Learning Updates for May.5-8 五月五日至八日

Hi Kindergarten Friends and Families,

We had a super fun week!

On Tuesday and Wednesday, we visited the Midnapore Fire Station. Please make sure to check out our photo link to see the amazing time we had!

In class, we learned the sight word “see” and continued practicing how to stretch out words—listening carefully to each sound and writing down the matching letters, especially focusing on beginning and ending sounds.

In Mandarin, we reviewed all the words we’ve learned so far and added a new one:“right (右)”. We also played a fun robot game where the students had to follow my directions in Mandarin while pretending to be robots!

We also made a special Mother’s Day gift for all our amazing moms. Thank you for everything you do!
母亲节快乐 — Happy Mother’s Day!

Wishing you a great weekend—see you next week!

亲爱的幼儿园小朋友和家长们：

这周我们过得非常开心！

星期二和星期三，我们参观了 Midnapore 消防局。请记得查看上面的照片链接，看看我们当时有多开心吧！在课堂上，我们学习了新的常见词 “see”，还继续练习“拉长”单词的技巧——认真倾听每一个语音，并写出相应的字母，特别是加强对开头和结尾音的识别与书写。

在中文课上，我们复习了目前学过的所有词语，还学了一个新词： “右（右边）”。我们还玩了一个有趣的机器人游戏，小朋友们扮演机器人，按照我用中文下达的指令移动身体！

我们还为亲爱的妈妈们制作了一份特别的母亲节礼物。感谢妈妈们一直以来的付出与爱！

母亲节快乐！Happy Mother’s Day!

Learning Updates for Apr.28-May.2 四月二十八日至五月二日

This week, we learned the sight word “and” and began practicing how to stretch out words—listening carefully to each sound and writing down the corresponding letters, especially focusing on beginning and ending sounds. We also worked on labeling items around the room and started learning what sentences look like.

In Mandarin, we reviewed all the words we have learned so far and learned how to say “left” (左). We also played speedy speaking games to practice giving and following directions.

Our Monday/Wednesday class had their in-school field trip this week—a Teacher’s Pet session where we learned all about how animals move. It was an exciting and educational experience!

Next week, on Tuesday and Wednesday, we will be going on our walking field trip to the fire station!

Wishing you a wonderful weekend—see you next week!

这周，我们学习了常见字 “and”，并开始练习“拉长”一个单词——仔细听每个发音，并写下对应的字母，尤其是注意单词的开头音和结尾音。我们还练习为教室里的物品贴标签，并开始学习句子的构成。

在中文课上，我们复习了目前学过的所有词汇，并学会了如何说“左边”（左）。我们还玩了“快速说一说”的游戏，练习听指令和说方向。

我们周一/三班的同学本周还参加了校内的实地学习活动——“Teacher's Pet”课程，孩子们学习了很多关于动物如何移动的知识，大家都非常兴奋和投入！

下周的星期二和星期三，我们将步行前往消防局进行实地学习！

祝大家周末愉快，我们下周见！
