Our learning


Circle time: The peacocks practiced the day and date routine. They also learned to distinguish between the different seasons. Also the children practiced the songs for the summer party.

Science: We had two students joining us this week for their practice. They conducted an experiment with the students. In this experiment they tested different material on ice to see what happens to the state of ice. The different materials used where, sugar, vinegar and salt. The saw that sugar didn’t do much to the ice, but vinegar and salt made the ice melt.

Toy Day: Though peacocks had planned the toy day outside but since the weather did not cooperate with us we had to postpone it to next week.

Dear Parents,

Acording to the weather forecast, tomorrow the weather is supposed to be cloudy and rainy. So,the toy day which we had planned outdoors tomorrow needs to be postponed to next Wednesday. The children can bring their usual indoor toys instead of the outdoor ones tomorrow.

Have a nice day!

Hello Peacock parents,

 

Information from us, week 18

We have noticed that some children don’t have indoor shoes. Please make sure your child has indoor shoes as it is for their safety. 
Also we noticed not all children have spare clothes in their lockers. 

Outside toy day: On Wednesday we have our toy day. As the weather is very nice we would like to organize an ‘outside toy day’. The children can bring an outdoor toy to school to share with the other children. This will be on Wednesday May 7th. If the weather changes and we can’t have the toy day outside we will inform you on Tuesday. 

Development talks: Please fill in your name and your child’s name in one of the white boxes.

Market day: On Wednesday the 15th of May the PSA is organizing the Market day. You are all very welcome between 15.00-17.00hrs at the pre-school. On the entrance door in the school the PSA has hang up more information for that day.

Our learning


Art projects: The children have started two art projects. In the first art project the children made a model of the tower of Pisa using clay and toilet rolls. They painted it last week and this week they have painted the arches. They enjoyed working on it.
The second project is building a school model. Bird’s eye view of the school was first sketched on a large piece of paper. The children identified where the different objects where in relation to the school building. For example slides, trees and the wheel. They made the objects using clay, paper and paint. Milk cartons and serial boxes where used to make the school building. It was then wrapped with tissue paper. The children also painted the trees and slide models (objects).These early mapping skills help children to orientate themselves and to relate to the environment around them. This activity also enhanced their observational skills, awareness of their environment and spatial skills.


Summer Party: This week we have also been preparing for the summer party.The children are practicing to sing new songs and are doing a wonderful job. The peacocks and flamingoes together are preparing many exciting performances to entertain you at the summer party.


Sports: Since the weather has been so beautiful , we have been outdoors a lot. The children played a lot of hockey this week.
We have with us two students from the Stockholm University. They are doing teaching practice at our school. This week they studied the interests of the children and in week 19 they will be doing science projects with the children.
