WHAT HAPPENS IF....

Cause and Effect

Every problem has a solution and there can be many solutions to a problem. 
Every solution has a consequence and it might be a positive or a negative one. 

Because of this, It is important for the preschoolers to understand:

How our character and personality affect the choices we make.
OR 
How our character and personality may be affected by the choices we make.


This week, the preschoolers have been exposed to many different situations that show them the concept of cause and effect. 


They are beginning to understand the idea that 'CAUSE' is the REASON why something happened and that EFFECT is the 'RESULT' of what happened. 

 

They did a sorting activity wherein they decided if the photo is a cause, or, effect.  Once they have decided, they needed to provide a reason or a result. In this activity, the preschoolers realized that the photos CAN either be a cause or an effect. 


TActions towards others will receive a reaction.


and a certain effect towards others....

 

Some problems may be difficult to find a solution.
And it is always difficult to find the balance.


But when this happens, this is when our character and personality guide us -
we can either try again or just give up!

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. Learning about their differences creates a sense of appreciation and respect with people different from them.  "We are better at football!" "Our food is better!" But, it is not a competition of which country is better in football, bigger in size, or which hair color looks better.  It is knowing that they are all here together to celebrate everyone's similarities and differences.    As they become knowledgeable about the bigger picture of their own culture, they also learn to relate better to one an...

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...
