An art lesson for TK B (Kindergarten B) at Al Siddiq International was conducted on Wednesday, 29th April 2026 in the classroom. The activity involved all TK B pupils in a calm yet enjoyable atmosphere. The teacher prepared an activity that not only encouraged creativity but also developed essential basic skills for children’s growth. This activity aimed to train children’s concentration in following instructions and to develop fine motor skills through paper-folding tasks. Using origami, the children were guided to create a simple 3D umbrella. The activity was designed to help them focus on each step while improving hand–eye coordination. The lesson began with the teacher inviting the children to recall their previous topic on weather. From the various types of weather they had learned, the discussion was then directed towards rainy weather. The children were encouraged to think together about what is needed when it rains, eventually identifying an umbrella as one of the essential items. After that, the children began making umbrellas using origami paper. They were given the freedom to choose colours according to their preferences, resulting in unique creations. Working in small groups, the children followed the teacher’s step-by-step instructions to fold the origami into 3D umbrella shapes. Once the umbrellas were completed, the children continued the activity by attaching their origami creations onto drawing paper that they had previously prepared with a rainy-day theme. This activity helped them connect their artwork with the concepts they had learned, while also providing space to express their imagination. Through this lesson, the children not only learned to create artwork but also developed patience, the ability to follow instructions, and teamwork skills. The supportive classroom environment boosted their confidence in creating, making the learning process both enjoyable and meaningful.By Inka Amalia, S. Pd

A mathematics lesson for TK B (Kindergarten B) at Al Siddiq International was conducted on Tuesday, 28th April 2026 in the classroom. The activity was attended by all TK B pupils in an active and enjoyable atmosphere. From the very beginning, the teacher had prepared learning aids to help the children understand the material in a more concrete and accessible way. The main objective of this lesson was to introduce the concepts of sequential counting and simple arithmetic addition. This material serves as an important foundation for children as preparation before entering primary school. With an age-appropriate approach, the children were expected not only to memorise numbers but also to understand their meaning. The activity began with a group game involving direct interaction. The teacher invited the children to stick pictures of raindrops onto an umbrella that had been prepared. Each child was asked to attach a number of raindrops according to the teacher’s instructions, allowing them to learn counting step by step while playing. Through this activity, the children appeared enthusiastic and found it easier to understand the concept of sequential counting. They also learned to cooperate with their group members, take turns, and follow instructions properly. The teacher provided guidance gradually so that each child could participate without feeling rushed. After the game, the activity continued with completing worksheets on single-digit addition. This exercise helped the children strengthen their understanding of simple addition. By combining play-based learning with written practice, the lesson became more balanced and effective in supporting the development of the children’s numeracy skills.By Inka Amalia, S. Pd

On Thursday, 23 April 2026, the children of TK B Al Siddiq took part in a learning activity that was different from their usual lessons. The activity involved a word-search game using a smart board in the classroom. This was because the computer laboratory was being used by students of SD Al Siddiq to carry out the Academic Competency Test (TKA). The learning atmosphere appeared much livelier, as the children were highly enthusiastic from the very beginning of the activity. This game was designed to help children learn to read in an enjoyable way. With the attractive visual display of the smart board, the children found it easier to recognise letters and form words. They did not simply sit quietly, but actively thought and worked together with their classmates. Before the game began, the teacher divided the children into four groups. Each group consisted of three to four children. This arrangement was intended to ensure that every child could participate and help one another. Afterwards, the teacher opened the Wordwall link displayed in split-screen mode, allowing two groups to play simultaneously. During the game, each pair of groups competed to complete the word-search task correctly within the allotted time. The children looked excited as they tried to find the answers as quickly as possible. They discussed ideas, pointed at the screen, and gave each other suggestions to discover the correct words. This activity not only developed reading skills, but also taught teamwork and self-confidence. The children learned to be brave enough to try, to accept results, and to support their teammates. With such an enjoyable atmosphere, the learning process became more meaningful and far from boring. Through this activity, it is hoped that the children will become even more interested in learning to read. Interactive learning methods such as this have proven effective in increasing children’s interest and participation in classroom activities. Teachers were also able to observe the children’s progress directly in a more relaxed yet effective manner. By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

The Swimming Enrichment activity is one of the outdoor learning programmes attended by the children of TK Al Siddiq International. This activity is designed to provide a learning experience that is both enjoyable and beneficial for the physical and mental development of children from an early age. The activity was held at Waterclub Permata Taman Cikunir on Tuesday, 21 April 2026. The comfortable and safe venue allowed the children to learn swimming more freely and confidently. The supportive atmosphere also helped the children feel happy throughout the activity. Swimming offers many benefits for young children. In addition to strengthening muscles and improving body coordination, swimming also helps to enhance balance and build courage when in the water. This activity can also develop independence, increase self-confidence, and serve as a healthy and enjoyable form of recreation. The children travelled together from school by car, already dressed in their full swimming attire. Upon arrival at the venue, they were welcomed by Miss Vita, who acted as the swimming coach. The presence of an experienced instructor helped ensure that the activity ran safely and in an organised manner. The session began with a warm-up to prevent injuries, after which the children prepared to enter the pool. They practised leg swings, followed by jumping into the pool. Afterwards, the children received coaching in turns to learn how to swim using the correct techniques. The activity was carried out with great enthusiasm and joy from all participants.By Inka Amalia, S.Pd

On Friday, 17 April 2026, Al Siddiq International Kindergarten held the distribution of Mid-Semester 2 reports. The activity took place in each classroom in an orderly and comfortable atmosphere. Parents attended according to the schedule previously provided by the teachers, ensuring that the process ran smoothly without overcrowding. The report distribution involved all pupils from Kindergarten A and Kindergarten B. Each parent came to receive their child’s learning progress report directly from the class teacher. This moment served as an important opportunity to understand how far the children had progressed during the ongoing semester. The purpose of the mid-semester report distribution was to provide an initial overview of each child’s development, both academically and non-academically. At the kindergarten level, assessment does not solely focus on recognising letters or numbers, but also includes social and emotional development, independence, as well as motor skills. Through this report, parents are able to understand their child’s strengths while also identifying areas that still require guidance. In addition, this activity aimed to strengthen communication between teachers and parents. Teachers were able to convey their observations from the classroom directly, while parents had the opportunity to discuss, ask questions, and share information about their child’s development at home. This collaboration is essential to ensure that the child’s educational process is aligned between school and family environments. With a scheduled distribution system, each parent was given sufficient time for a private discussion with the teacher. This created a more conducive atmosphere, allowing for focused attention on each child’s individual needs. Through this activity, it is hoped that parents will gain a deeper understanding of their children’s development and continue to support their learning effectively at home.By Inka Amalia, S. Pd
