Well, it has been short and sweet and the last 3 days have gone by quickly. In Pre K B this week we learnt more about short and long a, e, i , o and u sounds by sorting pictures into the 2 categories. The children worked with a partner to glue them onto the correct sheet and we have displayed them in the classroom. Some students are still struggling to differentiate short vowel and long vowel sounds so we will go back to short vowels and practise that some more next week.
Yesterday, I tested the children on their ability to count from 1 up to 100 and from down 10 to 0. Many children can count up to 29 confidently so we will practise that more. Everyone can count from 10 down to 0 using their fingers which is great! I also checked the student's gross motor skills in their gym lesson and the majority of then can kick a ball from a moving position and everyone can kick a ball from a stationary position. Many of them can do a forward roll by themselves which is excellent to see.
For Japanese, the children wrote their tanabata wish on a piece of paper which will be attached to the wishing tree next week for Japanese Culture Day.
I'm going to visit the beaches in Wakayama and buy some pickled plums so I hope you enjoy the 4 day weekend!
