Singapore Chinese Cultural Centre is happy to be a partner of Start Small Dream Big for the first time.
As this year’s theme is “Our Family, Our Community”, we collaborated with local illustrator Jang to create a series of comics which looks at the family values of filial piety, kindness, and love. In these bilingual stories, Little Fox and friends meet Little Otter in Singapore and many adventures await them.
Teachers are encouraged to use these comics to teach these family values to their students and make it relevant in their daily lives. Another example of how teachers can use our materials as teaching resources is shown in this video where we shared stories from the cultural picture books created in partnership with Ngee Ann Polytechnic. Each preschool centre is provided with a poster for teaching and learning, and each student gets to choose one out of four postcard designs to colour and write to their loved ones. Teachers are encouraged to email the completed postcards to education@singaporeccc.org.sg for a virtual showcase. The top submissions would get free workshops and guided tour for teachers at your preferred date and time.
Preschools that are interested to partner us can watch the video below to find out more. For enquiries, please email education@singaporeccc.org.sg.
