Hello Everyone!

Today was a very active day at PiPi International School. We had an unusually large amount of students here today. Fortunately, the staff was in full force and ready for the day.

Today's focus was the upcoming holiday of Easter. (April 1st) The egg is one of the primary images of Easter. We hid some construction paper eggs around the room, and read a story about Easter eggs. The children had to search the room for the eggs. This will prepare them for the actual Easter Egg hunt we will have at the beginning of April.





The children found all the eggs, then discovered the surprise inside. There was a chocolate rabbit inside each of the eggs!





We enjoyed some songs and dance after the morning circle. The flashcard session was very energetic. There was a heavy emphasis on phonics and color identification.



We continued the discussion about eggs during story-time. We talked about how eggs are decorated during Easter. We then decorated eggs for our craft. The children enjoyed drawing on their paper eggs with crayon. No two eggs looked alike. The eggs are now proudly on display in PiPi's front window. The eggs are sitting in their baskets.




Today was bread day. The children enjoyed bread during lunch. There was a tie between marmalade and chocolate for the most popular spread.




The children finished their workbooks and then enjoyed some playtime. Clay was a very popular choice today, as well as the magnetic shapes. A few of the kids are still in pirate mode, and enjoyed dressing up as pirates.
