NOTICE :
Hi parents,
TAS will be moving out of Yishun as our lease for the current Yishun centre is ending in a few months' time.
There is a high possibility that we might be moving to Ang Mo Kio as we are unable to find a suitable place in Yishun.
Tentatively, we will move earliest at the end of January (2011) or latest the beginning
of March (2011).
However, this is not finalised as there are some details to be tied down.
Thank you,
TAS
Name of programme: Survivor 2010
(Similar to Survivor 2009, except a few of the
challenges are a little different)
What it is about: We have 2 parts to this programme.
Part A of programme- We will teach the children
about plant and animal adaptation and use mnemonics to
help them to remember the facts.
This part will take place at our centre
Part B of our programme- We will bring the
children to the Botanic Gardens for a field trip. We will
show them how plants adapt to their surroundings and
they will also get to see carnivorous plants up close.
We will then have a Survivor Challenge in which
the children are divided into teams and are given
a scenario: they are stranded on a deserted island.
They now have to make use of what they learn in
Science to come up with ways to survive in the
wild. They would make use of the materials given
to come up with solutions to the problem.
The winners of this challenge will have a
free Science Experiment book to take home.
Wet weather plan: If it rains, instead of going
to the Botanic Gardens, we will conduct a
"Who Killed Spongebob" challenge
at the centre in which the children would have to
use what they learn in Science to solve his murder
and piece the forensic clues together. They will be
divided into teams and given forensic tools to help them
solve this 'murder'

PSLE marking days:
Programme: Crash course revision
What does it cover: We will go through a few of the more
common themes of composition writing.
We will also go through synthesis, grammar, comprehension,
editing, grammar and vocabulary. We will provide notes for
the vocabulary words taught. These notes have the mnemonics
for each word, hence it will be easy for the children to remember
the words. Synthesis notes will also be provided and the children
will be taught how to tackle inference questions. We will also teach
the children how to do comprehension close passages and provide
notes for it as well.
Basically, this is a crash course to make sure the children have
some thorough revision before the SA2.
When: 19 - 21 October (Tuesday to Thursday)
Time: 10 am - 2 pm: with a 15 min break (total 12 hours)
** For our crash course, we are offering it at a discount as we
want to help the children get ready for the SA2 and not to waste the
PSLE marking days at home- some would just take the time to slow
down and relax which is the last thing to do so near the SA2.
Cost: $144
Venue: Yishun centre (Block 414, Yishun Ave 11, #01-1859)
How to register: You can call us at 67588744 or
email us at thealternativestory@gmail.com and state the
name of the programme you are registering for. In this case,
it would be 'Crash Course Revision'
This course is for only 2 levels:
It will be Pri 1/2, 3/4 or 5/6.
We will start a class once there are at least 4 children
registered for it.
We will tell you the payment details once you register.
Nov/Dec holiday programme:
We will be having an intensive creative writing programme during
the year-end holidays.
Programme: Love to write!
What does it cover: We will cover all the creative writing
techniques- metaphorical language, building tension, interesting
story beginnings, varied sentence structure, story hooks etc.
We will teach the children how to apply these techniques to a range
of themes. We will also teach them how to start the compositions in
creative ways. On the last day of the programme, we will show the
children how to write a composition based on an imaginary setting.
This is to get them to be creative and to show them how to add a
twist to their writing. This course will help the children to get ready
for the examinations but it will also expose them to creative writing in
its original form-using their imagination to add 'spice' to their stories.
