Guess hooooo....?

What a great week at KM! We worked together to make some beautiful owls and it was so much fun mixing colours and painting with our hands! The children also enjoyed making hand print leaves because they got to dunk their hands into paint and see their hand prints on paper with lots of colours swirled in them. 
Here they are working away! 













 Here we are working in groups to collage a moon. The children were talking about the sky, the moon and stars while collaging - we even sang 'twinkle, twinkle, little star' while working!




 Ploen and Lucy helped to paint some extra leaves after making hand print leaves.



All of KM's hard work came together on the big board at the bottom of the stairs - come and have a look next time you're in EY!

Working together is fun!

Wow! What a week! We have had so much fun learning the rules and routines of  Kindergarten. The focus of this week has been to continue to get to know each other and learn how to work together.The children have been having so much fun working and playing together - they have been sharing, using nice words and helping each other, a lot! Have a look at some of the group work that has been going on in KM, below!


Harry and Arthur shared a toy car.

Ploen had too much food on her plate, so she gave Nari some!

Working together to pull off a great tea party!

Lucy showed Freya how to draw some food on her plate. 

Irene saw that Porsche didn't have a lot of play dough, so she gave him some of hers. 

Harry, Nari, Pailin and Mayumi shared a mirror. They did an activity where they had to look at their faces and try to paste features on the right place on a face template. They did really well!



The children discovered the water area this week - and played together with KR. 




The children have been learning how to play nicely on the play ground, with Reception, too!




 Today, Lexi and Porsche fed me and Kru.Noon some delicious food, because we were hungry!


SunLee and Nari went on a shopping trip together.

Irene joined the boys in the construction area. 



And finally, we all started a project about how to reduce germs from spreading. They are working hard to finish it by Friday so their mummies and daddies can see it! Wish us luck! 
Oh, and ask them what happened when Miss.Myshi sneezed on them yesterday :)

Settling in!

Welcome to term 1! I hope you and your kids had a lovely holiday! It was great to meet the students of KM after hearing all about them through other teachers! 
The children have spent the first two days settling in, exploring their new classroom and meeting old and new friends. 

Here are some pictures of the fun learning that has taken place in the first two days of school. 
Freya and Irene spent some time drawing shapes and they produced some beautiful artwork!
 The play dough area was very popular too - below are some children making friends and working together to produce their own unique shapes.
 Here is Lucy and Lexie talking and shaping play dough into flower shapes.
 The boys (Porsche and Mungkorn) did some work of their own on the other side of the table.


 Nari and Freya spent some time in the 'Reading Corner', interacting and reading some books together.




Harry, Arthur and Lucas played together with cars and building blocks. Above is Harry pushing a car along while making the sound of a car. And lower down is Arthur saying "look, it's a boy and a boy" while showing me two blocks of small boys. 

 Totem walked around the class discovering new shapes and textures with his hands.
 SunLee went on a shopping trip around the classroom and picked up some interesting items. He stopped along the way to show me what he had bought! 

Day 2 has been very successful too! 

 I was invited to a tea party that was hosted by Ploen, Lucas, Arthur, Irene, Lilin and Nari. Arthur even handed me a fork when he saw that I only had a knife to eat my cake with.
Irene was a very good girl and washed the dishes when everyone had finished eating! 


 The girls were busy pasting flowers on a tree and fish in the sea.

Look how well they did!

 Porsche and Irene bonded over their love for cars!
 I found Harry calling for a taxi! When I asked him who he is calling, he replied "I want a taxi" whilst pointing at the taxi next to him.
 Mayumi gathered her friends to come over and help with organising numbers.
She then went to make a call at the shop. 

It has been a great couple of days and we are looking forward to showing you more pictures of what we will get up to over the coming week! 
Bye for now...
