Hi 3.2 pupils,
This week, we will be writing our reflection on graciousness.
By being gracious, we can help one another get on the day without showing anger or being impolite.
This is more so in a densely populated city like Singapore where it is crowded everywhere.
Mrs Nam has introduced the 'Magical Dust of Kindness' project where you are to show your graciousness by using the magical words.
I hope you have been practising saying the magical words.
To help you with the reflection, I have listed some questions to guide you.
You are not to just answer the questions.
Instead, you are to use these questions as a guide and add your own ideas, opinions and thoughts.
In this way, your reflection will be more meaningful and interesting.
Here are the questions?
1. What is you meaning of 'graciousness'?
2. Can you give some examples of acts of graciousness?
3. What acts of graciousness have your personally done?
4. Besides the reasons I gave, what other reasons do you think we should be gracious to one another?
5. Do you think Singaporeans are generally gracious? Why do you think so?
6. How can we make Anderson pupils more gracious?
7. Do you like the 'Magical Dust of Kindness' project? Why?
8. How have you benefitted from this project?
I hope to read your reflection soon.

Cyberwellness 3 - Danger of Sharing Personal Information
Dear 3.2 pupils,
Nowadays, we are exposed to the exciting world of the Internet.
We are able to search for information or even chat with friends at the click of a mouse.
At times, we are required to key in their personal information and we might not even be aware of the dangers of doing it.
This is Elean’s encounter with one of her cyber contacts.
“Elean was a 10 years old girl. She loved chatting with friends and enjoyed knowing new friends online through various social network platforms.
One day, there was a boy named Roy who initiated a chat with Elean. As Elean was bored at home, she decided to add him to her friends’ list and both started chatting with each other.
After about 10 minutes, Elean began to share her personal information to Roy. She even sent a photograph of herself to Roy. Soon, Roy requested to meet up with Elean. Even though Elean knew nothing about Roy, she agreed.
Just then, her parents came home and found out that Elean was going to meet up with an online friend, one whom she had never seen him before. Her parents stopped her and highlighted the dangers of meeting with a stranger for a young girl like her.”
What about you? Share with us your story.
You may use the following questions to help in your reflection.
1) What your experiences on online activities?
2) Have you ever revealed your personal information online?
3) What form of personal information can and cannot be shared online?
4) What are the dangers of sharing personal information?
5) What would you do if your Cyber pal requested for personal information to be shared?
I am looking forward to reading your response in your blog.
