CULTURE WEEK


What a wonderful way to end our unit on "Understanding personal cultures, beliefs, and traditions, help us celebrate similarities and differences".


The preschoolers shared with their parents their exhibition regarding who they are. 
A way to show how they have developed their different ATL skills. 


Showcasing their COMMUNICATION SKILLS, these young learners tried their best to speak confidently in front of the parents and other students. 

 

They communicated the information they researched about. Made clear connections to themselves and their personal experiences. 


They also demonstrated their developing SOCIAL SKILLS through active listening as they engaged in positive interaction with the audience. 
They built rapport with the audience and other students. 


But what stood out the most was how each student showed their passion in learning about everyone's culture, beliefs, and traditions - or simply WHO THEY ARE.  


It wasn't only about themselves, but everyone in the class. This action clearly demonstrated that they have celebrated everyone else's similarities and differences. 


Consequently, they showed their increasing THINKING SKILLS through their pieces of work and answering the questions from the audience. 



This exhibition marked the first step to these young learners' many more successful inquiries as they developed themselves to become lifelong learners. 





MORE CELEBRATION!!


In our year-long unit on IMAGINATION, the students also prepared for their upcoming assembly after the break. 


They have been busily working with their costumes and practicing for the presentation. 


They worked collaboratively with other students to prepare for the assembly.


Mark your calendars on the 27th MARCH, Thursday Preschool Assembly!

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...

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 ...
