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!

PRESCHOOLERS and their FAMILIES

  The FAMILY TREE helps the Preschoolers understand the relationship of each members of their family. This representation helps them understand the roles of the mother, father, sister, brother, grandmother, grandfather, aunt, uncle, and cousins play in their life history.  The Preschoolers continued to inquire about the personal histories of their family. They worked on their own Family Tree and have started SORTING OUT information that they have gathered from the interview with their parents, discussions and their own knowledge about the members of their family.          They have also made a visual representation of who lives in our home.  Before the Golden week, they did a series mapping exercise.  The place where they have lived or where they have travelled.

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...
