February 27th Edition of
The Kindergarten Class News

Hi Everyone! What a week!
Sickness sure spread through the school this week and the attendance was very low.
Here are some highlights: 

Monday we continued learning about basketball in the gym and finished off our animal story workshops. You will see the finished products at the Student Led Conferences, the kids have really enjoyed this project. Later, we visited the library and went outside.

On Tuesday only 4 students were in attendance. The small class had another fun dance lesson from Robynn Scott, worked on compound words in our oral language groups and went to play lab. Later we took a nature walk to the bog and enjoyed the sunny afternoon.

Wednesday was Pink Shirt Day! It was great seeing the school support anti-bullying in this way. We made daffodil poem/art, went to math and had another turn at play lab. We also worked on identifying the beginning sound of words and played outside.

Thursday was another fun day. We worked more on compound words, played a fun math game involving shapes and had our gym time outside. In the afternoon we all enjoyed the Spring Showcase. There were many amazing acts and creations. Everyone loved it! 

Reminder:
March 5th will be an early dismissal day for the Student Led Conferences. This is a mandatory activity as it is considered your child’s report card. If you cannot make it on the 5th we will have to reschedule the following week. Buses will run as usual and will leave the school at 12:05pm. Please sign up for a time to meet, if you haven’t already done so.

Important dates to remember:
March 2 Field trip to Artspring
March 5 Early dismissal (12pm) for Student Led Conferences
March 14 First day of Spring Break
March 30 School back in session

Warmly,
