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 the responsibilities of the different members in the family. 


Then, they drew the different things I DO with my family. 


And the things that I WISH we do as a family. 




The preschoolers are spending a lot of time becoming thinkers, realizing that not all families are the same. But there are some things that are common to all such as: Enjoying meals together, traveling together and spending time together. 



Next week we will FIND OUT more about the responsibilities in the family and the importance of making sure we all do our part in the family.

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...

Meet the Animals

Students have been actively engaged in preparing for our upcoming Animal Exhibit, showcasing their learning through research, creativity, and collaboration. Each student selected an animal of interest, explored its habitat, diet, and unique adaptations, and created a visual display to share their findings. This week the preschoolers worked in teams to group animals according to their natural habitats—such as grassland, fresh water, polar region, ocean, and forest.  Together, they collaborated to research the features and designed a small-scale habitat that reflect the unique features of each ecosystem. This group project fostered teamwork, problem-solving, and creativity as students and teachers combined their knowledge and ideas to create cohesive, informative, and visually engaging designs.  The final displays beautifully showcase both the diversity of animal life and the power of collaboration. As part of the preparation, preschoolers will practice presentation skills and t...
