Growth



This week we continue inquiring about our personal histories. 

How much have we changed from when we were born to present.


We posted the baby photos of all the preschoolers side by side with their current photos. 
The students and teachers at school will guess, using the photos and looking for similarities who the preschoolers are. 


We will then use these experiment to find out more about the concept of 'change' and 'development' in our unit. 


We have also started collecting the pot flower that show the different milestones we have accomplished growing up. 
They will talk about their personal stories to all the students in class. 



We identified land and water forms and they realized that the water area is so much bigger than the land area! 



As part of their history, we also have looked at the map and located the country they were born. From this, we looked at the bigger land area which is the continents that make up the land forms. 



We identified the continents: Asia, Africa, North America, South America, Europe, Antartica, and Australia. 



We also identified which continents they are from and some of the teachers at school!



FInally, Ms. Faye brought our class pet and we named her, CUTEE!! 
She is going home this weekend with Luca and have a great time playing and doing things together!


We love making memories in preschool!

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...
