In the garden



  
The topic- in the garden is a very entertaining topic for children in Kindergarten. It is very important for them to learn about the environment around us : how trees and plants grow and about the lovely insects we can find. This will help them to appreciate nature  more and learn how to take care and respect it.








We are going to focus a lot about the life of a growing seed.




 The parts of a flowering plant are an important scientific concept that will be explored in future school topics too.  At this level, it's important that children of this age understand the function of petals, roots, and leaves.





There are also many beautiful little creatures we can find in the garden :


Bees



ladybugs

People who help us

At school we are learning about the Topic - People who help us



This topic is very important because the children will learn to identify the different Community helpers around us and learn to appreciate and understand their jobs.

We are going to learn about the teacher, doctor, baker/chef, policeman, postman, fireman, hairdresser, driver and farmer.

Making a banana milkshake




Today we made a banana milkshake. The children loved cutting banana pieces where we reinforced the colour yellow and the circle shape. We then added milk and ice and put them in a blender. The children also learnt that from a solid, the banana was blended into a liquid and it became a delicious healthy drink!

Check out our cooking activities page to see the photos we took in the kitchen :)

Autumn and Halloween


It's that time of the year when our classroom is full of pumpkins, friendly ghosts, bats and scarecrows!

During this topic, we are also going to discuss Halloween as a festival where we can all dress up just like Carnival and a good excuse to eat some yummy treats - always remembering not to exaggerate with sugar and eat healthily!

We are going to learn about Autumn and the changes in nature during this lovely season and the beautiful colours of the leaves falling from the trees.
