Picture Walk




Picture Walk


As part of the FINDING OUT stage in the Inquiry Cycle, preschoolers asked questions and posted their wonderings in our Wondering Wall. These young readers used their different skills and initiated how to help themselves in finding answers to their inquiries.


A strategy they learned is through a PICTURE WALK. 
This strategy helps young learners develop reading skills. It involves looking at the pictures in a book to familiarize themselves with the information. 

True enough, It builds interest and excitement to the preschoolers! 


The activity encouraged students to be curious about important concepts and vocabulary that will help them later on as they start their research about community helpers.


This also students develop SOCIAL SKILLS as they communicated their ideas and without them realizing, made different connections such as:

Text to text 
a connection from another book, stories, movies, or songs they heard

Text to self 
a connection to their own knowledge or experiences

Text to world 
a connection made to a community or what happened around them


We also delved deeper into the key concept on RESPONSIBILITY and together watched the interview they did with one of the members in their family.


We listed down all the responsibilities mentioned. We were able to find out the common responsibilities, the most enjoyable responsibilities and something that we hope could be a shared responsibility in the household. 


As a springboard to next group in the community where the preschoolers belong to, we talked about our friend, 'NOAH'. 
Noah represented each of them and the situations that would make them uncomfortable or sad, as a child. 

Now, the Preschoolers' task is to find out ways to help Noah solve his many problems.

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...

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...
