The Chinese folk tale story of “The Magic Paint Brush” is about a poor boy named Ma Liang, who was a great artist who happened to meet an old man who later gave him a
magical paintbrush. His one condition was to use it wisely. The magical paintbrush was indeed special as paintings became alive when Ma Liang used it to paint a picture.
Following the old man’s condition, he used his magic brush to help the people in need. He used it to help the hungry villagers, the poor lady who was in need of milk
for her baby, the poor boatman who needed a new boat and everyone else who were really in need of help. News spreads to the King’s palace and the boy was summoned by the greedy King, who wanted him to draw a golden palace. Ma Liang knew that he could not follow the King’s orders. So, he painted himself a horse to escape from the palace. This story has taught the children about some moral values like responsibility,
selfless acts, helping others and making wise choices.

Let’s retell the story!
Ma Liang was a poor boy who loved to draw and paint.
An old man came up to him and gave him a paintbrush.
It was a magic paint brush!
He was so amazed to see his drawings
came alive, but he also remembered the
old man’s words, “Use it wisely.”
Ma Liang went home to get some ink and drew with his
brush. He drew a bird on the wall and it became alive.
He used his magic brush to help all the people in
need.
Ma Liang did not want to give in to the greedy King’s
orders and rode away on his horse.

Let's make a bird mask together The birds are free to soar
The female bird said: "You have grown up and you have to learn to fly."
In the autumn of October, we ushered in the theme of "Little Birds Learn to Fly".
Through this theme, young children know the body structure of birds, the lifestyle of birds and the growth process. In addition, young children have a lot of fun activities
to get a deeper understanding of the information that this topic brings to us.
Finally, the teacher must remind everyone that this story requires us to have the
courage to learn every skill.
Jump and read words
We must train to balance before flying.
