Hello everyone!
We kicked off the week by making our Big Tree Feelings! Everyone joined in, sharing fun ideas and talking about how to bring our big, colorful tree to life. We crumpled and glued pieces of paper together, giggling as we watched our tree grow bigger and brighter!
Since it’s Autumn, we added warm, cozy colors to make it even more beautiful. 🍁 It was such a fun way to work as a team, express our feelings, and celebrate the colors of the season!
We wrapped up our week with an exciting bus trip to Akanuma Park, and what an unforgettable day it was! The tube slide was definitely the star of the show — everyone loved it! We even convinced our teachers to join in the fun and give it a try. It was a little bit scary inside the dark tunnel, but we encouraged them with our favorite line: “Come on! Let’s be risk-takers!”
We explored every corner of the park — playing basketball, running races, and even a few rounds of hide-and-seek among the trees. Some of us climbed up to the lookout tower to admire the beautiful view of the apple farm below. It was such a peaceful and breathtaking sight! 🍎🌄
During lunchtime, we enjoyed delicious meals lovingly prepared by our families. We’re always so grateful for their care, effort, and unconditional support. 🍱❤️
By the end of the day, we had filled our memory buckets with joy, laughter, and friendship. On the ride back, the bus grew quiet — everyone was tired, happy, and soon fast asleep, dreaming of our wonderful day at Akanuma Park. 😴🌟
This week, on our closing circle time, we also focused and learn a lot on KINDNESS❤️ with Shooting Stars. How to be kind to our friends and how to respond when someone isn`t kind to us.
We’ve been learning five steps to solve the problem with friends:
- Don
t listen to unkind words. We pretend we don`thear them. Sometimes ignoring unkind words is okay, but not ignoring our friends to make them sad. - Talk friendly. We try to say these kind words, “Please be kind. Let
`s share. Let`s play together.”
3. Walk away. We practice walking away if these two steps above won`t work, and find someone else we can play with.
4. Talk firmly. Make eye-to-eye contact and use your best relaxed and calm voice, and say ” I said no., Please stop now., I will tell the teacher.”
5. Tell the teacher. Tell the teacher if none of these four steps works.
We encouraged the parents to talk about these things and practice them at home to make KIND CHOICES. We always have some choices, even if it is good or bad situations.
Thank you for visiting our blog and see you again next time!
Have a safe and great weekend!
