Who is wrong?
This is a question at the end of a story book.
It's the school's selection of books for home reading.
The story is about a mouse who finds a cake on a table.
It jumps up & eats. It's so happy that it begins to sing.
And, the mouse's songs arouses a cat's attention.
The mouse eventually runs away with it's long tail broken.
There are a couples of questions on the final page.
But this question really bothers me.
Shall we condemn the mouse stealing?
Is it wrong to be too happy & excited when you have something really nice?
Or, the mouse is not alert enough?
I don't know the answer and I don't want to provide an answer.
I keep silent on what I'm thinking, just ask iza what she thinks.
" The cat is wrong. It hurts the mouse." Iza said.
I don't think Iza gets the "right" answer but she's sweet.

This afternoon, iza is working with her new school book.
She needs to put the stickers under the right catagories.
When she picks up the party hat sticker, she hesitates.
She put it under the round shapes.
" It is round, not triangular!" Iza said.
But the sticker is cut into a triangular shape.
I guess the "model" answer should be triangle.
Iza get a sensible observation & reasoning.
A cone is neither a circle nor a triangle.
Don't they think a kid of 4Y will question this??

Iza created this silly work when she's having grapes after lunch this afternoon. She sticks the grapes with double side tape. She said they are the 3 little piggies.

"Lower is better!"
Iza said when we were going down the escalator one day last week.
"Why?" I puzzled.
"When we fall, we only fall downwards, we will not fall upwards.
It's safe at the lower side." Iza explained.
When we settled down. I told her," There was a guy whom also noticed that things only fall down, don't fall 'up'. And, he asked why.
He eventually discovered one of the law of Nature. He's Newton..."
"Is Newton God??" Iza asked.
The air was filled with laughters.

Since last Jan, Iza starts her Kindermusik class. The class is held inside the Campus of Chinese University, but not run by it.
Iza loves the class, the campus, the playground.
