毎日寒い日が続いていますね。この日の小さい子のクラスでは「冬服(Winter chloth)」について学んでいました。「What kind of clothes do you wear when you go outside on cold day?(寒い日に外へ出かけるとき、どんな服を着るかな？)」季節や天気によって服装を変えること、自分で体感して必要な生活力も英語で学んでいきます。

自分で着用するのは難しい？できるかな？と一生懸命トライする姿に先生たちも成長を感じていました。大きい子のクラスでは毛糸でセーターを作っていました。好きなように毛糸を通し、自分だけの洋服を作りました。

It’s been cold every day lately. In the little kids class that day, they were learning about “winter clothes.” “What kind of clothes do we wear when going outside on cold days?” They’re learning about changing clothes according to the season and weather, and gaining essential life skills through personal experience—all in English. Is it hard to put them on by yourself? Can you do it? The teachers could see their growth in the children’s earnest efforts as they tried their best. In the big kids class, they were making sweaters with yarn. They threaded the yarn however they liked, creating their very own clothes.
