Preschoolers are Finding Out

The preschoolers are FINDING OUT more information about their school community. They looked at photos of some of the people who work at DSKI. They coloured in the emojis to signify how familiar they are with the person in the photo.

They realised that they did not know a lot of the people in the pictures and what they do for the school. They toured around the school and searched for them and to see where they are and what they do in school.

As INQUIRERS, they also asked questions to understand the roles and responsibilities of the people working in the school community.

"What do you do?"

"Do you like your job? Why do you like it?"

"Why are you a teacher?"

"What makes you important in our school?"

"What are your responsibilities as a student?"

"Why do you help us?"

"Why do you have to clean the whole school?"

How are these people helping each other make the DSKI community run smoothly? We'll find out next week!

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...

Meet the Animals

Students have been actively engaged in preparing for our upcoming Animal Exhibit, showcasing their learning through research, creativity, and collaboration. Each student selected an animal of interest, explored its habitat, diet, and unique adaptations, and created a visual display to share their findings. This week the preschoolers worked in teams to group animals according to their natural habitats—such as grassland, fresh water, polar region, ocean, and forest. Together, they collaborated to research the features and designed a small-scale habitat that reflect the unique features of each ecosystem. This group project fostered teamwork, problem-solving, and creativity as students and teachers combined their knowledge and ideas to create cohesive, informative, and visually engaging designs. The final displays beautifully showcase both the diversity of animal life and the power of collaboration. As part of the preparation, preschoolers will practice presentation skills and t...
