Pre-Nursery | Colours and Shapes Make My World — Mills International Preschool 苗士國際幼稚園

PRE-NURSERY 預備班

Pre-Nursery students are adjusting to school quite well and show great enthusiasm in learning with their friends. What a fun month we’ve had exploring different shapes such as circle, triangle, square, rectangle, and diamond. We mixed colours and used sponges to paint shape monsters. Our young students are becoming confident using the glue sticks and matching different shapes of food on their tasksheets.

預備班的孩子能夠很快適應學校的生活，並表現出與同伴一起學習的極大熱情。我們度過了一個有趣的月份，探索了不同的形狀，例如：圓形、三角形、正方形、長方形和菱形。我們混合顏色並使用海綿來繪製形狀怪物。我們的預備班孩子變得越來越有信心使用漿糊筆，並能在工作紙上把不同形狀的食物進行配對。

During PE time, the children loved crawling through the tunnel and climbing on the climbing frame. They learned to be patient and wait for their turn, and also to be mindful of friends playing nearby.

在體育課期間，孩子們喜歡爬隧道，也喜歡在攀爬架上攀爬。他們學會了耐心等待，也學習了關注身邊玩耍的同伴。

This month, we had a great time watching The Kids On the Block puppet show and learning about healthy eating. We also celebrated Diwali by decorating artworks that were then added to our giant school Rangoli and enjoying lots of dancing, games, and storytelling.

這個月，我們度過了一段愉快的時光，觀看「街坊小子木偶劇場」的布偶戲並學習了健康飲食。我們還通過裝飾藝術品來慶祝排燈節，然後將這些藝術品添加到我們的學校的巨型藍果麗中，並享受舞蹈，遊戲和講故事的樂趣。

When lessons switched to online, students were engaged and sang our circle time songs, listened to stories, and searched for different shapes around their apartments.

當課程切換到網上學習時，學生參與其中並通過唱歌、聽故事，收集他們家裏的不同形狀一起學習。

We look forward to having the children back on campus and we remain grateful for your support during these challenging times.

我們期待著孩子們重返校園，在此充滿挑戰的時刻，我們感謝每一位家長的支持。

MANDARIN

Pre-Nursery students have been focusing on shapes during November. We’ve been exploring rectangular, square, circular and triangular objects through songs and games. The children have been matching up flash cards according to their shapes, constructing building blocks, and making creative collages using different shapes. They now recognise common shapes in Mandarin. The children really enjoy interacting with their peers and have been developing their social skills during class activities.

預備班的孩子們在十月時開始了「顔色和形狀的世界」這一主題的學習，在認識了常見的顔色之後，我們緊接著進入「形狀的世界」。我們通過兒歌和遊戲認識常見的形狀，例如「長方形」、「正方形」、「圓形」和「三角形」。在配對遊戲中，孩子們能夠將不同形狀的實物盒子與對應的字卡配對；在積木搭建遊戲中，孩子們懂得運用不同形狀的積木搭建房屋；在平面拼圖遊戲中，孩子們發揮自己的創意，用不同的形狀拼出各具特色的圖案……在遊戲過程中，孩子們基本都能聽懂老師所説的形狀，還有一部分孩子能夠跟隨老師用普通話説出形狀的名稱，由此可見他們在課堂上很專心認真。

十一月份是預備班孩子們進入幼兒園集體生活的第二個月份，他們已逐漸享受與同伴交流互動的樂趣。無論是在主題課堂上還是在自由活動中，孩子們都會以自己的方式主動與其他幼兒互動，小小的友誼之橋在他們心中慢慢地搭建起來了。
