Introduction to Model Drawing

Here's the parents' guide to the booklet that I created.



Being a parent of young children too, I hope I can help fellow parents by sharing what I know and feel what other parents would love to know. Please comment below, and subscribe to my channel too: https://www.youtube.com/c/mdmkoo?sub_confirmation=1

I created this booklet for the children in my K2 girl's class and it was distributed to her classmates on her birthday as part of the birthday goodie bags for her classmates.

I have plans in publishing a book based on this concept in future. Please comment to give me feedback on how to improve this book or how I can better reach out to parents and help their children with this book. Thank you!

Activity 5.1

Most of you have identified the problems in the torches that were assigned to your groups respectively, but we were unable to consolidate the 3 different problems in class today. Here is a consolidation of possible problems:

Problem 1: The batteries are arranged wrongly.
Action taken: Arrange the batteries correctly.
How is it solved? The batteries are arranged in the correct order for electric current to flow through the circuit.

Problem 2: The bulb is broken / fused.
Action taken: Replace the bulb.
How is it solved? A working bulb allows electric current to flow through it.

Problem 3: The switch is loose.
Action taken: Tighten the switch.
How is it solved? The switch is connected properly to the rest of the circuit.

A torch is an electrical system. For a torch to give off light, all the parts of the torch must work together.

Plant Transport System (Day 2)

The same stalk of celery used in Day 1, slightly slit and then torn apart to reveal the water-carrying tubes.

Taken in class right after the stalk was torn apart.


Taken in the staffroom after class.

Let's take a closer look.
