What a wonderful year we have !!
We have been through so many exciting activities together. This year is different from the past. This is the first year for Prep to cover six trans-disciplinary themes which are Who We Are, Where We Are In Place And Time, How We Express Ourselves, How The World Works, How We Organize Ourselves, and Sharing The Planet.
To support all those themes, we had some excursions. We went to Bogor Raya Sport Club to interview people who work there, Kuntum Nursery to learn about stages of plant growth, and CICO to learn about saving the resources.
We also now have a native speaker (Mrs. Glyn) who is teaching Language covering reading, writing, story telling, etc. Besides Language, Prep students learned other subjects (UOI, Math, Bahasa, PE, Art, Music, Religion, Computer). In UOI, they learned about parts of the body, family and traditions, expressing feelings using different materials. growing plants, school community, and caring for the resources with Ibu Frida and Ibu Wulan.
In Math, Ibu Wulan and Ibu Rosy used water and sand to explain addition and subtraction.
In Bahasa, Ibu Yoke and Ibu Frida taught the students how to read and write simple words and sentences. For PE, Ibu Erlin had a variety of activities, such as balancing, running, jumping, climbing, dancing, and playing Indonesian traditional games. Ibu Eka and Ibu Erlin were responsible for art this year. With the students, they made art and craft related to the Unit of Inquiry. With Ibu Ertha, Prep students learned how to play keyboard and sing songs nicely.
In Religion, they studied more about their own religions (Pak Jan-Christian, Pak Bambang-Catholic, Pak Nurdin-Islam, Ibu Yuvida-Buddha, and Ibu Adriani-Hindu). The students also learned how to type using 10 fingers during computer time with Pak Eki.
We believe that this school year was such a successful year with all the support from the students, parents, specialist teachers, and other school community members.
Thank you all !!
