Beads paintings

I took the idea from Deborah's one of her facebook's links, but I am kind of forgot when it is. Still use the same material as yesterday, the colored white glue paint. First time we put the paper in the used coke box then drop the paint on the center. Now we drop the beads then move the box forward-backward, right-left so the beads we will be rolling to every corner of the box. The paint will make unpredictable shape, lines, dots, etc. It is very fun coz noone know the painting result, will bring Picasso in the class.

Little finger that painting

Finger painting is the most common drawing acitivity in kindergarten, but as every year we've done it, we still find new thing about it or different material to make it.

Last year we use the ingredient from sago glue and today we use the glue for woodplex (not for PG class) , and the color we use is the food coloring. So it's safe for children.

K-B class color the ice cream, we add some textures after finish coloring. The texture on ice cream cone, so it's three dimensional-like. The finger painting help children to control their fingers, they can use their each finger tip with different colors, it's really challenging for them. Some of them can't do that, but we keep encouraging them to use at least 2 fingertips.

For K-A class is coloring the baloons, much more simple. After all finished, we take the drawing under sun. It takes 3 hours to make the drawing dry completely.

Cooking class ?

Sometimes funnythings are happened in kindergarten, especially in playing time, right after the meal time. Kids are always bringing toys to everywhere into the playgorund. Well after finished the playingtime, most of them are putting the toys back. Just few of them ignore to do that. It has already been 1 week, some kids do "the cooking class" in one of our toyhouses. No teacher pays attention of this, we just realize after everyone go home, we saw this beautiful small kitchen  :). I am always thinking to find out who did that, but I always forgot this. They know how to put stuff or arrange stuff in the right place so it's kind of interior designer do. Whoever are they (coz till today forgot to find out) we believe we already taught them well :)

Doctor 's visitng to school

Today's there is a doctor visit to our school, dr.Vita. To meet children and to talk to children about healthy and hygene. The kids are very interest about it, because we already told the kids that no need to afraid of doctor. The doctor is very kind. :) Alot of question that dr.Vita  asked. There is one question that answered by a child so cute. He is Kazio. Dr.Vita asks,"How many kind of doctor that it has?". Kazio answers," There are two kinds of doctors, a boy and a girl..........................". hahahaha everybody is laughing include dr.Vita. Of course after that we tell him that what dr.Vita means.

I've got mail, an idea from Mrs.Deborah J.Stewart

Finally.............we made it, with the help of other teachers which I designed it first. Now after a month, we made it, the postmail pockets for children that children can send letters each other by putting letters in their freinds' mailpockets :). Can't wait to start using it :). Thanks again Mrs.D.

Book's cover = home's situation

Recently, I realize that we already have been for 8 months  the children used the practice book. Some children still have their books in good shape, but only a few of them have their books just like this -------------------------------------->>> shape.
What a poor book, too bad that the children didnt keep you well enough,,,,,....?????? do you think this is the children's fault? Then I asked Euodia the one that has her books in good condition. "Why you so nice to the book, look at your book, it's still in good condition". She answered ," Well my mom always keeps an eye on me when I am working out my homeworks". After that I asked Arvio the one that has the "poor" books, and also had ever lost his books at home once," why your books are so dirty, and rip off all the way on the edges?" He answered me," Sorry sir, I will tell my mom to buy a new one, when she has time."  My poor Arvio, his parents dont have time for him at all at home. Sometimes he forgot to do his homeworks. Well I will prepare the brand new book for him. I hope his parents will pay attention for him as soon as well. It's a pity to see the reality, nowadays parents are so busy, everybody's so busy, no time at all...................

Score

In K-B class I give students score for the test every two months. Score 60-100, below 60 I just write 'study more' down. Of course there some kids have a nice score this time but not the other time. Only few of them have a good score everytime. One day I have a student named Janice, the last month's little test she had score under 60, and my other student named Vinca always had a good score. This time little test, I also kind of surprised that Janice got perfect score ,a 100. I said 'good Janice, nice job'. And funniest thing that Vinca were asking Janice with a surprised mimic,"Really Janice? How come you can get 100? " . OMG I just realize that we have a competition in here, and they take attention to their competitors wow... Kids are unbelieveable, with score we believe that kids are being motivated to reach and to get what they want. Study hard will get good result. This only take effect to K-B class, it's not for K-A and P-G class. They still don't understand of it. :)
