Hello Everyone!
What a FRUITful week it was for Rainbow. This week we had an amazing time learning about the different kinds of fruits. Through fun games and activities kids were able to enjoy this months theme. We did matching and sorting the fruits, we did fruit hunting, even during our walk around the neighborhood we saw some fruit trees, then we also danced and sang to our fruit themed song while shaking some fruit shaped maracas. What’s more kids also eagerly shared about the fruits they already tried or ate, they talked about the fruits that they love to eat, and of course they excitedly shared about their most favorite fruits. Additionally, kids where also curious about the fruits that they are not familiar with. Fruits that they’ve only seen for the first time and only in the pictures, they were amazed with the shape, color and they were wondering how it would taste like. There’s really a lot of interesting yummy looking, and some odd looking fruits out there. Learning about fruits makes us happy and hungry.
今週はレインボーにとってフルーツづくしの一週間でした。今週は、いろいろな種類の果物について学びました。楽しいゲームやアクティビティを通して、この月のテーマを楽しみました。果物の形をしたマラカスを振りながら、果物をテーマにした歌に合わせて踊ったり歌ったりしました。さらに子どもたちは、すでに食べたり試したりした果物や、大好きな果物について、そしてもちろん一番好きな果物について、熱心に話してくれました。また、子どもたちは見慣れない果物にも興味津々でした。初めて見る果物や写真でしか見たことのない果物は、形や色に驚き、どんな味がするのだろうと想像を膨らませていました。おいしそうな果物、ちょっと変わった果物、本当にたくさんあります。果物について学ぶことは、私たちを幸せにし、お腹を空かせてくれます。
GYM LESSON
Lately we’ve been having our gym lessons indoors. During indoor gym lesson kids get to move their bodies without getting too tired from the heat outdoors. In our gym lesson kids did a lot of physical exercises from walking like bears, rolling on the floor, moving silently like ninjas, running around then moving slow, jumping on hoops and balancing on beams, everyone challenged themselves and had a great time doing it together. Their new favorite activity was playing with the colorful cones that were scattered in the room, the teacher would call out a color and they would hurriedly search for the cone then collect them and gave it back to the gym teacher. Everyone was game and scrambling happily. Gym lesson this week was so exciting.
最近、ジム・レッスンを室内で行っています。室内でのジム・レッスンでは、子どもたちは屋外の暑さで疲れすぎることなく体を動かすことができます。ジム・レッスンでは、クマのように歩いたり、床を転がったり、忍者のように黙々と動いたり、走り回ってからゆっくり動いたり、フープでジャンプしたり、ビームの上でバランスをとったりと、たくさんの運動をしました。先生が色を呼ぶと、子どもたちは急いでコーンを探し、それを集めてジムレッスンの先生に返しに行きました。みんなゲーム感覚で、楽しそうに駆け回っていました。今週のジム・レッスンはとてもエキサイティングでした。
MUSIC LESSON
In our Music lesson we were able to play with the jumping frog toy again. Then after that we had to pretend like frogs jumping onto lily pads (the hoops were the lily pads) After being frogs we had to sway and move around the room with the hoops pretending we were riding a sailboat floating in the water while the song ‘Umi’ was being played. Music lesson was fun and everyone always wants to play more.
ミュージックレッスンでは、またジャンピング・フロッグのおもちゃと一緒に遊ぶことができました。カエルになった後は、「海」の曲が流れる中、水に浮かぶヨットに乗っているつもりで、フープと一緒に揺れたり、部屋の中を移動したりしました。ミュージックレッスンは楽しくて、みんなもっとやりたがっていました。
