May 24th Edition of
The Kindergarten Class News
Hi everyone, we had a very fun week!
Monday was a holiday, so no school.
On Tuesday the kids used their knowledge of letter sounds to figure out mystery words! It was a fun activity.We also learned about the life cycle of the butterfly and started learning about the value of Canadian coins. That afternoon thekids had their last Nature Art class with Lisa. This time we worked on drawing shadows. The Nature Art books went home on Wednesday.
Wednesday was fun day! In the morning we had our last dance lesson in the gym, practiced printing and wrote in our journals. In the afternoon the kids in grades K-3 enjoyed fun day! They rotated through different stations like water relays, face painting, an obstacle course and so on. Everyone had a blast! Thanks to all of the parents who came to help out.
On Thursday we practiced skipping with jump ropes in the gym, worked on symmetry in art and went to Music. Later the class enjoyed centres, helped care for the garden and had forest play.
Friday was a school day and also Jump Rope for Heart. Thanks to all of you who sent in donations for this good cause. The kids had another fun morning participating in this event. Later the SIMS band came to perform for the school. It was nice to see what some of the older kids are learning to do.
We will be going on a field trip to Ruckle Park on June 4th. Permission slips went home on Wednesday. Please return both the green and white form by Monday. The trip is organized by the Salt Spring Conservancy and is always a great day of learning and adventure. Also, please be sure to have your child arrive at school on time on this day, as we will be getting organized to leave right away.
