Theme: Care and Appreciation
This theme teaches pupils to express happiness, concern, support, and sorrow in different situations, and to show appreciation to others. Pupils read an article about being appreciative, write greeting and e-cards, learn abstract and concrete nouns, and recite the poem 'Swinging'.
We express happiness, concern, support, or sorrow for different situations.
| Examination | Wish you good luck! Work hard and believe in yourself. All the best! | |

| Sick | Sorry to hear you are not feeling well. Hope you have a speedy recovery. Get well soon! | |
| Loss | We are sad to hear of your recent loss. Our sincere condolences to you and your family. | |

Suggestion 1: Before bed, list the things you are most grateful for that day.
Suggestion 2: Learn to be thankful — to parents, friends, the postman, or the bus driver.

Pupils write personalised cards and e-cards to express gratitude.

Electronic cards (e-cards) are digital versions of greeting cards sent online through email — they are quick and environmentally friendly.

Nouns can be abstract (ideas, feelings, thoughts) or concrete (sense nouns — can be seen, heard, smelled, tasted, touched).
| pride | abstract — My sister takes great pride in her singing. | |
| confidence | abstract — Asin told the story with great confidence. | |
| friendship | abstract — Our friendship started in kindergarten. | |
| school | concrete — I love going to school. | |

Pupils recite the poem 'Swinging' with actions.
Swinging, swinging, low and high, down in the green grass and up in the sky.
When I'm bigger I'll stand when I swing, when I'm bigger I'll do everything.
Write two rhyming words for the words in bold, e.g. swing — string — bring.
Create a model of a futuristic playground and present it to the class.
Abstract nouns express ideas, feelings, or thoughts (pride, confidence, friendship, charity, childhood). Concrete nouns are 'sense' nouns we can see, hear, smell, taste, or touch (school, music, perfume, sweets, table).
An e-card is a digital version of a greeting card sent through email — quick to send and environmentally friendly. Always be appreciative: list things you are grateful for each day and say 'thank you' to those who help you.
📝 Kosa Kata
Abstract nouns like 'happiness' and 'freedom' cannot be touched or seen, yet they shape our lives. Saying a simple 'thank you' to the postman or bus driver is one of the easiest ways to practise being appreciative — and it costs nothing!
