Bayrische Schulverpflegungstage 2019

Das diesjährige Thema „Mensa for future" hat viele Ideen in uns geweckt! Zusammen mit unseren Perle-Lernpartnern überlegten wir, wie wir unser heimisches Obst und Gemüse haltbar machen könnten. Unser Thema: „Jetzt geht`s ans Eingemachte!“
Bei einem Besuch auf dem Viktualienmarkt landeten verschiedene Kürbisse, kleine Gurken, unterschiedliche Apfelsorten, eine Quitte und faustgroße Walnüsse in unserem Korb. Wir überlegten uns leckere Rezepte und über drei Tage hinweg wurden un...

Reading Buddies

The third grade Amethysts have buddied up with the Pearls for a weekly tandem reading partnership.
The “Reading Buddies” programme was kicked off this year by the Amethysts writing a letter to their younger buddy and reading it aloud to them. The third graders then read a story to their Pearl buddy, solidifying their own fluency while modeling literacy skills. As the year goes on and the Pearls begin to learn to read themselves, they will also get the chance to read to their older buddy, ...

Boulderwelt am Ostbahnhof

Die Smaragde unternahmen im vergangenen Monat einen spannenden und interessanten Ausflug in die Boulderwelt am Ostbahnhof. In einem brandneuen Parkour konnten die Kinder sich Herausforderungen mit unterschiedlichen Schwierigkeitsgraden stellen. Sie nutzten den Ausflug auch um sich untereinander besser kennenzulernen und als Lerngruppe zusammenzuwachsen.

Spitzingsee Trip 2019

The seventh, eight, and ninth grades got to go on a trip to Spitzingsee from September 22-25, 2019.
On the morning of the September 22, the three learning groups met at the Hauptbahnhof and took the three-hour trip to the cabin with their belongings on their backs. Upon arriving, we got our rooms and got settled in. On the following day, we got to do some fun activities like box climbing. But, as it was raining, we headed back inside and enjoyed a relaxing time together.
The next day, we ...

Jules Verne Big Balloon Ball!

What happens when a clever third grade girl has a vision of having a grand school ball and has enough courage to write me as Head of Learning House about her idea and how to implement it?
The idea becomes reality!
After discussing the idea - and after more and more learning partners wanted to be part of the enterprise – I decided to found a “JVC Ball Planning Committee” during our annual créAktiva week consisting of children in grades 3-6. During the project week, the children plan...

A look back at the Easter holiday 2019

We started off our Easter holiday at JVC with a colorful splash. The learning partners used different techniques to make their own creatively dyed Easter eggs. Each learning partner made one egg that they could take home to save for a weekend Easter egg hunt. Speaking of hunting, the learning partners became detectives around Munich the next day during our city detective tour. Our little investigators found the local dragon at Marienplatz, discovered dozens of monks around the city, and learned ...

This term brings with it another round of fabulous fixed courses. Here are a few descriptions of the courses, but we offer about twice as many as you see here! With such a wide range of activities for the learning partners to choose from, we’re positive they will have a blast in Hort!
In Glück and Happiness, Frau Hermann guides the learning partners in discovering what makes them happy. Throughout the course they have been collecting memories and little trinkets to put in their own “happ...
