Hello everyone! みなさん、こんにちは！

Welcome back to the Rainbow class blog. We have entered a month, which means new topics and songs! We also had fun doing crafts together and had a fun music lesson!

今週もブログを見にきてくださりありがとうございます。9月になり新しいトピックと歌が始まりました。そしてクラフトやmusic lessonでも楽しい時間を過ごしました。

Moon viewing craft

We made our own moon viewing picture for crafts this week. To make the dango in the picture, the kids stuck round white pieces of paper on to the paper. They also had a picture of themselves that they could stick on the cat in the picture. We help and give instructions on how to do everything, but we try to let the kids think for themselves as much as possible. This not only gives them a sense of accomplishments, but also makes each craft more unique!

9月10日は十五夜でした。9月は月が綺麗に見える時期であることを説明して制作に取り掛かりました。両面テープの剥離紙を自分で剥がしてお団子と自分の顔を貼っていきました。それぞれの個性が出ているお団子の配置になりました😄

Music lesson

We started this week’s music lesson by doing a ball exercise. The kids sat down in pairs and handed the ball to each other saying “Here you are” and “Thank you” as they gave and received the ball. We have also started practicing bells. I think we were all surprised how well our wonderful kids are doing! They followed the teacher’s instructions and were able to hit the bells in the correct rhythm! Well done everyone!!

今週のmusic lessonはリズムに合わせてボールをどうぞと渡すエクササイズから始まりました。“here you are” ”thank you”と声を掛け合いながら行いました。そしてクリスマスショーに向けての練習も始まりました。とっても上手に先生に言われた通りに鈴を鳴らして、休んで、鳴らしてとできたので担任もびっくりしました！

Monthly song for September

We have started to sing the song “Under the Spreading Chestnut Tree” in class this week. The kids can sing along with the song very nicely. Please sing it together at home too when you have time!

今週は“大きな栗の木の下で“を歌いました！お家でもお子さんと歌ってくださいね！

Thank you for reading, and see you again next week!

それではまた来週！
