What an exciting and joyful week it has been in our 3-year-old class! Every day, the children continue to amaze us with their growing confidence, curiosity, and enthusiasm for learning.

Our park adventures were filled with laughter, movement, and exploration. The children climbed, ran, balanced, and explored the environment with excitement and determination. It was heartwarming to see them encouraging one another, taking turns, and building stronger friendships through play. Outdoor experiences like these continue to support not only their physical development, but also their social and emotional growth.

One of the most exciting moments this week was school yard play! The children had the wonderful opportunity to interact and play with students from the upper classes. Watching them confidently mix with older children, observe new games, and join in the fun was truly special. The school yard was full of smiles, laughter, energy, and excitement — it was truly fun galore!

In our Unit of Inquiry (UOI), we began exploring the second line of inquiry by learning about the parts of the body. The classroom was filled with excitement as the children explored body part flashcards, pointed to different parts of their own bodies, and confidently shared what they knew. Some students eagerly came to the board to point out body parts to their classmates, showing growing confidence and participation.

To make learning even more engaging, songs and movement activities were introduced throughout the week. The children loved singing action songs, moving their bodies, and pointing to different body parts while learning new vocabulary. Through these fun and interactive experiences, they are beginning to understand how many body parts we have, proudly saying things such as “two eyes,” “two hands,” “two feet,” and “one nose.”

Another proud moment this week has been seeing the children become more confident during class activities and routines. Many students are now willingly coming to the front of the class to point, answer questions, and share ideas with their friends. They are also beginning to show a stronger understanding of our classroom agreements as they actively join in reviewing them during circle time and eager to show and tell.

Our music lessons are also becoming more exciting each week. The children are becoming increasingly familiar with rhythms, songs, and movement activities. It has been wonderful to watch them actively participate, express themselves freely, and enjoy making music together as a class.

After paying close attention to what this week’s drill was all about, they participated in it successfully.

It has truly been a week filled with exploration, confidence, laughter, and meaningful learning experiences. We are so proud of how much the children are growing each day and cannot wait to see what next week brings!
