K1 Group Learning continues🍅🥒

by kinder on July 14, 2023

The days have been long and sunny, but K1s have continued to learn a lot in spite of the heat.

This week we divided the class into 2 groups for Group Learning Time. We learned more deeply about tomatoes and cucumbers. We used our 5 senses (感覚)to learn about these foods. Their different observations were very interesting. Some friends said, “Tomatoes are quiet”(トマトは静か), and “Tomatoes are plump!” (トマトはぷにゃぷにゃ) . Some friends said, “Cucumbers smell like muchi”(キュウリはムーチーのにおいがする), and “Cucumbers taste bitter.”(キュウリは苦い) We shared our observations and made poster cards of our senses.

Life Cycle

K1の子達に観察の結果を聞いてみたところ、たくさんの気づきがありました。また、五感に関する bumpy, smooth, rough, hard, soft, round, long, sweet, bitter, sour, spicy, salty, yummy, crunchy, crispy, juicy, quiet などの英単語も同時に学んでいます。そして、group learningで学んだことを、お互いに発表しました。
