Apart from gaining knowledge through thematic and Montessori learning, children also learnt about PRAISE (Perseverance, Reflectiveness, Appreciation, Inventiveness, Sense of wonder & curiosity, and Engagement.
In the month of November, children learnt about being appreciative.
A few sets of painting (abstract work) were printed out and displayed randomly in the class.
Children were grouped of 2s or 3s and had to go around observing the artwork.
There children were in a vertical group (K1s & K2s) and they had to discuss about the artwork.
Appreciation
Children with a sense of appreciation recognise that everyone has different and unique qualities. They listen to the views of others and show respect for them.

The children were engaged in discussing the details of the abstract artwork with each other. They were encouraged to speak their own view of the abstract art with their partners.
: Abstract art uses a visual language of shape, form, color and line to create a composition which may exist with a degree of independence from visual references in the world.
Thereafter, children were assigned to do their own abstract art. Look at how busy they were! Once they were done, they showed their abstract artwork to their friends. Apart from appreciating each others' artwork, children also learnt that they have to be respectful when others were presenting their work.
These were some of the abstract artwork done by our young artists, the Kindergarten children!
