Outing Class

Outing Class

Pembelajaran di sekolah tidak mesti dilakukan di dalam kelas saja. Pembelajaran juga bisa dilakukan di luar kelas (outing class). Dengan belajar di luar kelas siswa tidak hanya mendapat suasana baru yang menyenangkan tetapi juga mereka bisa mendapat pengalaman  baru yang tidak akan pernah mereka lupakan. Outing class bisa dilakukan di halaman sekolah yang sejuk, berkeliling ke lingkungan sekitar sekolah atau juga mengunjungi ke tempat-tempat umum seperti museum, pabrik, galeri seni bahkan ke kantor pemadam kebakaran seperti yang dilakukan oleh siswa kelas III SD Generasi Rabbani Villa Nusa Indah 3 Bojong Kulur, Bogor pada hari Selasa, 19 Februari 2013. Di kantor pemadam kebakaran Kota Bekasi mereka belajar banyak hal tentang profesi pemadam kebakaran. Mereka belajar tentang apa itu kebakaran, jenis-jenis kebakaran, dan cara mencegah terjadinya kebakaran. Selain itu, siswa juga dikenalkan dengan peralatan pemadam kebakaran seperti selang, safety suits dan mobil pemadam kebakaran. Di akhir kegiatan, mereka berkesempatan untuk mencoba naik mobil pemadam kebakaran mengelilingi jalan di sekitar kantor pemadam kebakaran Kota Bekasi. Berikut dokumentasi kegiatan outing class kelas III SD Gen-R Villa Nusa Indah 3.

 

Dengan kegiatan outing class tersebut, diharapkan siswa dapat memilik kesadaran tentang bahaya api. Seperti yang dikatakan oleh salah seorang petugas pemadam kebakaran bahwa api kecil bisa menjadi kawan sedangkan api besar bisa menjadi lawan. Dengan terjun langsung ke lapangan, siswa bisa melihat langsung benda-benda atau kegiatan yang ada di lokasi tujuan dan pengetahuan yang tidak mereka dapatkan di ruang kelas.

Storytelling 5

Collin Thinks Big

Collin Caterpillar and Sylvia Snail were crawling along the garden wall one sunny morning.

“Isn’t the world big?” remarked Collin as he gazed around.

“It’s huge, it’s enormous” agreed Sylvia, who thought a lot about such things inside her mind.

“It makes me feel so very small,” Collin said.

“But I know a way to change all that!” said Sylvia wisely.

So the two of them spent the rest of that morning collecting the tiniest things they could find.

Collin collected a crumb, a pea, a shell and a petal. Soon he had found a feather, a peanut, a button and a berry.

Sylvia brought back a drawing pin, a paper clip, a pen nib, a pin and a needle.

“Look! You’re almost a giant Collin!” said Sylvia.

“Funnily enough, how small these things are,” chuckled Collin, “and look how big I am!”

Storytelling 4

THE LION AND THE MOUSE

One day a lion slept in the jungle. A tiny mouse ran over the lion’s head and down his nose. The lion awoke with a loud roar. He was very angry. His paw caught the little mouse.

The lion opened his huge jaws to swallow the mouse “pardon me , O King, I beg of you.” Cried the frightened mouse.

“If you forgive me this time, I will never forget your kindness. I meant no harm and I certainly didn’t want to disturb your  majesty. If you let me stay alive, I can do you a good turn, too.”

The lion began to laugh. He laughed and laughed. “How could a tiny creature like you ever do anything to help me?” and he shook with laughter. “Oh well” he shrugged looking down at frightened mouse, “you’re not so much of a meal anyway.”

Then, he realised his paws from the mouse and the mouse quickly ran away.

Some time after this, some hunters, tried to capture the Lion alive. They set up rope nets in the jungle. The lion fell into the trap. He roared and thrashed.

His thunderous bellows sent through the jungle. The tiny mouse heard the lion’s roars.

“That may be the lion who once freed me” he said remembering his promise. And he ran to see whether he could help.

Discovering the sad lion, the mouse said to him “stop, stop! You must not roar. If you make so much noise, the hunters will come and capture you. I’ll get you out of this trap.”

With his sharp little teeth, the mouse gnawed at the ropes until they broke. The lion stepped out of the het and was free. The mouse said. “Now, was I not right?”

“Thank you, good mouse.” Said lion gently. “You did help me. I see now that kindness is always worth while.”

The Lost Caterpillar

Seven worms are walking happily. Their mother is leading them. They have just had their breakfast on a big tree near a river.

“Come on, children. Let’s go home,” Mama Worm says.

            Suddenly, a cricket says, “Your last child is ugly!” “Ugly?” asks Mama Worm. Then she looks at the child. He is not the same as her other children. “Hey, ugly!” she says, “You are not my child. Go away!”

The little brown worm walks away. He is very sad. When he is near a lake, he looks into the water.

“Oh, how ugly I am,” he cries.

“You are not ugly,” says a voice. “Oh, I find you, my child.”

The worm looks around. There is a beautiful big butterfly and her children. They all look the same as he.

“They may call you ugly,” says Butterfly.

“But you are the most beautiful child in the world. One day, you will turn into a beautiful butterfly.”
