This week in Shooting Star class was full of excitement, learning, and joyful moments. Our students have shown growing interest and skill in playing with spinning tops. Every day, more children were able to wrap the string around the top and spin it independently. Each successful spin brought big smiles and a sense of pride. This activity has now become a favorite after lunch and after nap time, encouraging patience, coordination, and confidence.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Our Shooting Star students have also been making amazing progress with jump rope activities. At first, jumping over the rope was challenging, but with daily practice during outdoor play, most students can now jump up to 10 times on their own. During our gym lesson, Ms. Airi was impressed by their improvement and challenged them to level up the activity. This time, the children had to step into a rotating rope, stop at the right moment, and jump over it. Even though some students felt scared, they tried their best and showed incredible courage and determination. They truly demonstrated the Risk-taker learner profile, celebrating each success along the way.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our Unit of Inquiry, we learned about Setsubun in Japan. The children excitedly shared their ideas, saying, \u201cDemons come! We throw beans!\u201d They practiced the traditional Japanese chant meaning \u201cDemons out! Good luck in!\u201d in both Japanese and English. They learned that Setsubun is celebrated to chase away bad luck from changing seasons and to welcome good luck. The children enjoyed making demons and gods of good luck using origami paper, combining creativity with cultural understanding. Another fun UOI activity was a quiz about New Year and Setsubun, which the children eagerly answered, showing how much they remembered and understood from our lessons.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The students also did a birthday show and tell, sharing photos and stories of how they celebrate birthdays at home, which is also part of our UOI lesson on how Japanese celebrate birthday. Everyone was excited to see their friends\u2019 pictures. Together, we compared celebrations, noticed similarities and differences, and shared thoughts. This activity encouraged communication, open-mindedness, and respect for one another\u2019s experiences.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We had planned to visit the park on Friday, but because it was a snowy day, it was not safe to walk there. Instead, the children had a fantastic time playing in the snow. They enjoyed snowball fights and used their imagination to make snow cakes, ice cream, and shaved ice. Thank you so much to their complete snow gear, the students were able to enjoy the snow comfortably and safely, making the day extra special.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It was truly a joyful week filled with learning, laughter, and memorable moments. The Shooting Star students continue to grow in skills, independence, confidence, and interest while exploring, creating, and challenging themselves every day.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
