May 14th Edition of
The Kindergarten Class News
Hello Everyone, what a beautiful week. The mix of rain and sun is sure making our forest lush!
On Monday we continued our butterfly theme in writing and art. The kids wrote poems about butterflies and made beautiful butterfly symmetry paintings. We also played a yoga game in the gym and practiced printing the number 5.
Tuesday we had another session in our Oral Language groups and played insect themed letter/number bingo. Later, the class went to music and played in the forest.
On Wednesday I was in a morning meeting and the kids practiced their numbers in math, wrote in the journals and went to the library. Later we added to our nature art and played in the forest.
Thursday we brainstormed and wrote about what would be the best day of Kindergarten! We will be starting to fit in as many fun activities as possible to make the end of our year the best ever. We welcomed Kristen Lewis in to start our Thursday dance sessions! We moved and danced outside, and it was a lot of fun. Later we went up to Music and went to the forest/garden.
Friday was a school day! We had a super fun day. We had free choice in the gym, extra centres and began our “Cool Kid” of the day exploration. Each day one child gets to be the special child, and everyone fills their bucket with kind words about them. We also did a math/writing activity inspired by “The Grouchy Ladybug” and made Eric Carl inspired art. It was a full day!
