This month we had special guests involved with our activities. Our LFSF sports teams had an outstanding month performing well on the field and on the court. Both our Camp Asia and Into the Wild Fall camps were a huge success with positive feedback from both parents/students and staff. We also hosted a successful Rugby World Cup Final screening on Saturday 31st with over 100 participants from our community. The department also announced the upcoming JIJ to our grade 9/10 students to be held in Singapore, June 2016 and confirmed our participation in the TREFLE Rugby World Cup event for our 4th,5th and 6th graders to be held in Casablanca, Morocco in May 2016.

Super Soccer Stars 4-5yrs

BASEBALL

The baseball class has been enjoying the warm days and dry field this month by improving the 4 major skill sets for this sport: Running, throwing, fielding (catching), and hitting. Technique in each category is imperative to grow in the sport. As a team sport, your catch is only as good as your teammate's throw. We practice hand positions, footwork and body alignment to improve accuracy and make the game fun for all on the field. We do timed runs around the bases to help improve lines and running technique. Most of all, we end each practice with a quick game where each player gets at least two at-bats. L’AES Baseball profite des journées ensoleillées et des bonnes conditions de terrain ce mois ci et a pu se concentrer sur l’enseignement des 4 habiletés majeures: la couse, le lancer, la reception et la frappe. Les élèves doivent obligatoirement passer par ces apprentissages pour s’améliorer. C’est un sport d’équipe et la reception est dépendante du lancer du coéquipier. Les enfants ont travaillé la position de leurs mains, fait un travail de déplacement, l’alignement corporel afin de devenir plus régulier et que le jeu en soit d’autant plus motivant ! Ils ont aussi travaillé le sprint entre chaque base et améliorer leurs techniques de course. Chaque séance se termine par un petit match ou chaque joueur peut passer 2 fois a la batte.

Sausalito Campus

The focal point at this age group is for your child to become comfortable with the ball by developing soccer skills such as dribbling, shooting and the introduction of passing. Every 4-5 year old Super Soccer Stars class includes dynamic activities, which involve dribbling technique and moves to promote confidence with the ball. The primary focus for this age group is body movement with the ball and your child will be introduced to juggling and other skill building activities. The concepts of teammates and teamwork are also introduced. VENEZ ESSAYER LA SESSION PROCHAINE!

This month in Play-Well's Mind, Craft, Build Lego class we have completed the following projects. Boat, Biomes, A Steve, Non-Motorized Tanks, Mining & Mine Carts, Trading Post & Village, Haunted House. Free Build included a pyramid, villages, creeper, mobs and space ships.

ASHBURY Le Grand Maître d’armes, René Geuna a passé quatre semaines à travailler avec les compagnons d’armes du LFSF. Lors de son stage, il établit de nouvelles techniques et méthodes pédagogiques permettant à nos élèves de progresser au haut niveau de compétitions d’escrimes. Formé à l’Ecole Militaire du Fort Carré d’Antibes au Bataillon de Joinville, le Maître Geuna fut le pionnier de la leçon collective en escrime. Chevalier des palmes académiques, médaille d’or de la jeunesse et des sports, entraineur du bataillon de Joinville, il fut aussi champion de France au sabre, Capitaine de l’équipe de France et fondateur de l’Amicale Tarbaise d’Escrime. Il format de nombreux champions du monde et champions olympiques.  

Escrime

In our Yoga classes this month we learned a number of animal poses, went on imaginary travel to the moon with our magic carpet, we visited many cultures and made make believe sushi and pizza ... We learned to pay attention to our friends when they talked and while we did team poses, we noticed the sounds around us and we got stronger by practicing frog and spider poses.

Soccer

U5/6

Another Fall season is wrapping up for Soccer! As the season approaches its end, one of the most important things we can take out of it besides all the learning and fun, is the level of each team. Team U7 has proved to be a strong, committed group of players, and will move to Boys advanced division for Winter and Spring. All teams have shown progress in their skills and abilities, and teams U8,U9 and U10 are bound to become a strong group of athletes for future leagues in Middle School. We have a couple of new players joining some teams and also a new assistant coach for Team U7 : Coach Alon Moshonov. Be ready for the next newsletter, where we’ll disclose the most committed players of this season!

YOGA

ORTEGA CAMPUS

This month in yoga we learned foundation poses, sun salutation, mindfulness meditation, friendship basics, self -respect and compassion. What a great moment after a busy week of school! Ce mois-ci en Yoga, nous avons appris les bases du yoga, la salutation du soleil, la Méditation de la pleine conscience, les bases de l’amitié, du respect des autres et de la compassion. Quel bon moment après une semaine d’école charge!

IT’s CAMPING TIME! CAMP ASIA PreK

Une trentaine d’ enfants des petites et moyennes sections d’Ashbury et de Sausalito ont découvert la culture asiatique. Sous la direction d’Eliane, Patricia, Sarah et Antoinette, Ils ont fabriqué des chapeaux de paille pour aller se promener. En passant sur le petit pont rouge, ils se sont émerveillés devant les magnifiques couleurs. Ils n’ont pas eu peur des dragons. Ils étaient très fiers de leurs lanternes. Revetus de leur kimono, ils ont admiré les bourgeons du printemps. Ils ont fait la connaissance d’Hannah qui leur a enseigné les bases du cirque chinois. Ils ont fait tenir des assiettes sur leurs têtes, travaillé avec des rubans, travailler l’equilibre, joué avec les cerceaux, et jonglé avec des foulards. Pendant la lecon d’Aikido de Rachida, ils nous ont montré leur force et volonté de réussite avec beaucoup d’éclats de rire. Chaque jour, les enfants ont pu apprécier des gourmandises asiatiques lors du goûter.

INTO THE WILD The camp Into the Wild was a great success! The children were very excited about all the discoveries throughout the week. From watching birds on Crissy field to walking under bat rays and sharks at the aquarium of the bay. Children were introduced to riding horses in Olema and were able to hike and camp under the woods in China Camp State park. On the campus, we created a beautiful mural all bout the local wild life, a big mobile with origami local creatures and we got to have our own nature booklet. We finished the camp with a super fun treasure hunt!

CAMP ASIA Un camp définitivement tourné vers l’Asie ou 25

enfants ont pu expérimenter des arts martiaux (“attention au

sabre!”), la cuisine asiatique (“miam le riz

gluant!”), les instruments et la musique asiatique, voir une démonstration de Samourais, et faire
