Coomunity Helper: Police



The Traffic Police Officer came to school. Interesting and sometimes a bit scary to see the children crossing the road on their own. It is all part of the growing process... And of our inquiry too!!

Children and their routines

Children at Library. Friday morning...
The Listening centre is one of the favourite ones.
I also have to register Kiga 1's first assembly. They did a very good job!


Our Community Helpers





Children working at the learning centres. Reading the room, Math, Role play (shop) and writing the room. The afternoons are unit and/or centre based work moments.

Helping Hands unit of Inquiry...





We went for a walk in Wallisellen (our neighborhood) to find out who works there. We, decided, to majke our community map.
Here, also, is our circle of respect, with some of our class rules. It works really well!

Helping Hands unit of Inquiry











Our first unit of inquiry, "Helping Hands" (community helpers) is a great topic to start the school year. We've been talking about who works us at our school community, how we could also help and the all the neighborhood workers. It has been very interesting! We've invited Ms. Susanne (school's secretary) and Mr. Butler (the principal) to tell us what they do to help us to learn. Kiga 1 was, of course, also invited!!!

New Unit of Inquiry ; Super Senses

We will start our second unit of inquiry, of this school year. Super senses! It is a very interesting and hands-on theme to work on. I love it and the children, for sure, will love it too!


5 Senses Poem

We use five senses every day
To help us learn and play.
See, hear, smell, touch, taste.
We do these every day.
