With Year 2 students we are starting to get busy writing! Great job stretching your bubble gum.
Yoga in the gym was so much fun and relaxing.
New Lego toys delivered! So much fun creating and building.
On Friday, we had time to meet up with some grade 6 friends to do some nature rubbings and have some free play time!
Hope you have a wonderful Thanksgiving weekend.
Today we started creating our hand turkeys! It was so fun to paint each student’s hand.
In math, we are focusing on numbers now. Today we discovered 1 and 11.
Perfect weather for outdoor discovery!
We love practicing our letters. Mrs. Entwistle and I pull small groups to help them learn how to write the letters we are focusing on. You will see these sheets come home. Please put them in their reading folders. We will be putting the Ii in for you.
Students love the sand table!
So much pattern fun this week!
We are learning how to spell our names and the names of our friends.
Today we took some time to plant some daffodil and tulip bulbs in our garden. We talked about turning over the soil, roots and shoots. I didn’t get too many pictures as my hands were covered in dirt. 🙂
Look under the calendar tab.
Each day is very busy in Kindergarten! In math, Mrs. Entwistle is focusing on patterns with students. They have covered AB and ABC patterns. A great activity to do at home is to look for patterns in our environments.
In Language, we are exploring letters and their sounds. We are also working on writing our names. Today, we named the letters in our names and made our names with bingo dabbers!
On Friday, we had an opportunity to find exciting objects in nature with our grade 7 friends. After groups finished their lists they spent time playing together outside.
Math in nature! Students collected items outside in nature and then we sorted them into groups.
The nice weather has been so wonderful. We have spent extra time outside getting exercise and practicing playing cooperatively together.
Puzzle day was a hit. Good job working together boys!
We are working on being able to recognize our names, identify all the letters in our names and even how to write our names. 
Today we did math outside and practiced how to sort based on the types of clothes we were wearing, how our hair was done and many other factors.
It was a beautiful day to spend some extra time exploring outside. We found bugs, dug holes, made race car tracks and rode on scooters. With this good weather make sure to still use sunscreen. We will be out as much as we can before it gets colder.
In Math, students have been learning how to sort by colour, shape or size. They love exploring all the different objects they can sort.
During purposeful play time we get to see all kinds of creations built out of a variety of materials in the classroom. We love seeing the students work cooperatively to create awesome things!
Mrs. Entwistle froze some very cool toys in ice blocks last week. Students discovered that using salt you can melt ice to get out the treasures. They also used sticks and pippettes with warm water to break down the ice.
