Today, the preschool children enthusiastically participated in a fish craft experience. The children were excited to use a variety of materials, including coloured paper, paint, glue, and decorative resources, to create their own unique fish. They carefully selected materials and shared their ideas as they designed and assembled their artwork.
Throughout the experience, the children engaged in open discussions about fish and life under the sea. They shared their knowledge about different sea creatures, where fish live, and the colours and features they observed. These conversations encouraged curiosity and helped extend the children's understanding of the natural world.
This creative experience supported the children's imagination, fine motor development, and problem-solving skills as they manipulated materials and made decisions about their designs. It also promoted language and communication skills through meaningful discussions with peers and educators about marine life and ocean habitats.

Exploring the Letter A in the Preschool Room ✏️🔤
Today, the children explored the letter A as part of their school readiness program in the preschool room. Educator Sujana introduced the letter and engaged the children in discussions about words and objects that begin with the letter A, such as apple, alligator, and ant. The children eagerly shared their own ideas and examples, demonstrating their growing phonological awareness.
The children were encouraged to practise free-hand writing the letter A, carefully forming the lines and recognising its shape. Through this experience, they developed their early literacy skills, letter recognition, and understanding of letter-sound relationships. The activity also supported fine motor development, pencil control, hand-eye coordination, and concentration.
This learning experience strengthened the children's confidence as emerging writers and supported their preparation for school by building foundational literacy skills in a fun and engaging way.
