KINDERGARTEN
Daily schedule
The teacher will welcome you with a smile. Encourage children to greet each other politely.
One student acts as a facilitator each time, checking classmate's attendance, greeting them, and confirming their schedules. They also rhythm exercises and sing songs. The facilitator changes each time. The facilitator students develop independence and leadership skills through this experience. The teacher also uses this time to check the health of the students.
Students eat right amount of healthy snack.
Using the learn through playing method, children learn letters, language, thinking skills, rhythmic activities, sciences, colors, cooking and more. It is a fun time for the child and feels like play. Because they can immerse themselves in it like it's play, they learn very quickly.
Children will enjoy outdoor play in our huge green playground every day. Because outdoor play provides more stimulation than indoor play, it has a positive effect on early childhood brain development. We have 5 aims to outdoor play as below:
|
1
|
Promote physical development. Build a healthy and strong body. |
|
2
|
By playing outside with friends, children learn skills such as communication and collaboration. |
|
3
|
At times, children may get into trouble with their friends. At that time, children have to find a solution among themselves. Through conflict, they learn problem-solving skills. |
|
4
|
By challenging the playground equipment, children will develop their motivation and curiosity. Repeated challenges will lead to increased self-esteem and self-confidence. |
|
5
|
Since outdoor play provides much stimulation on children's brain, it will grow children's intellectual skills and cognitive skills, especially spatial recognition. |
They eat lunch by themselves using spoons and forks. Eating independently is the starting point for future independence. Teachers support and guide children to eat by themselves. (For the sake of children's development, milk is not allowed. It is important for children's development to chew and eat rice by themselves. Our lunch is prepared by our Japanese head chef.)
We encourage students to brush their teeth after lunch as well.
GROUP ACTIVITY FOR COMMUNICATION, COLLABORATION AND CHARACTER BUILDING
In a huge hall, they play the same games together with their friends from other classes as well. Children of different ages play well together and learn cooperation, communication skills, manners, and courtesy. They also learn to be more interactive with others by interacting with many friends. Especially when playing with a ball, children develop their thinking skills by making decisions based on their spatial awareness.
There will be 3-4 play learning stations in the room. Each station has a different theme, such as art, blocks, reading, or crafts. Unlike the style where the teacher teaches one theme to everyone, the children can choose their favorite station and play with it on their own. They immerse themselves in play at their favorite station, following their own curiosity. This method encourages independence and self-reliance. It also helps them acquire language and thinking skills very quickly.

The student facilitator greets the students and all discuss their impressions of the day. This fosters communication, cooperation, expression, and leadership. They also learn to clean up after themselves and their surroundings.
We say our goodbyes and head home. The teacher will tell you how the children did that day.
