Celebrating Growth

Sorting Out our Personal Histories by inquiring about the other members of our extended family.

As we learn about the people in our ancestry, we will discover what, where, who of how it led to the preschoolers.

They will see their connection with these people as to who they are and later learn a bit of information about them.

They will also unravel some of the common traits and abilities they personally have. This might have been influenced not directly by their parents, but could also be from the other members of their family.

The students are encouraged to explore their creativity when creating a visual representation of their Family Tree.

A solar system, garden, fruit-bearing tree, or the sky - they were risk-takers and took different ways to express their originality.

They have also worked on a Venn Diagram to explore similarities and differences among themselves.

By asking questions to their partners, they were able to learn more about each other. This helped develop their communication skills and critical thinking skills.

Socially, they were also able to communicate and enjoy working with other students that they have not usually played or worked with.

An evidence that they are changing and growing up as responsible children.

We also enjoyed a wonderful gardening activity this morning outside the green patch!!

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.

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...

Field Trip

FIELD TRIP Children who experience a holistic development during their younger school years grow up to become global citizens. Taking the students out of the classroom is important because it provides a balance between indoor and outdoor activities. It prepares them for what it is like in the real world. As part of our unit on How The World Works which focuses on the science of living things, the preschoolers went out on a field trip to Rokkosan Pasture. In here, the students were immersed and had access to a different environment, the farm habitat together with the animals who live there. They experienced interactive learning by feeding and getting up close with these friendly and hungry goats. They observed how the animals shared space and played inside their homes. They were able to make connections on how they, as preschoolers socially interact with one another inside the classroom. The parents who joined the trip also became the teachers a...
