Dear parents, thank you for coming and joining us last Friday. Here are a few snapshots of our event.
We appreciate your help, support and encouragement so that our Kinder friends can show their skills and enjoy. We have another event on Friday, see you then ๐ ในใใผใใใคใฎ็ทด็ฟใใใใฆๆฌ็ชใ้ใใฆใๅญใฉใใใกใฏๅคงใใช่ชไฟกใๆใคใใจใใงใใใจๆใใพใใๆฌ็ชใฎๅญใฉใใใกใฏใใคใไปฅไธใซใญใฉใญใฉ่ผใใฆใใพใใ๏ผในใใผใใใคใซๅใใฆใใใใใฎๅฟๆดใจใๅๅใใใใจใใใใใพใใ๏ผ
K1 friends have been taking care of our plants. They do watering, weeding, recovering the soil and talking to plants like “ๅคงใใใชใใ” “ใใใใใชใใ” every day. We were able to harvest two cucumbers last week because they did good taking care of their plants! ใใใใใใจใๆค็ฉใใกใใฟใใชใฎๅฃฐใ่ใใฆใใใฎใใใญ๐ Good job K1!!!๐๐ฝ
We ate the freshly harvested cucumbers for afternoon snack. It was super yummy!! Also, more cucumbers are still growing and we might be able to harvest them this week! Grow plants, grow!!๐
K1 friends enjoyed their biggest field trip of the year to Churaumi Aquarium in Motobu. They day was beautiful, the bus ride was long, but they did a great job and had a great time!
A beautiful day and beautiful bus ride…
We arrived!
“I see sharks!”
We saw “sea garbage art”. K1s learned how garbage is dangerous for sharks. They said, “Let’s do beach cleaning!”
Q&A. To continue our Animals theme learning, we sent many questions about sharks to the Churaumi staff. They prepared a short presentation for us. K1 “Interviewers” ask questions to Ms. Higa and we were able to learn more about amazing sharks.
Question 1: how are sharks born?
Question 2: what do sharks’ scales look like?
Question 3: how many types of sharks are there?
Question 4: how fast do sharks swim?
Questions 5: What should you do if you see a shark in the ocean?
Question 6: what does the inside of sharks’ bodies look like?
Last weekend marked the end of summer and the beginning of the beautiful fall season. K1s learned about the wonderful seasonal hobby of “moon watching” or ใใ ใใใใWe had fun learning the Japanese traditional song, ใใใใคใ (Rabbit and the Moon)ใK1s made beautiful artwork about the full autumn moon. They used several different art techniques. They had a great time. Please enjoy the photos. We hope you enjoyed a peaceful Autumn Break. We were happy to see most of our K1s back today to start Term 2 with fun!
Moon Art
End of Term 1 Assembly & Teachers Day Celebration- “Thank you, teachers, for all you do!”
We enjoyed our last Nature Walk of Term 1. We look forward to many more as the weather becomes cooler in Term 2.
K1s have been enjoying a lot of activities related to their theme- ANIMALS. They are enjoying discovering the beautiful nature and small animals around them.
Last week we renewed our K1 garden. We decided to plant 4 crops- tomatoes and cucumbers (we want to try again), and eggplants and green peppers. We enjoyed Quiz Time- guessing which plant grows which vegetable. K1s used their 5 senses. It was fun!
Thank you again for your support for our K1s Mission. The Mission is COMPLETE! All K1s have presented and we learned a lot about the foods they made and how they are good for our bodies. It is encouraging to hear that they are using their S&T sentences to talk about their snack and lunch with one another. We look forward to challenging them more as we get into Term 2!
