Unit on How We Organise Ourselves

This week the Preschoolers started with the first unit on the Transdiciplinary Theme "How We Organise Ourselves." 

In this unit, the students will gain a deeper understanding as they look into the Central Idea Roles and Responsibilities make organisations run smoothly.  

Throughout the inquiry process, preschoolers will focus on the Lines of Inquiry: 

  • Various communities we belong to
  • Roles / Jobs have responsibilities 
  • Different jobs in the community
They will be knowledgeable on the Key Concepts on Form, Function and Responsibilities. 

To help the preschoolers approach their learning, they will focus acquiring the skills on self-management, social and research. Int the end, the preschoolers will develop on the Learner Profile Attributes of being principled, caring and thinkers.


TUNING IN:

The preschoolers unlocked words related to our unit. 
  • Roles are the character, the part played by a person. Who they are.  
  • Responsibilities are what people do and their jobs.
They shared a family photo and explained to the class the roles and responsibilities of each member in the family. 

 


 

 
 
  

For IT, they were so proud to have experienced turning on and logging in to their google account! They also scanned their code and logged in into Seesaw. 




So much things done this week for the Perky Preschoolers! 
Next week will be another week of Tuning In activities.

How The World Works

PRESCHOOL ASSEMBLY What a beautiful way to end our unit on celebration, to start a new unit on growth, and to connect it to our unit on imagination. As we begin our new unit on how the world works, the preschool students went around the school premises to list down living things that they saw around them.  As their curiosity kicked in they got so excited and started thinking exactly what living things are.  At first, some characteristics they mentioned about living things were: move  eat drink grow drive cars talk take a bath more But what really is the difference between living and non-living things?  Back in the classroom, we revisited their list and narrowed down the characteristics of living things into these important traits: they eat and drink (food and water) they grow or change they reproduce (make new living things) They agreed that even if something is moving (like robots or cars) it doesn't mean that they are living things. Trees do not move but they eat, ...

Our Country

Know your country. Appreciate your culture.  It is important to know your country's culture to also understand who you are.  As young researchers, the preschoolers looked for information and facts about their country.  They looked at the flag and what it signifies, the population, the capital, food, and popular places. This activity helps them develop cultural awareness which is important as they begin to understand that they came from different backgrounds.

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...
