彼一米森林儿童学院的国际早期教育课程IEYC每个单元都有一个令人兴奋的主题和发展目标，结合英国国家早期基础阶段教育体系（EYFS）框架，基于整体探究和游戏教学方法，为满足儿童的个性化学习和发展需求而量身定制学习内容。通过多元文化培养和国际视野拓展，每个孩子都能在学业和情感上为成为未来的世界公民做好准备。

IEYC主题单元——华丽的虫子舞会 I IEYC Theme Unit - The Brilliant Bug Ball

7月里，彼一米森林托育学院T1海螺班的幼儿们通过IEYC课程单元《华丽的虫子舞会》，开启了一段充满欢乐的学习与实践之旅。该单元聚焦感官探索、精细动作发展与想象力游戏，带领孩子们走进奇妙的昆虫世界。每节课都致力于激发好奇心、丰富词汇量，并通过适龄游戏助力他们的各项能力实现里程碑式发展。

启发点：

昆虫救援行动

我们以 “救援果冻小虫” 的感官活动延续了这一主题。我们将玩具昆虫藏在冰凉的果冻中，让幼儿们用勺子进行 “救援”。果冻独特的质地和出人意料的触感，立刻吸引了他们的注意力。这个活动也成为深入虫虫主题的完美切入点，让幼儿们能以安全有趣的方式与 “昆虫” 互动。

激发好奇：

昆虫在这里，在那里，昆虫无处不在

7月我们开展了多项探索活动。“昆虫栖息地” 活动中，我们用沙土、树叶、草料等材料在室内还原微型自然环境，幼儿们用手触摸探索这些材质，还借助玩具昆虫想象它们在环境中的活动情景。“寻找隐藏昆虫” 时，幼儿们在户外游乐场搜寻藏匿的玩具昆虫，这项活动既促进了他们的积极参与，也提升了观察能力。

“罐中捉虫” 活动里，幼儿们用毛绒球和活动眼珠模拟昆虫，开展收集游戏。这个简单的 “狩猎” 游戏不仅吸引了他们的注意力，还强化了精细动作，促进了早期分类能力的发展。

创设学习环境：

昆虫在哪居住，昆虫在做什么

教室与户外学习空间均经过精心布置，为探索活动提供支持。我们引入多种材质以刺激幼儿感官、鼓励他们动手实验。在 “滑溜溜的蜗牛轨迹” 活动中，幼儿们用刷子将面粉、水与闪光胶的混合物，涂抹在裹着透明膜的桌面上，模拟蜗牛黏液。这种新颖的感官体验，激发了幼儿的好奇心与创造力。

整个7月里，教室里始终摆放着各种零散部件、手工材料和自然元素，支持幼儿进行精细动作游戏。皱纸蟋蟀拼贴、虫虫头冠、蛛网拼贴等活动，运用了撕碎的纸巾、扭扭棒、粘粘纸、纱线等材料，鼓励幼儿动手参与、自主表达，同时促进专注力的培养。

宏观视野

小小的生物，多多的学习

7 月的学习帮助幼儿们开始理解，昆虫是拥有不同身体部位、质地、栖息地和运动方式的小生物。通过反复参与昆虫主题的游戏和创意活动，他们学会了 “虫子”“腿”“触角”“粘滑”“头冠”“网” 等新词汇。歌曲、角色扮演和对话则以轻松有趣的方式，巩固了这些所学的概念。这个单元还支持幼儿的社交学习——他们在练习轮流玩耍、平行游戏和共同探索的过程中，也增强了自信心。

探索与表达

扭动、爬行、跳跃！

多项活动鼓励幼儿通过动作、色彩与质地表达自我。在 “扭动蠕虫绘画” 中，他们用煮熟的意大利面作绘画工具，探索面条移动时在纸上留下的痕迹；“虫印艺术” 里，幼儿们将玩具昆虫蘸上颜料制作彩色 “足迹”，从中观察因果关系。

“皱纹纸蟋蟀拼贴” 让他们把撕碎的绿色纸巾粘贴到蟋蟀轮廓中；“虫虫头冠” 活动中，他们用毛绒球、扭扭棒和活动眼珠装饰发带，把自己扮成小虫子。

“虫虫沙瓶” 活动融合了创造力与音乐，幼儿们将干意面装入透明瓶做成沙锤，再用扭扭棒和眼睛材料将其装饰成小虫角色。

结题实践——制作蛛网

7月的最后一个活动是蛛网拼贴：幼儿们用纱线和装饰材料制作蛛网，回顾7月所学的所有材质与概念，以多感官方式庆祝学习成果。幼儿们把纱线和装饰物粘在粘粘纸上制成蜘蛛网，还添加了 “被困” 的虫子，既重温了整个月接触过的各种质地与词汇，也锻炼了精细动作技能。最终，幼儿们带着对昆虫相关事物的熟悉感和愉悦的心情，圆满结束了本单元的学习！

随着本单元的结束，我们很高兴看到幼儿们在信心、创造力和好奇心方面的成长。他们对新的质地、材料和主题更加熟悉，也开始在不同种类的昆虫、它们的运动方式与栖息地之间建立联系。幼儿们在每节课上的热情参与，充分展现了感官丰富的探索性游戏对早期学习的强大支撑作用。我们为7月里所有的小发现和大进步感到骄傲！

Each Unit of BeeMee's IEYC Curriculum has an exciting theme and developmental goals. Combined with the UK National EYFS Framework, which is based on holistic inquiry and game teaching methods, learning is tailored to meet individual learning and development needs of children. Through multi-cultural development and international perspective each child is prepared academically and emotionally as future global citizens.

In July, the babies of T1 Conch Class at BeeMee Forest Nursery Academy embarked on a joyful and hands-on learning journey through the IEYC unit The Brilliant Bug Ball. With a strong focus on sensory exploration, fine motor development, and imaginative play, the unit introduced the children to the fascinating world of bugs. Each class was designed to engage curiosity, build vocabulary, and support developmental milestones in a playful and age-appropriate way.

Entry Point:

The Brilliant Bug Rescue

We began our month continuing the unit, The Brilliant Bug Ball, with a sensory-rich activity called Bug Rescue from Jelly. Toy bugs were hidden inside cold ice jelly, and the babies were given spoons to rescue them. This unique texture and the surprising sensation of the jelly immediately grabbed their attention and sparked excitement. It was the perfect entry into the continuation of our bug-themed unit, allowing the children to interact curiously with bugs in a playful and safe way.

Capturing Curiosity:

A Bug Here, A Bug There, Bugs Are Everywhere!

In July, the babies were presented with a variety of experiences that encouraged exploration and wonder about the world of bugs. In Bug Habitat, we recreated a miniature natural environment indoors using sand, leaves, grass, rocks, and sticks. The babies explored the textures with their hands and used our toy bugs to imagine how they might move and live in these materials. During Finding Hidden Insects, the class moved outdoors, and the babies were encouraged to run around the playground searching for toy bugs hidden in various places. This activity promoted energetic participation and observation.

In Bug in a Jar, we used pom poms with goggly eyes to help the babies visualise bugs, and then scattered more pom poms around the classroom for them to "collect" in jars. This simple hunting game captured their attention and imagination while reinforcing fine motor development and early categorisation skills

Enable the Environment:

Where Do Bugs Live, What Do Bugs Do

The classroom and outdoor learning spaces were thoughtfully prepared to support the babies' exploration. A wide range of textures and materials were introduced to stimulate the senses and encourage experimentation. In Slippery Snail Trail, babies used brushes to spread a gooey mixture of flour, water, and glitter glue onto a plastic-covered table, mimicking snail slime. This was a new and exciting sensory experience that encouraged curiosity and creativity.

Across the month, the classroom was filled with loose parts, craft materials, and natural elements that supported fine motor play. Activities like Crinkly Cricket Collage, Bug Crowns, and Sticky Web Collage made use of torn tissue, pipe cleaners, contact paper, and yarn to invite hands-on participation, self-expression, and concentration.

The Big Picture:

Small Creatures, Big Learning

July’s learning helped the babies begin to understand that bugs are small creatures with different body parts, textures, habitats, and ways of moving. Through repeated exposure to bug-themed play and creative activities, they learned new words like "bug," "legs," "antennae," "slimy," "crown," and "web." Songs, pretend play, and conversation supported these concepts in a relaxed and engaging way. The unit also supported social learning as the babies practiced turn-taking, parallel play, and shared exploration with growing confidence.

Explore and Express:

Wriggling, Crawling, Jumping!

Many of the activities encouraged the babies to express themselves through movement, colour, and texture. In Wiggly Worm Painting, they used cooked spaghetti as a painting tool, experimenting with the way the noodles moved and left marks on the paper. In Bug Prints, toy insects were dipped into paint to make colourful "footprints," helping the babies observe cause and effect.

Crinkly Cricket Collage gave them the chance to glue torn green tissue paper into a cricket outline, and in Bug Crowns, they decorated headbands with pom poms, pipe cleaners, and goggly eyes to transform into little bugs themselves.

The Bug Bottle Shakers class combined creativity and music, as babies filled plastic bottles with dry pasta to create maracas, then turned them into little bug characters using pipe cleaners and eyes.

Exit Point:

Making A Spider Web

To close the unit, the babies participated in the Sticky Web Collage, where they combined multiple materials and ideas from earlier in the month. They were encouraged to talk about the bugs they made, explore familiar textures again, and revisit the sounds, shapes, and concepts they had explored. This final activity gave them the opportunity to reflect on their experiences and celebrate their learning in a sensory, hands-on way. The babies left the unit with a sense of familiarity and joy in all things buggy!

As the unit comes to a close, it's been wonderful to see the babies grow in confidence, creativity, and curiosity. They became more familiar with new textures, materials, and themes, and began to make connections between different types of bugs, their movements, and habitats. Their enthusiasm and engagement during each class showed how powerful sensory-rich, exploratory play can be in supporting early learning. We're proud of all their little discoveries and big strides this month!
