Welcome to our first blog in the Shooting Star class!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This week was quite busy as our young learners began adjusting to their new routines and classroom environment. To kick off our activities, we played a fun game called \u201cPass the Microphone.\u201d Music played while the children passed the microphone around, and when the music stopped, the child holding it introduced themselves. They shared their name, age, favorite color, favorite food, pets, and more. It was a wonderful way to get to know each other and celebrate both our differences and similarities. Thank you for sharing, Shooting Star!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

For our phonics lesson, we reviewed the letters A\u2013F and their sounds. The students also gave examples of words that begin with each letter. We identified both the uppercase and lowercase forms of each letter.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After that, we played a game called \u201cFind My Pair.\u201d The students walked around the classroom to find the other half of a bone to complete the uppercase and lowercase letter pairs. Lastly, each pair stood in front of the class to say the letter and its sound.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

This activity aimed to foster social skills among the students while helping them learn the alphabet in an easy and fun way!<\/p>\n\n\n\n

In our Unit of Inquiry, we began our discussion with a gallery walk as a provocation. Each group had a chance to come to the front and look at the photos displayed. They carefully observed the pictures one by one.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

After the activity, they were asked to share their ideas about what they saw and what they thought Unit 1 might be about. Some of them said they saw a dog, a mommy and daddy, a grandma and grandpa, friends, adults, and a family. We talked about our own families and how each of us may have different or similar family structures. We also learned who our family members are, how many members we have, and where they live. It was wonderful to hear their ideas and see them actively participating in the lesson!<\/p>\n\n\n\n
