🍠 K2 Sweet Potato Digging 🍠

K2 friends did a really great job during our Sports Day! Thus, we thought of giving them a reward by having a sweet potato digging experience. 🙂 Although they have had this experience last year, the day before our field trip, we read books and practice how to dig the sweet potatoes.

We arrived in Yomitan with happy hearts. The weather is perfect for our plans for the day 🙂

Let’s start!

👏👏👏We’ve dug lots of sweet potatoes! 💪👏👏

After the great sweet potato digging experience, we went to Zanpa Park to eat lunch and play.

😊😊😊It was a great and fun-filled Tuesday indeed!😊😊😊

K1 Sentai Earth Saver

K1の子どもたちは、SDGsの絵本を読んだことをきっかけに地球や環境への関心が高まり、「地球を守る!Earth Saver」というオリジナルのスーパーヒーローを生み出しました。子どもたち一人ひとりが好きな色の「Earth Saver(アースセイバー)」になりきり、地球のために自分たちができることについて話し合いました。

During the last two weeks we have been reading these books during Circle Time. K1s became interested in learning about how to save our Earth. They made their original Earth Saver picture (deciding their favorite pose and colors) to help them work to save our Earth. We posted them in our classroom.

今月は、SDGsの掲げる12番目のテーマ「つくる責任、つかう責任」の中から、『フードロス』に焦点を当て、身近にできることとして、まずは毎日のお弁当を30分間で完食する「30分ペロリチャレンジ」に取んでいます。クラス全員がお弁当を完食すると、コミュニケーションブックのシールが「ペロリ」になり、全員が完食できなければ「クライ(泣き顔)」になります。

This month we will focus on SDGs (Sustainable Development Goals). They chose to focus their Earth Saver powers on #12 “Food Loss”. So they started the “Perori Challenge” where they will challenge and try to finish ALL of their lunch within Lunch Time (30minutes). When K1s work together and finish all their lunch they are rewarded with a “Perori face” (happy face) on their communication book attendance sticker. They they are unable to work as a team and focus and finish their lunch during Lunch Time then they get a sad face sticker.

子どもたちは、日々「ペロリ」を目指して頑張っています。

They are working hard to reach their goals every day.

 

ご家庭でも、応援よろしくお願いいたします。Please encourage your child at home!

Good-bye Lucky

For one month we have been taking care of our rare yellow praying mantis. We learned how praying mantis’ grow, what they eat, and what they like. On Friday we said good-bye to Lucky and returned her to the forest. Thank you, Lucky, for teaching us so much about praying mantis’ and other insects and bugs.

Earth Saver Challenge- Making Reusable Bags for Hallowe’en

Recently K1s have been learning about ways to save our earth. One way they are trying to save the Earth is by making reusable treat bags for Hallowe’en using old material from home. They choose their materials, sewed, and painted their names on them. They did a great job.
