We started tuning in on Living Things by watching a video. The children re-enacted how a plant grows from a seed. Finding out what their needs are. We explored outside around the school and tried to identify as many living things that we can find. They found ants, people, flowers, trees and bugs! The whole school came together to have our photo taken for the yearbook. We also dedicated the time to remember the tragedy of Sewol with a brief solemn ceremony. Our annual Spring Farm trip gave everyone a chance to enjoy picking strawberries. Everyone came home with a box of sweet red strawberries.

The children came back with a lot of stories to share about the break. They made a picture of the things they did and shared them to their classmates. The book "1 2 3 Peas" made the children excited to count up to 14 and draw some peas of their own. We also had a chance to explore some applications with our Ipads. The children made some pictures using "Feltboard" and explored with "Emotions". The children got to have a post-Easter celebration with an Egg Hunt! The small chocolate eggs were not so small with the great searching skills of the children. It was wonderful to see how the children shared some extra eggs they found to their classmates!
Welcome Back!!! We hope you had a wonderful break. We will ask the children to share what they did on Spring Break!
It was an engagingly exciting creative week for Preschool. Their imagination and fine motor skills were challenged each day with different forms of Art. They drew, printed, sculpted, made patterns and colored using various media to express their creative ideas! Day One Day Two Day Three Day Four Exhibition Day
The preschoolers displayed how being principled is as they took charge of the day during Student-Led Conference. They showed how to be knowledgeable by going through each part of the activity independently and showing it to their parents. An impressive showcase of skills and talents. It was an awesome day!
We Came, We Saw, We Created! This week the children went to see lighthouses in Cheongsapo. They had a firsthand view of how a real lighthouse looks like. When they came back, they drew a picture of a lighthouse on how they remembered it. Using their drawings they created their own models of lighthouses.
The children were encouraged to construct / build their own structures as a group after we read the book "Goodnight, Goodnight, Construction Site". Their collaborative efforts made two creatively beautiful houses. They made sure that they have lighting in them. The children are showing how easy it is to mix colors to make a new one. Each one was given a secondary color and they needed to figure out which colors to mix to get it. The book "The Black Book of Colors" challenged the children on feeling, smelling and imagining colors in their minds. They felt the pictures with their hands and imagined what colors those images have.
