• 2021.06.15Today’s Class 1

  

  Today in Class 1 we had lots of fun shopping for ice creams! The children did a great job buying and selling them with nice clear voices. We also did a “Ninja challenge”, seeing how long we could hang from the iron bar and seeing if we could pass balls to each other without dropping them. After a walk around the park it was time for our yummy lunch. Today was a busy but super fun day in Class 1.

  今日の年長組はカワイ体操教室から講師のゆうか先生に来ていただき、体育教室を行いました。久しぶりのゆうか先生との再会に喜ぶお子さま達。「よろしくお願いします！」と元気に挨拶をしてスタートしました！入念に準備体操を行い、「ラダー」でうさぎ跳びや犬跳び、グーグーパージャンプなどを頑張りました。跳び箱とマット運動では、前回の体育教室後からクラスで特訓してきた成果を発揮するお子さま達ばかりで、どんどん上手になってきています。最後は鬼ごっこをして、あっという間にゆうか先生とのお別れの時間になってしまいました。最後の挨拶も、「ありがとうございました！」と元気に言うことができ、さすが年長組のお子さま達でした。次回の体育教室は、Physical Festivalへ向けたチアダンスを行います！楽しみにしていてくださいね！

• 2021.06.11Today’s Class 9

  

  「今日は30度になるんだよ！」と、気温が暑くなることを嬉しそうに話していたClass 9のお子さま達。製作やグループ活動を楽しみに登園してきました。製作では、お父さまに渡す父の日のプレゼントを完成させました。お父さまのお顔や、飾り付けをこだわってつくり、プレゼントする日を楽しみにしていたお子さま達です。午後からは年長組で集まってグループ活動を行いました。一輪車、竹馬、縄跳びのそれぞれのグループで目標に向かって少しずつレベルアップしていることがとっても嬉しかったようで、クラスに戻ると「楽しかった！」「今日は一輪車に乗って少し進めるようになったよ！」と、笑顔で教えてくれました。来週も、いろいろな遊びをして楽しみましょうね！

  今日はとても暑い日でしたが、３組のお子さま達は幼稚園では元気いっぱい体を動かして遊んだり、大事に育てているトマトの苗に水やりをしました！Physical Timeでは、タンバリンをタッチしてから猛スピードでコロコロ転がるマット運動を楽しみ、元気に体を動かした後はお部屋でゆっくりおもちゃ遊びをしましたよ。明日も暑い一日となりそうですね。３組はみんなが大好きなSwimming lessonの日なので、たくさん楽しみたいと思っています！

• 2021.06.09Today’s Bear Class

  

  Today in Bear Class all the children had so much fun making butterflies! After play time and the morning meeting, we danced to “If You’re Happy and You Know It” and then did our craft. A colorful butterfly was “sad” since he didn’t have any friends. The children could say “butterfly, please” and decorate theirs with stickers. Everyone got 4 colors: “green”, “orange”, “pink”, and “yellow”. When everyone finished, we flew around with our butterflies. Great job today, everyone! We are looking forward to seeing you next week. Let’s meet a new friend, Mr. Caterpillar.

• 2021.06.08Today’s Class 7

  

  Today, we had lots of fun in Class 7! The children arrived and greeted their friends with big, happy voices, and we had lots of fun doing our morning exercise. After the Morning Meeting, the children painted beautiful blue, red, purple and pink hydrangeas for summer. We look forward to seeing many beautiful flowers outside in the park! We also had our Music Lesson today! Recently, everyone has been working very hard to practice playing the tone chimes during Music Lesson, and the children are already showing great improvements with their timing. After our Music Lesson, Class 7 received a letter from Mr. Astronaut and we made cool rockets with different colours and patterns! Everyone is looking forward to sending them into Space soon! Good job, Class 7!

• 2021.06.07Today’s Class6

  

  今日のclass６は、気持ちのいい青空の中、北風公園に出かけてきました。黄色のタンポポや綿毛のタンポポを集めたり、他のクラスの友達一緒に虫を追いかけたり、汗だくになるまで『変わりオニ』に夢中になったりと、思う存分外遊びを満喫していましたよ。製作活動では、カタツムリの折り紙に挑戦！前回のてんとう虫よりも少し難しい折り方にも集中して取り組み、明日のクレヨンでの仕上げをとても楽しみにしていました。大好きなカプラ遊びでは、最近高く積み上げるだけではなく、広く並べることが流行っているclass６のお子さま達。綺麗に並べて達成感を味わった後は、Clean upの合図と同時にダイナミックに崩しては大盛り上がりのお子さま達でした。

• 2021.06.04Today’s Elephant Class

  

  Today in Elephant Class we had so much fun even though it was rainy and windy. We wanted to go to the park to play but Mr. Elephant had 3 challenges that we could do in the classroom instead. All the children did such a great job running through newspapers, making it “rain” by ripping flyers, and carrying colorful balls we made out of bags. Each child could listen to the teacher say a color like “green”, “purple,” or “pink” and pick the correct color too. Great job everyone! Have a wonderful weekend and see you back on Tuesday for school lunch.

• 2021.06.03Today’s Elephant Class

  

  Today in Elephant Class we went to Kitakaze Park. The children all had fun playing games with Mr. Elephant. After we took a group photo together with parents, Mr. Elephant came and showed off his box of fruit candy. But he spilled it all over the grass. The children helped collect all the balls so quickly. We found 3 more boxes and decided to separate the balls by colors green, blue, and orange. Finally, we did a relay where parents and children carried a ball around a cone and passed it to the next friend. It was so fun and everyone did a good job! Thank you for coming today and playing in the park, even though it was sunny and hot. We’ll look forward to seeing everyone next week where the children will get to try school lunch for the first time.

• 2021.06.02Today’s Class 5

  

  Everyone had a really fun time in Class 5 today. As soon as everyone arrived at the kindergarten, they practiced their bow tying and name writing. Once the whole class was ready, we went to Kitakaze Park to play with the other Intermediate and Junior classes. We had fun running around and finding interesting things. When we got back it was time for phonics, and learned about words starting with ‘ch.’ Class 5 also began making our Father’s Day crafts to give to the daddies. They drew Daddy’s face and painted plates and macaroni in different colors. There was just enough time for the Wednesday song before it was time to say goodbye. See you tomorrow!
