The Secret of Tender Pancakes Or Waffles

  • Stir the batter with a whisk or fork just until dry ingredients are blended. The batter will be lumpy.
  • Overmixing the batter will make the pancakes or waffles tough.
  • Use a heavy frying pan or griddle for pancakes.
  • Preheat the griddle in advance, the griddle or waffle iron is hot enough when drops of water sprinkled on surface will dance.
  • Too cool a griddle produces flat, tough pancakes.
  • Too hot a griddle causes outside of pancakes to brown before center is cooked.
  • Cook pancakes until top side is full of bubbles; turn to do other side.
  • Batter that is too thin will result in flat pancakes.
  • Batter that is too thick won’t spread on griddle.
  • Turn pancakes only once during cooking.
  • Make big batches of pancakes & waffles to freeze the extra for quick & easy breakfasts. Extra batter can also be refrigerated.

Dompet raya








Assalamualaikum
Program hari raya bakal tiba. Cikgu dah sediakan dompet untuk duit raya murid-murid. Perancangan awal adalah untuk mengadakan program ziarah dan marhaban selama seminggu ke rumah setiap murid. Selama seminggu bermula dari pukul 8.00 pagi semua murid-murid akan berkumpul di hadapan sekolah sebelum pergi ke rumah rakan-rakan mereka. Program akan berakhir sehingga pukul 11.00 pagi di mana semua murid akan balik semula ke sekolah untuk pulang ke rumah masing-masing.

Selesai acara marhaban yang pastinya setiap murid akan mendapat duit raya yang akan disimpan di dalam dompet comel. Cikgu bercadang akan memanggil pihak Bank Rakyat untuk mengadakan program menabung di sekolah. Pasti seronok kerana setiap kali membuka akaun murid-murid akan diberikan hadiah menarik.

Semoga acara ini diberkati Allah hendaknya... semoga anak-anak akan dapat mengekalkan sikap berjimat cermat dan suka menabung. Selepas ni anak-anak bolehlah melayari Kelab Nuri:

Membuat manik kertas

Assalamualaikum
Jom kita buat manik dari kertas terbuang bersama-sama kanak-kanak. Selain meningkatkan kemahiran motor halus kanak-kanak, kita juga akan dapat meningkatkan daya kreativiti kanak-kanak kerana setelah manik disiapkan mereka akan memikirkan apa yang boleh dilakukan terhadap manik-manik yang cantik itu.

Apa yang diperlukan hanyalah:
1. kertas majalah / katalog / surat khabar / pendua
2. gam
3. gunting
4. pengilat kuku
5. pencungkil gigi ( untuk mengeringkan manik / menggulung kertas)
6. batang putik kapas ( untuk menggulung kertas menjadi manik)
7. benang

Selamat mencuba.
Contoh potongan kertas untuk menghasilkan bentuk yang berbeza.


Manik-manik dikeringkan setelah disapukan pengilat kuku atau varnis dengan mencucukkannya pada pencungkil gigi.



Dijadikan tirai di kelas prasekolah


Menjadi gelang untuk dihadiahkan kepada ibu atau kakak.


Dijadikan rantai yang cantik sempena hari ibu.


Menjadi anting-anting,


Gelang yang comel


Gelang berbentuk silinder yang digabung dengan manik lain


Pokok hiasan

3D LETTERS

Submitted by Cindy Marotta, a Preschool teacher from Warwick, Rhode Island

I have a lesson that my preschoolers loved to do and are very proud of.

In the course of learning our ABC's, we create a large decorated letter each time a new letter is learned. I cut a large letter out of poster board ( I use different colors for each letter), and we decorate it as a class. We glue on whatever we have handy. We have used cut-up egg cartons, feathers, cut-up paper towel rolls, etc.

We paint the cardboard rolls and egg cartons and glue on buttons, foam shapes and various shapes from construction paper.

When it is completed we hang it high up on the wall for everyone to see. The letter has 3 dimensional qualities which really make it look like a piece of artwork!

Catatan:
Saya juga telah membuat aktiviti ini di kelas. Saya melakarkan bentuk huruf dan membina dekorasi di seluruh abjad berkenaan. Ada kala ia bercorak seperti hiasan batik dan apabila diwarnakan memang cantik sekali. Kanak-kanak pun seronok mewarnakan abjad gergasi ini.
