Pre-Nursery | Up in the Sky
PRE-NURSERY 預備班
We kicked off the new year in great spirits and learnt about caring for our environment, animals and the people around us during our Care for All Things week. Our young students learnt about taking care of pets and made beautiful turtle artworks. They’ve also shown love and regifted their cared for plants to their loved ones.
我們在期待中開始了新的一年，並在「關愛週」的主題了解如何愛護環境、動物和周圍的人。我們年幼的孩子學習了如何飼養寵物，並製作了精美的烏龜美勞作品。孩子們展現了他們的愛心並向家人表達了對植物的關懷。
This month, our main theme was Up in the Sky. Students have learnt about the differences between the things we see during the day and during the night. We have also talked about daytime and night-time routines and our students made more beautiful artworks.
本月，我們的主要主題是「高高的天空」。學生們明白到我們在白天和黑夜所見事物的差異，我們還討論了白天和晚上的恆常活動，我們的孩子們還製作了更精美的美勞作品。
We miss traveling and getting on airplanes, so we pretended to travel to Okinawa with our class! We then made paper planes, kites and hot air balloons. They have had so much time flying all those objects in the sky.
我們雖然在現實中錯過旅行和坐飛機的機會，但是通過虛擬的情景我們和孩子們一起坐飛機去了沖繩！接著，我們製作了紙飛機、風箏和熱氣球。他們用了足夠的時間去探討天空中飛行的物體。
There are so many beautiful animals that soar through the sky, so the students learnt which animals can fly and made their own wings fly around their house with.
有這麼多美麗的動物在天空中飛翔，因此學生們學會了哪些動物能夠飛翔，並用自己製作的翅膀在房屋周圍飛行。
January was a month filled with lots of singing, dancing, art and storytelling.
一月是一個充滿歌聲、舞蹈、藝術和故事的月份。

January has come and gone so quickly. Due to COVID-19, students have continued remote learning from home. They have become more familiar with their peers and I am happy to see them interacting more.
時光飛逝，一轉眼學前班的孩子們已經開始了幼兒園第二學期的學習。由於疫情的影響，大家依舊是在家中與老師們進行網絡課堂的互動學習，但是孩子們已經逐漸熟悉班級裏的同學並樂於和同伴們打招呼，也更積極地和老師交流，這讓老師們覺得非常欣慰。
We began our new year by celebrating Care for All Things and the Pre-Nursery students focused on their family and friends. They listened to the stories, What is Love? and Everybody Needs Love, and learnt the song I Love My Family. Parents donated old clothes and toys to people in need, which set a good example to the children.
一月伊始，我們首先開展了全校性主題的活動「關愛身邊的一切」，學前班的孩子們著重學習「關愛家人和朋友」。孩子們聆聽了故事《什麽是愛》和《人人都要愛》，還學習了歌曲《我愛我的家》，家長們更是以身示範，將家中閑置的物品捐贈給有需要的人。
The students then moved to a new theme Up in the Sky. We explored different objects we can find in the sky. Through our online learning sessions and pre-recorded videos, students learnt sentences such as ‘There is sun in the sky’ and ‘I like birds’ in Mandarin.
在全校性主題結束之後，學前班的孩子們隨即進入了主題「天空中」的學習，大家跟隨著老師的鏡頭一起去看看「天空中有甚麽？」，透過視頻教學和網絡課堂的學習，孩子們能跟隨老師讀出「天空中有太陽」、「我愛小鳥」…等中文句子，學前班的孩子們真棒！
During periods such as these, it is vital that school and home continue to work together to ensure the students continue to progress. We thank you for your time and continued support of the school.
在這個特殊時期，學前班的孩子們之所以都能按時參與網絡課堂、完成各種工作紙和美勞活動，都是因為有家長們的耐心陪伴和用心引導，我們萬分感激學前班家長們對老師們和學校的支持！
