Going Further



It is truly mind-blowing to  witness how these young learners progressed in their over all skills since they started in preschool! 


Proving that instilling responsibility is possible, even to young learners when they are motivated and given proper guidance. 

Throughout the unit, they have continuously pursued to finish their research that will be presented to the school community. 

During the 'finding out' stage, they have been immersed in many different experiences and concepts that helped them develop their understanding of the central idea and the key concepts. 

They also used different ATLs to develop the behavior and skills to engage in learning. 


They have  'sorted out' the information that are relevant to answer the unit questions. 


These past weeks, they are 'going further' and are completing their work to be presented. 

Something that are worth looking forward to see are..

The Learner Profile of the Community Helper,
The Tool Bag with all the things used by the community helper,
The Trans'FOOT'ation used in their work, 


Lastly, as writers, they are finally going to publish the Informative Book they wrote about the chose community helper. 


As we are nearing to the last stage of the Inquiry  Cycle, they answered the contrasting questions and gave describing words. 


What does a community without responsibilities look like? 

and,

What does a community with everyone doing their responsibilities look like?


What are our thoughts on this? 

Can we confidently say to the preschoolers that we are doing our responsibilities well enough to make our community - at home, school, or the bigger community run smoothly, or not?

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...

Entering the world of imagination

Children use imagination to write poems and create artworks in wonderfully instinctive and unfiltered ways.  They are not constrained by thinking or grammar rules and truly believe simple things in life.  This kind of imaginative freedom allows them to create words and images that we might not even consider. They use personal experience and reimagine things. They write freely without filter and   mix real life with fantasy to create rich, expressive writing. They can use this form of writing to develop self-confidence and connections with themselves and others.  In Artwork, they use their creative imagination to create symbolic representation that we, as adults, could never have imagined.  Children represent the world how they feel it, not just how they see it.  Their artworks become a portal to an entirely new worlds. In this unit on  how we express ourselves,  preschoolers will be encouraged to use: Open-ended materials (like...
