Blog for pre k and kindergarten

Hello dear parents!

We went through a wonderful week! We would like to thank the parents who

participated in the parent teacher conference! Discussing in a teacher - parent

conference has a big impact on the children's performance and self-confidence! Such events create a better understanding on curriculum and give a chance for teachers and parents to work together by setting an action plan for their child!

All about this week!

Our large group was so busy planning for our fall break! We were planning all the

activities that we can do with our friends and families during fall break and when

we come back!

Here are some plans!

I'm going to go to Sudan'

I will visit all my friends and play with them

I'm going to visit my dad's workplace'

'I think, I'm going to treat my little sister'

What was our small group all about this week?

Literacy, Mathematics, Music and Movement, Journal and Science were the

activities we explored!

Literacy 

We all were busy practicing our zoo-phonics! Why is it important to learn phonics?

Learning phonics is one of the ways to develop the necessary skills to read and

write. It's a well-established predictor of children's literacy in later life! Learning in a fun way helps connect all areas of learning and this will give them more interest in learning for the long term!

Mathematics 

We keep discussing and working on numbers. In this week, we worked on one digit

numbers! The pre k were trying to identify the figure of one-digit numbers and the

kindergarten were discussing about why the numbers 0 to 9 are called one digit!

Music and Movement

Music and Movement instruction has been shown to improve children’s memory,

cognitive development learning and expressive ability! We did a musical dot in

outside! Our group was really engaged listening to music and dancing at the same

time standing on dots when the music stops!

Art

Our group was exploring different kinds of paint and blowing on a paper then got to

be surprised to find an abstract picture! When kids are engaged in creative

activities like painting, they’re stimulating their brain by using their memory as well

as decision making and problem-solving skills!

Science

The pre k and kindergarten discussed about lungs! We were breathing in and out

and try to understand the function of lungs!
