March 7th Edition of
The Kindergarten Class News

Hello Everyone, one more week to go until Spring Break!

This week on Monday we continued working on basketball skills, compound words and open-ended math questions. The kids also all proudly shared their animal storybooks as part of an “authors chair” scenario. We also went to the Library to check out new books. Please send back any overdue books so that your child can sign out a new book. 

Tuesday we had our last dance session until May. We also wrapped up our measurement unit and worked on our class story with Glen. In the afternoon we walked to the bog to check if it was still frozen. It was, but is melting.

On Wednesday we worked in our journals and later welcomed Johanna and Laura in to continue our salmon project, this time working with clay.  

Thursday was a half-day to accommodate the Student Led Conferences. We had free choice in the gym, went to music and practiced for the conferences. The kids worked hard to prepare for this day and took a lot of pride in sharing their growth and knowledge. Thanks for taking the time to come share in this experience with your child. 

Glen has been working with the class over the past number of weeks creating a story that is just about finished! We will be having a "book launch" party the first Tuesday after Spring Break (April 2nd) at 10:30am if anyone would like to hear the reading of the story.

Important dates to remember:
March 15 First day of Spring Break
April 1 School back in session
April 2 Class Story Book Launch (10:30am)


Warmly,
