social studies learning journey

Hi,my name is keerthigah.i am studying in ANDERSON PRIMARY SCHOOL as a p5 student.Now i am going to tell you more about my Social Studies Learning Journey.We went to the Old Ford Factory first.we first watched a animated war of the Malay Regiment vs the Japanese.it was sad that the Malay Regiment lost to the japanese.After that we went to the museum. And a young generation boy told us more about the War of the Malay Regiment against the Japanese Soldiers.He also asked us to move around and see all the different articles that was pasted there.He even explained to us every single article.Some students were not listening,but he didn't wanted to scold us and so he carried on.Then he went to one article which i sawand was about to cry.But luckily,Ashley was there like my sister to cheer me up!And do u know what article it was?Do u remember the Japanese took over singapore and named it as "Light Of The South"?At that period of time,the small children were picking up rice grains for a living.And do you know that if the Japanese Soldiers identified anyone as enemies,they would be taken to various beaches in Singapore and these people who were identified as enimies never returned after they reached the beach.Do you know what happened to those people?Just make a guess!You can tell me once you read this blog.Also chinese men between 18 to 50 years old were taken to screening centres.After that there were words called "Examined" pasted on their hands.I wish such generations will not repeat in this world again!

Personal Response1 :RACIAL HARMONY DAY!!!

Good afternoon everyone!i am keerthigah as you all know!today i am here to talk to you about Racial Harmony Day which celebrations were taken in my school.One of my friend named syairah who is a malay,wore her malay batik.It was really beautiful,you should have seen it.I wore my indian costume called Panjabi suit.Most of my friend said it was nice,and i said Thank You.A few teachers acted out a assembly about racial harmony day it was really fun and exciting.I really liked the chinese thing.Firstly,it was chinese new year,and a teacher sweeped the floor and the lady"it is chinese new year,and if you sweep the floor it is like sweeping away the good luck"she exclimed!that was the thing that made me laugh the most...We also hade a half-an-hour maths lesson with our teacher Mr.Ong.I really enjoyed myself there.It was the most happiest day of my life!I will never forget that day!!!
