Christmas Party
Hello Moms and Dads! Did you enjoy our Christmas Party on December 2nd? We had a great time singing Christmas carols, dancing, having snacks and taking pictures with friends. We even had a special visit from Santa Claus himself! Since then, we also celebrated Setsubun by throwing beans at demons. Then we celebrated Valentine’s Day by making handmade gift for our moms and dads.
Learning About Countries
In February, we’ve been spending a lot of time learning about different countries and their flags. We learned about a different country every day, mainly focusing on the countries our students and parents are from. So far, we learned how to count to 10 in Japanese, Brazilian Portuguese and Polish! We made London Guard dolls and fans for Chinese New Year, too.
Money and Shopping, Springtime Fun
For March, be ready to learn all about Money and Shopping. We will learn to recognize Japanese currency and practice shopping in class. They’ll learn how money is earned and sell products they made themselves to each other. Upper kindergarten will also learn to estimate totals and prepare the proper amount due. When at home and around town, please involve them in purchases for extra practice. We’ll also be celebrating Holi, which is the Indian festival of colors. We will also have a picnic under the cherry blossom trees towards the end of the month when the trees are in full bloom. Lastly, we will have an Easter Egg Hunt at Shibakoen.
We are now taking admissions for Baby Steps, First Steps and Preschool. The new school year is just around the corner. Call or email us any time for information and to schedule a trial!
