Today, the Kinder 2 class started their lesson with a nice walking warm-up followed by singing the “Hello” song.  Along with saying hello, they also had to stretch high and touch their toes.



Next was the monthly phrase.  This month, they are practicing saying “Excuse me,” and replying with “I’m sorry.” For today’s exercise, they were using a big stuffed ‘George’ and passing it around.



Whoever had the ‘George’ had to say the phrase then pass it.  The next person then replied and carried on the process.



The children enjoyed passing the big ‘George,’ and spoke very well.

Afterward, the children sang “The Wheels on the Bus.”  They know the song well and can do the actions nicely.



From the wheels going round and round and the door going open and shut,



to the horn going beep beep and the people going up and down.



They love acting out the actions, and are singing more confidently.

Once the children had calmed down from their “bus ride,” they played a counting game. They formed themselves into teams and then one from each team stepped into the center.



The players had 10 seconds to collect as many blocks of the same color as they could.  The other children counted down, and when they got to zero they said “Stop!”



The teams then had to count their blocks. Big blocks counted as 2, and small blocks as 1.



They all made a great effort and help was there if needed.



Counting in two’s can be tricky, but everyone did very well.

When the blocks had been put away, they children then practiced asking each other questions. “What’s your name?” “How old are you?” “Do you like…?”  They formed themselves into pairs and took turns asking and answering.



They are great with asking names and ages, and they are getting more comfortable with asking other questions. “Do you like lasagna?” being a favorite amongst them.

And with that, the children sang one more song, the “ABC” song, then said good-bye.



A great job and much fun had by all today.  They like to say how they feel and love dancing and performing actions. Keep it up, everyone.
