Easter Party ＠ 千里山田校
On the 17th of April we had our annual Global Village Easter Party.
The classes each came up with their own special games to play with the children to help them understand the culture and traditions associated with Easter.
千里山田校でイースターパーティを催しました！
「イースターってなんだろう？」と思ってるこども達に先生がわかりやすく説明をしてくれました。
The children all participated in an egg hunt, one of the big parts of the Easter tradition on the western world.
エッグハントの練習も行う念の入れようです！
The egg hunt was done in several different places in the school.
The hunt for the older children was a bit more difficult and the eggs were hidden in strange places all around the gym.
It was a lot of fun for the kids!
お楽しみのエッグハントです！
お兄ちゃん、お姉ちゃんたちは広いジムの中に隠れてる卵を一生懸命探しましたよ！
みんな見つけられたかな？
Once they found their chocolate eggs they put them together in a basket with an egg they dyed the day before.
They took the basket to the entryway and took a picture with a special visitor…
The Easter Bunny!
Each class also sat down with their children at the end of the day to enjoy some Easter stories and tried to connect each of the days activities to their social and cultural significance.
Overall it was a truly fun day for the staff and children alike!
大きいバニーにちょっとびっくりしちゃった子もいましたが、エッグハントを楽しんだ後はスクールヘルパーによってきれいに飾り付けられたエントランスにて、イースターバニーと記念撮影です。
陰で支えて頂いている皆様のご協力に感謝いたします。
みんなとっても楽しい１日を過ごしました！

Monkeys @ 高槻茨木校
Getting started on a new year in the Monkeys Room!
新学期が始まりましたね！新しくなったモンキーズではナーサリーから一緒だったクラスメイトもいれば、新しく学校に入ってきた新メンバーもいます。
The first challenge of every new class is getting to know the children! Some of them came up from nursery, and some have just begun their Global Village lives in April! We have been enjoying each other’s company with play, and group chants. One chant that the children really like is the “Monkey Power!” chant that we use as a focus and to bring smiles to their faces!
「モンキー・パワー！！」はモンキーズのとっておきの歌です。この歌には集中を促す力と皆を笑顔にする力があります。サークルタイムでは必ず歌います。
Being able to write the full alphabet, and even being able to write entire words, is a goal that we will be striving towards as we play and learn through the year. By mixing study with play, we are teaching the children how to trace lines, and how to exercise their fingers with crayons so they can hold a pencil properly!
ライティングの時間には、クレヨンを使って点線なぞりや塗り絵をします。楽しみながら、鉛筆を握るまでに手や指の力を十分に培います。
Before anything else can happen though, we need to build friendships! By playing together, building together, and working together, we can form those friendships that can last a lifetime!
共に遊び、考え、学ぶことを通して交友関係を広げていきます。写真はマグネットが付いたおもちゃで、様々なものを作ることができ想像力が養われます。数には限りがありますが、同じような形で数も分かりやすいのでこども達の間でシェアする姿がよく見られます。
We also are working towards the building of basic skills and vocabulary. Here the children who moved up from Nursery class can really show their skills, and the new children can also show us what they learned before coming to school! Here we are learning about colors before doing a fun matching and memory activity.
カラーメモリーゲームは、こども達の好きな活動の一つです。いわゆる神経衰弱なのですが、こども達は一人当たり一枚だけしかめくれません。他のこどもがめくったカードをよく見て覚えておき、自分の番がくれば同じ色のカードを見つけるのです。
This game helps the children with three important skills. Focus, memory, and teamwork! By taking turns, the children look, remember, and adjust to what their friends did. One turns over a card to show the color on the other side, and the next child has to try and remember, or guess, which card has the matching color! Remember which card is pink when they are flipped over again, and which card is red too, so you can make that match! Good luck everybody! Let’s play Memory!
前にめくった子と同じ色を見つけたときのこどもの笑顔は輝きます。「やったね！」二人は嬉しそうに先生とハイタッチします！
様々な活動を通して、モンキーズのみんながお互いを理解し、受け入れていくことを手助けできればと思っています。モンキー・パワー！

Rabbits @ 高槻茨木校
This months we want to show you what the Rabbits did for our craft day! The students were all excited to get their hand dirty!
今回のブログでは、新Rabbitクラスでの初めてのフィンガーペイントプロジェクトをご紹介します！
First things first. We have to wear our smocks! Some of our friends had a little trouble getting them on by themselves but we say "Help please!"
名前を呼ばれたら、手を挙げて"I'm here!" みんな自分でスモックを着れるかな？
What colors are we going to use? Red and white! What color do we get when we mix everything together? mix mix mix......
白と赤の絵の具を混ぜるとピンクができる事が分かりました！
Pink!
At first we were a little careful about getting our hands dirty but once we got started we all had so much fun!
両手に絵の具をつけて、ペタペタペタ。白い紙にみんなのピンク色の手形がたくさん！
Pink pink everywhere! "Look! Look!" The Rabbits were excited to show us their pink hands!
「手がピンク色の人～！」「はーい！」
"Let's cover the whole paper!"
We were sliding, patting and moving our hands around to cover everything! When it dried it was ready to go on our wall and...
みんなスモックに絵の具がついても気にせず、とても楽しくフィンガーペイントができました。
Tada! We all worked together and made a beautiful sakura tree in our room! Good job rabbits!
大きな桜の木の完成です！

Zebras @ 高槻茨木校
This month we had to make baskets for the Easter party. Most of our new Zebra friends haven’t had their own craft box before, so there were many things to learn. We need to take care of our own craft materials. It is important for us to learn to do it by ourselves.
4月、クラスではイースターパーティーのエッグハントで使うバスケット作りをしました。
ほとんどの子どもはZebrasになり今日初めて自分のクラフトボックスを使います。クラフトボックスに嬉しそうに見とれてしまうこどもたち！
新しい自分の持ち物に責任を持ち、大切に使う最初の経験として、すごく大事な一歩が踏み出せたと思います。
Which two colours would you like to use to make the handle?
バスケットのハンドルに使うワイヤーモールです。
“どの色とどの色にしようかな？”
We tried to draw a face for our Rabbit baskets!
ウサギの顔を描きます。
Let’s choose ears and use our glue to attach them! There are so many patterns to choose from!
顔が描けたら耳をノリづけしてみよう！
A nice round pom-pom makes for a good Rabbit tail.
まるいシッポもくっつけて。
Look! We made a cute bunny basket for our eggs!
かわいいバスケットの出来上がり！！
This year we will take care to make a lot of beautiful crafts and have a lot of fun making them too. It’s going to be very exciting.
これからもクラフトを通して楽しみながら指先の練習していきたいと考えています。
