Rhythmic Tuesdays!

This morning both Butterfly and Caterpillar had their separate Rhythmic lessons. Butterfly and Caterpillar both sang with the piano to B-I-N-G-O, and clapped their hands when they heard N-G-O. After, they tried walking and jumping when they heard N-G-O. Butterfly used maracas and danced, and Caterpillar used scarves and danced freely to some music. Butterfly used sticks to beat rhythmically along to the beat. Caterpillar used maracas to clap to the beat. Butterfly sang do-re-mi-fa-so with the piano and practiced tone. It was also Nen Cho's final lesson together with Eriko sensei, and so they gave a card which they made together as a token of their appreciation. It was a fun morning and a wonderful end to the year.

キャタピラーさんは数遊びのLessonがありました!
今回はプログラミングを取り入れたLessonで、カードに合わせて動いたり、自分たちで道を完成させるという少し難しい事に挑戦してみましたよ(*´▽`*)
まずは、色々な動作の絵カードが出て来て、みんなはロボットに変身です!!
絵カードを並べてその順番通りに座ったりジャンプをしたりするのですが、みんなロボットになりきって上手にポーズを取ったりジャンプをしたりすることが出来ていました☆
その後は、みんなで車が通る道路づくりに挑戦です!
0歳児さんも1歳児さんも真っすぐの道路のパーツを貰い、繋げて車さんをゴールまで連れて行ってあげました!
2歳児さんは少し難しく、真っすぐと曲がっているパーツをもらい、みんなで協力しながらゴールまでの道路を完成させました✨
プログラミングと聞くと少し難しいですが、こういった遊びの中で取り組んでみると色々と楽しめますね~普段の遊びでも取り入れて行けたらと思います(^^♪

This afternoon Butterfly class had their final English lesson of the year! First, we read Nen Cho's Penpal letters. After, we began our English Olympics challenges. We started with a giant Ispy picture! As we hunted for different words, we said "Eye spy with my little eye", and used a big magnifying glass. Our second challenge was Simon Says. If the teacher said Simon Says Jump, We should jump! If the teacher just says Jump, then we stay still!! Almost everyone could follow instructions really well. And finally we played musical chairs for fun! We won even more points for our teams, but there will still be a few more moments that we can challenge ourselves and win bonus points.

ぽっかぽかの土曜日☀

今日はとっても暖かくて気持ちの良い一日でしたね(#^.^#)
子ども達の着る上着や帽子もだんだんと薄手になってきて、季節の変わり目を実感するこの頃ですね♪
そんな土曜日、お散歩の準備をすませて早速昭和記念公園へ行ってきました!
公園にはタンポポがたくさん咲いていたり椿の花が落ちていて、探索や収集を楽しむ子ども達(^O^)
のんびり遊んで帰ってきました。

We Love Going Outside!

This morning in Caterpillar Class, we were so happy for the warm and sunny day at the park. We started from school and everyone walked to the park so that we could explore nature and play with outside balls. We practiced kicking, rolling and throwing balls, and some students explored nature by finding sticks, rocks and other items. We also practiced our art skills in nature by drawing in the dirt. It was so much fun. What a beautiful Friday!

バタフライさんはまずはMath Lessonがありました!
今回は1年の総まとめという事で、色々な場面で使う機会の多い足し算の復習をしました♪
学年によって異なるレベルのプリントを使いながら、足し算の練習をしてみましたよ✨
年少さんはまだ少し難しい世でしたが、最後まであきらめずに取り組んでいました!年中さんはだいぶやり方が分かってきたようで自分で解ける問題が少し増えてきました!
年長さんはすらすらと自分で取り組んで〇をもらえていましたよ( *´艸`)

その後は昭和記念公園に行って遊んできました!
最初は昨日の続きで大縄跳びにみんなで挑戦です!
今月は何度か繰り返し皆で飛べる回数を増やしていきたいです☆

This afternoon, we had a fire drill during naptime. We practiced what we would do if there was a fire during naptime in the kitchen area. We practiced lining up by back door of the school ready to go outside. Since the fire is in the kitchen area, we would get as far away as possible quickly and quietly. After we practiced our drill, we talked about getting up immediately and not changing clothing before going outside. If we are in our pajamas and there is a fire, we should not stop and change clothes because it is very dangerous. We also reviewed not talking and walking quickly but safely out of the building. Our students did a great job of practicing their safety skills.

This morning in Caterpillar Class, we got to enjoy the beautiful day outside at the park. We started the day with a game of monster tag, then we had free play near one of the big trees. Everyone loves digging and finding seeds, stones, stickers and other nature items!

After we enjoyed free play together, 2-year-old students went to our community garden. We have 4 small garden spaces that we use to grow vegetables like broccoli, lettuce and other vegetables. Today, we harvested our lettuce to have at lunch time this week. After we got our lettuce, we took some time to play in the green space in front of our garden. It was so much fun to play before coming back to school!

Butterflyさんは午前に卒園式の練習や、4月の壁面であるEasterテーマのArtの仕上げに取り掛かりました♪
とっても可愛らしい作品に仕上がっているので、4月をお楽しみに!!!!

その後はP.ELessonの時間です☆
今月のP.Eは縄跳びがテーマということで、一人一人自分の縄跳びを持って前跳びや後跳びの練習を行いました!
前回縄跳びを使って遊んでから少し時間経っていたこともあり、みんなの背が伸び縄が短くなってしまっているお友達がたくさん!!(笑)
きちんと縄の長さを調整してから練習をスタートです~(*^-^*)

しばらく練習を重ねるうちに「先生みて!!○回跳べたよ!」と沢山のお友達が報告しに来てくれました♪
今度は大繩にぜひ挑戦してみたいと思います!!

This afternoon Caterpillar class had Free Time!! As always, we read wonderful stories, played with the blocks, and role played different situations together in the Kitchen or walking with our babies. Two years old are really enjoying playing "CATS" recently, and other students have been bettering their grip of different objects.

In the Butterfly classroom we had our English Lesson, and continued our English Olympics challenges. Today was interesting, because little by little we are learning how to show "sportsmanship"! It is a difficult thing to learn, but something that everyone needs to learn! Our first challenge was reading different names of friends, starting from Nen sho reading their own names. Then we even tried to read some teachers names! After that we did Charades using different emotions. And finally, we played "name 5" challenge, which we used a 10 second timer for!! It was so funny to try to think of many different categories. Everyone had a great time and won many points for their teams!!
