Personal Stories Come Alive


'Child' said the lion, '
I am telling you your story, not hers.' 
No one is told any story but their own.

Memory Box

The 'Memory Box' is designed to give the students their voice and choice on selecting the things that tell a story about them. 

It gives everyone a glimpse of their personal histories from the objects and memories shared to them by their parents. 


These stories told by their parents become alive and meaningful after sharing it with others. The students make connections, which grow into a beautiful narration of their life. 

And in that moment, their stories become a reality.

 

Stories and Objects
Two wonderful memories they brought from their childhood with them.


Clothes they wore when the were babies as they kept their mom and dad awake at night. 


A baby picture and a lucky coin.


Tiny shoes worn on their tiny feet.

Evidence of change.
Springboard to understanding the past and the connection with the present.

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...

A Day with Nature

From the moment we arrived at Rokkosan Pasteur, excitement was in the air.   The weather was perfect, the animals were curious, and of course the preschoolers couldn’t wait to explore! The highlight of the day? Meeting the  kids —not the classmates, but the adorable baby goats! The students were able to  feed, pet, and even cuddle the goats, horses, sheep . They were gentle and playful. Some preschoolers were a bit hesitant at first, but by the end of the visit, everyone was laughing and eagerly reaching out to connect with the animals. But this trip was about more than just the fun experience. The goal is to extend their learning about  animal care, natural habitat, and the effect of human to other iving things.  These experiences and observing how animals interact in a natural environment were learning in its most genuine form—engaging, memorable, and will have a long-lasting impact on their lives.    As the day came to an end, tired but happy p...
