Working Together

TAKING ACTION

The students are keeping in mind the importance of plants to all living things.

Plants - being the ONLY one that can make its own food,

and

Plants - being the ONLY one that gives us the air or oxygen to live.

We have to do something to preserve the plants!

They started bringing all sorts of seeds to plant at school.

To watermelon seeds, onion stalks, flowers, grapes..

They chose a spot where the plants can get sunshine.

They dug the soil.

Put in the seeds.

And watered them.

They did everything that the plants need in order to grow.

Students will take turns watering the plants daily.

Hopefully these tiny seeds will show us some sprouts before the end of the school year in Preschool.

HOW WE EXPRESS OURSELVES

For the unit on How we express ourselves, the preschoolers used their imagination to create different art work on the ipad.

They chose their own subject and used the different tools on the drawing app to represent it.

They they uploaded their works on seesaw.

And this year, all the Lower Primary students are collaborating to create a video presentation in connection to the unit on How we express ourselves.

Students from Preschool, Grade 1 and Grade 2 were grouped and they are working on one presentation.

The story was written by the Preschoolers based on their unit on Imagination.

Grade 2 will create the props and and the settings from their unit on Visual arts.

While the Grade 1 students will work on the lights and sound effects based on their unit on Lights and Sounds.

It is a wonderful opportunity to see how all the students in the Lower Primary can work and lead their learning together.

We will see the output before the end of the school year!

Our Family

Community is a place where people live together. Our Family Our School Our Community The preschoolers identified themselves as an important member or these groups. Roles are parts that everyone play. We have the Superheroes like Batman, Spiderman and other characters in movies. But what are the things that they do? Those are their responsibilities. Just like us, we all have our responsibilities. The Family Family is the smallest group in a community. Some families are big. Some families are small. But they live together in the same house and do things together and take care of each other. Using their puppets the preschoolers imagined and created a story of things that they did as a family. They had so much fun presenting in the class, changing their voices creating background sounds and simply telling their stories! We also played the Yes, No, Maybe corners where the students decided if they agreed or disagreed with the questions given to them about ...
