Sorting Out


What should I do with the knowledge I have learned in this unit?

As this unit on 'Personal Histories' is about to end, the preschoolers are sorting out all the information they have gathered. They have organized their learning through the many works that they have done throughout the inquiry. 



Next week, they will share with the everyone their PERSONAL HISTORIES in the story they are writing. 


The different timelines they created will show the IMPORTANT EVENTS  that happened to them. These are also evidences of the PERSONAL CHANGES that occurred from birth to present.

The family tree that they created and the stories behind the different members of the family are also part of their stories and who they are.  Through this, we are hoping that they preschoolers will be able to understand that many factors affected their values, personalities and whatever they are right now.   


Integrating Art competences in the unit, preschoolers created a self-portrait. They looked at their features in a mirror as they draw their face. 


They learned the proper position of the facial features as well as shape and proportion. 



Learning about their personal lives and history are important to inspire young children to develop intellectual and emotional growth.

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...
