Girl Guides! June Profi Badgework

Dear Girl Guides,

Please choose ONE or TWO proficiency badges to work on. Here is a list of 11 badges, including new ones like Cook (different from the handbook clause), Laundress & Hostess.

If you helped out at openhouse at the kitchen (thank u, good job!), you already qualify for Cook, so please do one more. If you helped out at the spice rooms (well done!), you have a huge "discount" for Hostess, so I hope you can also do another.

Personally, I hope you can do readers/ writers because I enjoy the Reading test (hahaha) and reading your works.

***PS: Sorry, forgot - ONLY Sec 3s to do Heritage Badge, please! You'll all get your turn ;p

PW - Reminder about group files

For all the girls who have put aside the group file to do the product... and are now scrambling to put it back together:

Contents of Group File:

1) Cover & Contents
2) Minutes of meetings
3) Research Data - Secondary Data (From books, Internet, etc) AND Primary Data (survey findings, observations, analyses. Remember to state the significance of your data)
4) Individual Reflections (At least one reflection each, at end of project)

Go download the rubrics again. All the best!

Lang Arts - Poetry

Songs are basically poems put to music. Hope you had some fun analysing the songs we heard in class. Now you know how to differentiate between the "cheem" and the shallow!

Anyway, here are very simple, sample one-paragraph analyses of "Mad World" & "Over the rainbow/ Wonderful World".

To get you started on full-length analyses!
