An annual school program called Pekan Kebangsaan which held every year around 🇮🇩 Independence week. They choose one or two provinces and learn all about the cultures. From their food, songs, nature, and everything.
This year goes to Papua and Maluku. What I thought it might be boring since they did it online, turned out to be so wrong.
Instead of boring, the impact stays longer and better than expected, for this girl.
Been singing two songs that taught which were Apuse and Rasa Sayange non stop daily for the past two weeks. Remembered each meaning of word in Apuse as explained in one of the sessions.
Yesterday, in between my nap time, I listened to countless singing sessions until her interest triggered me to take a children song book that have been kept for a long time in the drawer.
I gave a book where she could play both songs with the piano. She stayed there for a while, playing both songs while singing.
It reminded me of Ausubel Meaningful learning Theory in reality.
“Learned information is completely understood and can now be used to make connections with other previously known knowledge, aiding in further understanding and to higher level of application”.
