K2 Fun Day 9.22.2022

K2 friends had many fun and exciting activities in September one of those is K2 Fun Day which has become one of their precious memory in their Kinder life! Before the event, teachers and K2 friends decided on the activities and schedule for that day together. After that, we prepared all the materials and decorations.

We made our original lanterns that we used on that night!

We also made our original tie dye shirt. Some of them experience washing clothes for the first time so they said, “It is difficult to squeeze! My hands hurt!” However, we look at it as their learning experience and good way to develop their fine motor skills, so please let them help you at home as well.

The day before the event, Mr. Teruya (てるやのおじさん) taught them how to make fire and assemble woods for the bonfire.

Finally, September 22nd came! We enjoyed obstacle relay, word challenge, soccer, dodgeball, K2 (Talent) Show and bonfire. Please watch the video below.
K2の子どもたちはこのイベントのために、友達同士協力して計画、準備を行ってきました♪
楽しいK2 FUNDAY でした!ご協力ありがとうございました。

It was a wonderful day indeed!

AMICUS FOREST Adventure

We are lucky to have had the chance to through the forest.

The most enjoyable part of it is that we have seen and caught many insects. We learned different kinds and names of INSECTS.

After that, we had the privilege to learn about some insects in Okinawa and ask more questions.

Thank you Mr. Naka for sharing with us your passion about insects. We love how you shared with us your interest about insects from your childhood, your experiences about insects and your knowledge about insects through your research. We really had fun today!

Fun Time with Mr. Teruya

K1 Nature Crafting with Mr. Teruya #2

After a short absence, we were happy to be back together again. Today we enjoyed making crafts together with Mr. Teruya. We used pinecones to make kendama toys. Mr. Teruya encouraged K1s to think of how to use recycled materials (used containers, etc.) to make interesting and fun crafts instead of just throwing them away. Please help your child to think creatively about recyclable goods at home.

K2 Fish-making time with Mr. Teruya

K2 friends are learning about many sea animals so we invited Mr. Teruya to teach us how to make fish using nature material. He suggested using Adan leaves. After that, we made it with him.

K2 friends really enjoyed this time. However, they want to use another material to make fish and add it to their aquarium so, they made another one using construction paper. Miss Sawako also read a story about Adan tree.

Thank you Mr. Teruya for another creative learning and fun-filled experience that you have shared with us. 🙂

Peace Week (Part 2)

Our PEACE Week has been concluded. As a recap, we look back at the activities that we had from Monday to Wednesday.

On Thursday, June 23rd, we commemorate the Okinawa PEACE MEMORIAL DAY (慰霊の日).

Last week, Friday, we had a PEACE ASSEMBLY. Prior to that day, we ask our students a question: “What does peace mean to you?” We asked them to think and present their answers.

Below is the video of our event.

After that, we had play time in each classroom with K1 and K2 as partners. They played musical chair and newspaper dance.

Then, in the afternoon, G9 friends came. They observed Kindergarten a month ago and came up with different toys that thought are appropriate and interesting for them.

True enough, they had fun. As everyone agreed on, PEACE means HAPPINESS. Let’s continue to be peacemakers Kinder friends. ☮️
