**Science**: The Human Body
|| ||   || We shall be reading one of Julia Donaldson's stories called 'The Magic Paintbrush' which is an adapted Chinese folktale. Here is a video of this Chinese folktale retold by a storyteller who uses objects in the Museum of Asian Arts's collection to enhance the telling of the folktale. In this way, we can compare and contrast the two version of this wonderful story. In class, during Drama & Music, we shall work in groups to role-play this folktale and each group will perform in front of the whole class, making use of instrument and props available in our classroom. media type="youtube" key="YVSzTvvDOcc?rel=0" height="315" width="560" ||  ||   || Click on the body parts powerpoint to guess the body part ... let me know whether you liked it:) ||  ||   ||
