PRESCHOOLERS and The Things They Value

Literacy: Writer's Workshop

The preschoolers wrote a personal narrative to tell a story about the important milestones and events that happened in their life. 

Following the Writer's Workshop, they planned, wrote a draft, edited and wrote the final story. 

 

 


Here is the finished book ready for publishing!

Unit of Inquiry (UOI)
Celebrations, Cultures, Values, and Beliefs

The Preschoolers explored different celebrations. During the picture walk, they signed up their names on the ones that they celebrate with their family. 

 

We even played charade and acted out words that are connected to our topic! 
The preschoolers had so much fun!

COAT OF ARMS
... The shield of our family...
... The symbol of things that we value in our family...


The Preschoolers initially created a word cloud of ideas. These words are to what they believe are things that are important in their family. They then chose the top five and drew a symbol that will represent it. 


 

This activity was a great opportunity for the students to reflect on their own perspectives about their own family. It made them think and realise through their experiences and relationship with their family, the value that will influence them as they grow and change.

The common values that we all share in our Preschool Families are:
love, food, family, education, sharing, caring, and sports! 

It only shows what a balanced individual Preschoolers would become in the future!

Check out our Preschool SEESAW for a close up photo of their COAT OF ARMS.

Night of the Student Led Conference

Preschoolers practice for their upcoming Student Led Conference (SLC) by engaging in mock sessions with peers and teachers. These practices help the students build confidence as they learn to talk about their artwork, classroom routines, and personal growth.  Using the checklist prompted by visuals like portfolios and photo displays, preschoolers explain their learning journey in simple, meaningful ways. Practicing ahead of the actual conference allows them to feel prepared and proud to share with their families.  It fosters communication skills, independence, and a strong sense of ownership over their learning — all foundational for future academic and social success. During the actual Student Led Conference, preschoolers experienced a range of emotions. Some felt nervous facing their parents, while others were visibly tired or overwhelmed by the attention.  A few needed gentle support to stay engaged. On the other hand, many confidently shared their work, explained clas...

Field Trip

FIELD TRIP Children who experience a holistic development during their younger school years grow up to become global citizens.  Taking the students out of the classroom  is important because it provides a balance between indoor and outdoor activities. It prepares them for what it is like in the real world.  As part of our unit on How The World Works which focuses on the science of living things, the preschoolers went out on a field trip to Rokkosan Pasture. In here, the students were immersed and had access to a different environment,  the farm habitat together with the animals who live there.  They experienced interactive learning by feeding and getting up close with these friendly and hungry goats. They observed how the animals shared space and played inside their homes. They were able to make connections on how they, as preschoolers socially interact with one another inside the classroom.   The parents who joined the trip also became the teachers a...
