presidential Decree 491, the month of July has been designated as Nutrition Month.

CHILDREN ACTIVE GAMES

The role of parents is to guide their children toward improvement. Whether that be through EDUCATION, FOOD, or HEALTH. In my opinion, youngsters must maintain a healthy activity balance. Children today choose to play at internet cafes or at home on Nintendo and Sony home game systems.

  
We are all aware that playing computer games poses a danger of damage to children.

Children who get too much "Nintendo thumb" or other injuries from playing their video game presents for an extended period of time this holiday season are at risk. According to specialists, people who spend hours hunched over personal computers and surfing the Internet could be setting themselves up for years of excruciating pain due to poor posture and repetitive strain injury (RSI).

As a result of its prolonged use, some children show symptoms of repetitive stress injury (RSI), most notably in their thumbs. These kinds of injuries are caused by repeated motions in the body, and they can lead to damage to the tendons, nerves, and muscles of the affected area.

All of these potential dangers should serve as warning signs to us, as parents, that we need to take action to protect our children's health. I am not suggesting that we prevent kids from using computers; I am aware, as are all of us, that children will use computers throughout their entire lives. Thus, it is imperative that we instruct them on how to do so in a manner that is risk-free and keeps them out of trouble.

Why not teach our youngsters to play our games? This is the implication I am making. Games similar to PIKO, TAGA'ANAY, PEEK-A-BOO (PIYUNGANAY), and other Filipino Games

I have not observed children playing outside today. Too awful. I miss the days gone by.

Please give us permission to persuade our kids to take them outside to play in the heat of the sun at least once a week. It is beneficial to their overall wellness. And if you take the kids outside for a while, you'll notice that, after a while, they begin to express themselves more, which contributes to an increase in their self-confidence.

Chelz Flash Card Assignment

When I was still in my primary years, I always remember that my MATH TEACHER would give us an assignment to make flash cards for our addition, subtraction, multiplication, and division—the four BASIC OPERATIONS in MATHEMATICS. When I was in elementary school, my MATH TEACHER would assign us to make flash cards for our addition, subtraction, and multiplication facts.

In contrast, the flash cards we use appear like this when we use them:

 Standard Flash Card size - 8.5 inches x 11.0 inches

The current size of their flash cards is 5 by 8. It's so huge that it has three digits on it!

Simply click on this link here Flash Cards and follow the instructions to create a flash card that is BOTH QUICK and ACCURATE.

You can tailor these Flash Cards to your preferences by selecting various options from the available variables. You have the option of printing the Flash Cards with either four, two, or one card per page. Flash Cards are easy to use, can be downloaded for free, and can be changed in many ways.

Children in kindergarten, first grade, second grade, and third grade can benefit greatly from using these Flash Cards as a resource.

K-la's EXPERIMENT Part 2

Do you remember the post I made about my daughter's experiment on this same blog on June 25, 2012? The answer is right here...

HONEY, FOOD COLORING(Red) and Aluminum Plate

As can be seen, honey and food coloring are being combined in order to give the impression that the substance is blood.

Children have a better understanding of how blood circulates throughout the body by participating in experiments like this one, which examine blood flow.

The constant movement of blood through the circulatory system is referred to as blood flow. The human body is composed of several different processes, each of which performs a unique set of functions. We have a digestive system that helps us absorb nutrients and break down food. It's called the gastrointestinal system. In addition, we have a system called the respiratory system, which is in charge of taking in oxygen and getting rid of carbon dioxide. The urinary system is responsible for the elimination of waste from the body. The cardiovascular system contributes to the distribution of nutrients, oxygen, and other metabolic byproducts. The reproductive system is in charge of ensuring that the species will continue to exist. Both the neurological system and the endocrine system are in charge of managing the integration and operation of the other systems in the body.

You can also accomplish this at your place of residence or at your place of education. Perform some sort of experiment like this one so you can learn more about your body. So simply, simply check out the prerequisites for the experiment that are listed here: k-las-experiment

K-LA's Experiment

I went to the NCCC Mall the day before yesterday, Sunday, June 24, 2012, to get the supplies Mikaela required for her Science Project.

1.  Bottle of HONEY  

2.  Paper Plate 

3.  Food Coloring (RED) 


The day that they will conduct their experiment has finally arrived. I can't help but be curious about what will happen next. Are you curious to find out? Me too.
