On Monday, Totem's dad and Irene's mum talked to us about being doctors. We learnt that doctors help to make us strong by getting us better. They let the kids pretend to be doctors and we listened to heartbeats, cleaned wounds and checked out what an uvula and tonsils look like. By doing this we learnt lots of new words including stethoscope! And the kids got some first hand experience of being doctors!
EQ's mummy came to talk to us about her very cool job - being in management and behind the scenes of television production. The kids learnt that there are people who are in charge of creating television shows and it takes a lot of work to put it together.
Porsche's mum talked to us about what she does - she sells different types of vehicles. The kids really enjoyed talking about what kinds of cars they liked and they were very excited when she gave them a toy car to take home!
Lucy's dad came to talk to us about automotive forecasting. These were very big words for RM but Mr.Ben taught us what they meant. This presentation went very well with our transport topic and the kids enjoyed discussing lots of vehicle related topics with Mr.Ben.
Ploen's mummy came to talk to us about being a dentist. The kids learnt a lot of new words and got to practice using various equipment and making molds of teeth. They also learnt that we have to keep our teeth very clean and healthy or the dentist will know! :)
Nari's dad talked to RM about what it is like to be a pilot. He also explained how an airplane flies and stays up in the air. Then he did a 'magic trick' involving air pressure and the kids were blown away by it!
The kids loved their gifts as well!
Pailin's mummy talked to us about their papaya farm. It was very interesting for the kids to learn about how the little seeds in the papaya can grow to be big trees - she took us through the whole process! We also learnt some interesting facts such as papayas having a gender. In the end, some of the kids wanted to try some papaya and they really liked it, as did the grown ups! Thank you.
I can't thank you enough for making our very first 'Occupations talk' such a success. You all put in so much effort to your presentations and talks. The kids learnt so much and it was refreshing to see how well they were engaging with the parents who came to speak. Term 3 will also have lots of exciting new opportunities too, so watch this space :)
