Dear Mr Mah
Feedback on playground in tampines
I am a student from sec 2 express .I am writing a letter to you to give you several feedback on the playgrounds in tampines. After observing the playgrounds in tampines I realize that there are some good points and bad points about the playgrounds in tampines. Well I think that the overall appearance and facilities is quite okay, but I think that there is still room for improvement. But we have this project which made us think that we can make a playground a better place for the disabilities and normal children
Our group had purposely choose bright colour such as red and light blue instead of dull colour such as black. We thought of this solution because we think that this can make the terminal illness kid to think of the positive side .The playground design by my group is quite special from the rest of the playground in tampines. Actually part of our ideas are extracted from the book bridge to terabithia and part of it is our group ideas.
Since the terminal illness is going to pass away soon so I think that special playground should be specially design to let those kid enjoy their remaining day.
The playground can be design to make it bigger and on the other hand more interesting.
Thank you for your attention.
Your faithfully,

SUGGESTIONS TO IMPROVE PLAYGROUNDS IN TAMPINES
Currently I find that there are lots of playgrounds in Tampines. Some of them look beautiful and fun to play with but most of them are actually quite dangerous. Some of them are badly vandalized with unruly words and some other can be very badly littered and dirty.
Today I am about to provide with you some suggestions which I hope will be able to improve the conditions of playgrounds in Tampines.
The playgrounds in Tampines nowadays are meant only for normal children without any problems but what about those children with Terminal illnesses? These children will not be able to play because of the way the playground was built. The flooring of the playground can sometimes be quite rough and some of it is pealed off. The new playgrounds should have flooring made up of a softer material which will help to ‘cushion’ you when you fall. There should be shelters around the playground to rest if they are tired. When a playground is built there should be sufficient space for kids to run about when they play. The new playgrounds should also have chairs for parents to sit while they watch their children play. The playgrounds should always be well maintained and cleaned so that children of all ages will want to play in it.Our group had purposely choose bright colour such as red and light blue instead of dull colour such as black. We thought of this solution because we think that this can make the terminal illness kid to think of the positive side .
If you would like to see a mini model of an interesting playground to me you can go to this website: www.literature2e6group8.blogspot.com

Dear Mr Mah
Subject: FEEDBACK AND SUGGESTIONS FOR TAMPINES PLAYGROUND
I am a student from Pasir Ris Secondary School and I notice that there are many playgrounds in Tampines Area. I notice that they are well-decorated and have proof to be safe. They have served as a heaven for children since I was a baby.
Now, I’m going to share with you a project me and my friends did recently regarding the construction of a playground for children with terminal illnesses. We considered the various factors involved in the safety of such children and tried to make them more fun and enticing. We found that children were more attracted to more complex playground facilities and yet facilities that are safe.
From my research on Singapore's playground and other playgrounds that are for such children, I discovered that the playground in Tampines have less of such enticing playground facilities. Furthermore, most of the playground in Tampines have been vandalized and filled with vulgar or unruly words. Some of them are even dirty and may post a harm to children who play them.
I believe that the playgrounds in Tampines can be further improved by constructing more enticing playground facilities that are not harmful to children. There should also be a signpost indicating that such playgrounds are only for children within a certain range of age. This is to minimize children from getting hurt and the playground from being damaged. There should also be more litter bins around playgrounds so that children will not be hurt from them, like slipping from a banana peel. I hope that my suggestion and feedback would be of your greatest assistance and hope that Tampines playgrounds will be safer and more fun!
Yours Sincerely

Dear Mr Mah
Feedback on playgrounds in tampines and how to improve them
About the playgrounds in tampines, I think that they are okay but they only lack the things that the needy need like more efficient playgrounds where all of them can play in like lets say a maze. But we had this project that made us think of building a playground so that more children with disabilities can use.
My group was selected to design a playground for children with terminal illnesses. As these are terminal illnesses, we should all know that these children are soon going to pass away. So we thought that as they are soon going to pass away, we decided to build the playground that can let those kids enjoy they remaining days.
We thought that as they should enjoy the remaining days in their lives, we made the floor rubber so when they fall down, they won’t get hurt. We chose bright colours not dark colours as we thought that as they are living their remaining days, we should brighten up their lives. We did not choose dark colours as I did not want them to feel sad.
My feedback on the playgrounds in tampines is that they are only made for normal kids like me. I think that they should be made so that all different children can all play in it. It should be made so that all can enjoy maybe even adults! The people who use these playgrounds should enjoy it but as the playgrounds in Singapore are made only for the normal kids, many people can’t enjoy them.
The playgrounds can be improved by making them bigger and more suitable for other kids and maybe adults. I hope that after you read this letter of mine you will re-build the playgrounds so that they can be played by all.
Thank you for your kind attention.

Dear Mr Mah
Feedback about the playgrounds in tampines suggestions to improve them.
I am a sec 2 student from PRSS.Recently,my school had just move from its temporary building at bedok.Currently ,we are at tampines street 21.I noticed that there are quite a lot of playground in tampines area.But I realised that all the facilities in the playground are not suitable for the children with disabilities.,children that we must pay more attention to.
My friends and I had designed a playground that is specially design for the children with terminal illness.We know that these childrens with terminal illness wont live long.So,our objective is to design and build the playground to let them enjoy and live their life to the fullest during their remaining days.
We use pure rubber for the flooring of the playground.this is to let them play without injuring themselves.We also include a maze inside our playground.There are reasons why we create the maze.In the real maze,u will find that it is difficult to go out of the maze.We can apply this to life.Life is not always easy as what the normal people will always think.We chose bright colurs to design the playground as we thought that so that they would “brighten up” their lives during their remaining days.
I thought that the current playground is designed only for normal kids.So I hope you will take into consideration ni building a playground designed by us.
Yours faithfully,

2.The Tree House
--For the tree house we plan to use 150k to make the marvellous treehouse as we plan to use recycled plastic coated with PVCS so that it will be more durable and also can be used over a long period of time.
3.The Special floor in the Playground
--We plan to spend 250k on it because we plan to use pure rubber to cover the ground so that when the terminal illness kid fall, they will not injured themself and they can climb up and continue to play again
4.The Monkey Bar
--We plan to spend about 39k on the swing because we plan to use stainless steel to make the monkey bar and coated with wood so that it will allow the kid to have a better grip on the monkey bar.
5.The Shallow River Surrounding The Playground
--We plan to use 250k to build the river and also maintaining it.
6.The Chairs
--We plan to spend approximately about 10k to build the chairs.
7.The Maze
--We plan to use 140k on the maze because we want to use cement to build the whole maze and we also plan to buil a shelter on top of the maze.
In total we spend a total of 999k to build the playground and this cost actually tally with the maximium cost and we actually make full use of it .Although this may sounds quite expensive,but most impotantly, it will surely be enjoyed by the terminal illness kid.
The explanation of our features in our playground is after this post@@@@@@@@@@@@
A Brief Introduction:
Design Specification
The playground is specially designed by our group member which consist of Jun Yu, Shahrazaf, Phay Kang, Destin and Ahmad.The facilities of the playground is specially Design for terminally illness kids to enjoy themselves with the guidance of their parents.
1. The Chairs
---The chairs is for parents to sit down and watch their kids play.The terminal illness kids can also sit down and rest if they feel tired.
2. The Trees
---The trees are actually acting as a forest in the literature text.
3. The Playground Facilities
---The Playground consist of the swing, a wonderful slide,and a see-saw etc.These are facilities for the kids to enjoy themselves
4. The board surrounding the Styrofoam board
---The board which is surrounding the Styrofoam board act as a river in the novel which Jess and Leslie use to cross to go in to terabithia.
5.The house
---The house is actually acting as the tree house which Jess and Leslie usually visit when they go to terabithia.
5. The Maze
---The maze is a very interesting place where the children can spend their time there beside playing the playground.
What we did for the project:
1st week: We did research of various playgrounds.
2nd week: We started our blogsite but at 1st it didnt start so well.
3rd week: We made our 3D model.
4th week: We found ideas and posted pictures into the blogsite.
5th week: We made our playground nicer and posted our reflection of the 3D model in the blogsite.
Our playground construction requirements
-Adults should always supervise children during trips to the playground. Young children, and even older ones, often do not have the proper judgment to identify unsafe situations that proper supervision can help prevent. In case there are injuries, an adult should be on hand to administer first-aid immediately.
-Make sure playground equipment is age-appropriate. Most equipment manufactured today is made for two age groups: children from 2 to 5 years old, and children from 5 to 12 years old. Since 1994, manufacturers are required to have a sticker placed on each piece of equipment indicating the appropriate age group it is designed for. Looking for this sticker can help you judge whether it is age-appropriate for your child.
-Play areas for younger children should be separate from those of older children. To reduce the risk of injury, children under the age of 5 should not play on equipment taller than four feet. Equipment for 5 to 12-year-olds should not be taller than eight feet.
-Surfaces under playground equipment should be soft enough to absorb falls. Recommended surfaces include wood chips or mulch, sand, pea gravel, rubber, and rubber-like materials that are maintained at a depth of 12 inches. Other safe alternatives include rubber mats, synthetic turf, or other artificial materials. Concrete, grass, blacktop, and packed surfaces are considered unsafe.
-Surface materials should cover "fall zones" surrounding equipment. This usually requires a minimum of six feet in all directions from the equipment.
Playground equipment should be adequately spaced apart from one another to prevent overcrowding.
-Swings, seesaws, and other equipment with moving parts should be located in areas that are separate from the rest of the playground in order to prevent children from having to cross directly in front of or behind swings to reach them.
-Make sure equipment has been specifically designed for playground use.
This is a playground near my home~~
we think that this playground has some resemblance to the bridge to terabithia. The trees represents the 2 trees where a rope is tied to 1 and both Jesse and Leslie swinged together.Perhaps,we can locate the trees at another location and construct 2 loops each at 1 tree. The thick ropes will then be tied to each loop and a knot will be tied at the bottom of the rope,so that children can step on it and swing around. The rope will not be too high, so that the children can swing on it. Parents should guide they're children .
Why Do Some People Use Residential Play Structures ?
Partly through ignorance, and partly because of the cost.Commercial play equipment is normally VERY expensive, which is why people often take a gamble and purchase residential playground equipment - play equipment that they are simply not covered for in the event of an accident. Deliberately purchasing equipment where you are not covered in the event of a child having an accident seems to me to be a HUGE gamble. But up until now that was the choice.But most impotantly it is safe and can be used by young kids.
This is an example of a playground for children with terminal illnesses
This playground is made up of 3 covered platforms or look outs connected by ramps, slopes and bridges all wheelchair accessible. Each platform is covered in vibrant coloured outdoor carpet. Also incorporates a slide, fireman’s pole, rope tunnel, trapeze rings, pull-up rope and ramp, finger mazes and sensory panels, a glockenspiel, rain stick and musical chimes.

Our colour co-ordinations
Color Meaning
Red Color Red
Red is the color of fire and blood, so it is associated with energy, war, danger, strength, power, determination as well as passion, desire, and love.
Red is a very emotionally intense color. It enhances human metabolism, increases respiration rate, and raises blood pressure. It has very high visibility, which is why stop signs, stoplights, and fire equipment are usually painted red. In heraldry, red is used to indicate courage. It is a color found in many national flags.
Red brings text and images to the foreground. Use it as an accent color to stimulate people to make quick decisions; it is a perfect color for 'Buy Now' or 'Click Here' buttons on Internet banners and websites. In advertising, red is often used to evoke erotic feelings (red lips, red nails, red-light districts, 'Lady in Red', etc). Red is widely used to indicate danger (high voltage signs, traffic lights). This color is also commonly associated with energy, so you can use it when promoting energy drinks, games, cars, items related to sports and high physical activity.
Light red represents joy, sexuality, passion, sensitivity, and love.
Pink signifies romance, love, and friendship. It denotes feminine qualities and passiveness.
Dark red is associated with vigor, willpower, rage, anger, leadership, courage, longing, malice, and wrath.
Brown suggests stability and denotes masculine qualities.
Reddish-brown is associated with harvest and fall.
Orange Color Orange
Orange combines the energy of red and the happiness of yellow. It is associated with joy, sunshine, and the tropics. Orange represents enthusiasm, fascination, happiness, creativity, determination, attraction, success, encouragement, and stimulation.
To the human eye, orange is a very hot color, so it gives the sensation of heat. Nevertheless, orange is not as aggressive as red. Orange increases oxygen supply to the brain, produces an invigorating effect, and stimulates mental activity. It is highly accepted among young people. As a citrus color, orange is associated with healthy food and stimulates appetite. Orange is the color of fall and harvest. In heraldry, orange is symbolic of strength and endurance.
Orange has very high visibility, so you can use it to catch attention and highlight the most important elements of your design. Orange is very effective for promoting food products and toys.
Dark orange can mean deceit and distrust.
Red-orange corresponds to desire, sexual passion, pleasure, domination, aggression, and thirst for action.
Gold evokes the feeling of prestige. The meaning of gold is illumination, wisdom, and wealth. Gold often symbolizes high quality.
Yellow Color Yellow
Yellow is the color of sunshine. It's associated with joy, happiness, intellect, and energy.
Yellow produces a warming effect, arouses cheerfulness, stimulates mental activity, and generates muscle energy. Yellow is often associated with food. Bright, pure yellow is an attention getter, which is the reason taxicabs are painted this color. When overused, yellow may have a disturbing effect; it is known that babies cry more in yellow rooms. Yellow is seen before other colors when placed against black; this combination is often used to issue a warning. In heraldry, yellow indicates honor and loyalty. Later the meaning of yellow was connected with cowardice.
Use yellow to evoke pleasant, cheerful feelings. You can choose yellow to promote children's products and items related to leisure. Yellow is very effective for attracting attention, so use it to highlight the most important elements of your design. Men usually perceive yellow as a very lighthearted, 'childish' color, so it is not recommended to use yellow when selling prestigious, expensive products to men – nobody will buy a yellow business suit or a yellow Mercedes. Yellow is an unstable and spontaneous color, so avoid using yellow if you want to suggest stability and safety. Light yellow tends to disappear into white, so it usually needs a dark color to highlight it. Shades of yellow are visually unappealing because they loose cheerfulness and become dingy.
Dull (dingy) yellow represents caution, decay, sickness, and jealousy.
Light yellow is associated with intellect, freshness, and joy.
Green Color Green
Green is the color of nature. It symbolizes growth, harmony, freshness, and fertility. Green has strong emotional correspondence with safety. Dark green is also commonly associated with money.
Green has great healing power. It is the most restful color for the human eye; it can improve vision. Green suggests stability and endurance. Sometimes green denotes lack of experience; for example, a 'greenhorn' is a novice. In heraldry, green indicates growth and hope. Green, as opposed to red, means safety; it is the color of free passage in road traffic.
Use green to indicate safety when advertising drugs and medical products. Green is directly related to nature, so you can use it to promote 'green' products. Dull, darker green is commonly associated with money, the financial world, banking, and Wall Street.
Dark green is associated with ambition, greed, and jealousy.
Yellow-green can indicate sickness, cowardice, discord, and jealousy.
Aqua is associated with emotional healing and protection.
Olive green is the traditional color of peace.
Blue Color Blue
Blue is the color of the sky and sea. It is often associated with depth and stability. It symbolizes trust, loyalty, wisdom, confidence, intelligence, faith, truth, and heaven.
Blue is considered beneficial to the mind and body. It slows human metabolism and produces a calming effect. Blue is strongly associated with tranquility and calmness. In heraldry, blue is used to symbolize piety and sincerity.
You can use blue to promote products and services related to cleanliness (water purification filters, cleaning liquids, vodka), air and sky (airlines, airports, air conditioners), water and sea (sea voyages, mineral water). As opposed to emotionally warm colors like red, orange, and yellow; blue is linked to consciousness and intellect. Use blue to suggest precision when promoting high-tech products.
Blue is a masculine color; according to studies, it is highly accepted among males. Dark blue is associated with depth, expertise, and stability; it is a preferred color for corporate America.
Avoid using blue when promoting food and cooking, because blue suppresses appetite. When used together with warm colors like yellow or red, blue can create high-impact, vibrant designs; for example, blue-yellow-red is a perfect color scheme for a superhero.
Light blue is associated with health, healing, tranquility, understanding, and softness.
Dark blue represents knowledge, power, integrity, and seriousness.
Purple Color Purple
Purple combines the stability of blue and the energy of red. Purple is associated with royalty. It symbolizes power, nobility, luxury, and ambition. It conveys wealth and extravagance. Purple is associated with wisdom, dignity, independence, creativity, mystery, and magic.
According to surveys, almost 75 percent of pre-adolescent children prefer purple to all other colors. Purple is a very rare color in nature; some people consider it to be artificial.
Light purple is a good choice for a feminine design. You can use bright purple when promoting children's products.
Light purple evokes romantic and nostalgic feelings.
Dark purple evokes gloom and sad feelings. It can cause frustration.
White Color White
White is associated with light, goodness, innocence, purity, and virginity. It is considered to be the color of perfection.
White means safety, purity, and cleanliness. As opposed to black, white usually has a positive connotation. White can represent a successful beginning. In heraldry, white depicts faith and purity.
In advertising, white is associated with coolness and cleanliness because it's the color of snow. You can use white to suggest simplicity in high-tech products. White is an appropriate color for charitable organizations; angels are usually imagined wearing white clothes. White is associated with hospitals, doctors, and sterility, so you can use white to suggest safety when promoting medical products. White is often associated with low weight, low-fat food, and dairy products.
This is our 3D model reflections~~
Ahmad 2e6
Our group has discussed how we are going to make the 3D model playground.This 3d model playground,some of the items used will be based on the novel itself.The material we used are ice-cream sticks,plasticine,styrofoam board,cardboard,superglue,glue and last but not least paint.The reason we used all this cheap items is because we have a low budget.
We made 2 trees.This is related to bridge to terabithia because bridge to terabithia is more to the natural environment.But in this 3d model playground we only choosed to make 2 trees because if we are going to surround the playground with trees,it wil be a bit dull.At first we planned to use real twigs and leafs to make the trees but we dont think this plan will work.Next item we made that are related to bridge to terabithia is a 'house' which is quite tall and needs to be climbed.In the novel this is the place where Jesse and Leslie always relax themselves.
Other things that we made are swing,a monkey bar,a playground slide,and benches.We surround the playground with fences.The background we made as colourful as possible.The whole process took us for approximately 2.5 hours to complete.And its very tiring so please give us more marks for our effort

-Our group is doing on children with terminal illnesses, so we have special planes with railings and we make the space wide. There are the usual facilities for children and other facilities like the rope swinging on both trees. The wide space is to allow children who sits on the wheelchair to be able to fit through and also play, although they will not be able to play all of the facilities. For new facilities, those children would be able to play because the facilities are not dangerous and are safe. The rope swinging for example are only limited to a certain height where it posed no threat to those children.
