 June 10th Edition of

The Kindergarten Class News


Hi Everyone, here are the highlights from our busy week!

 

On Monday we practiced our counting and printing the number 9. The kids wrote in their journals and practiced noticing details in a symmetry project. Later we enjoyed time in the forest.

 

Tuesday, we used our creative thinking to break down the number 7 and represent it in a variety of ways. We also learned more about what a community is and how many different people help a community operate. The class then went to music, and later we talked more about what plants are edible and which ones should never be eaten in our forest.

 

On Wednesday we talked about our favourite fruits and veggies, practiced doing a self-assessment of the core competencies and went to the library. Please return any overdue library books, as the library inventory is underway. 

 

On Thursday we combined math and art in a butterfly themed activity, practiced sorting the sounds ‘sh’, ‘th’ and ‘ch’ and went to Music. 

 

The class will be going on a fieldtrip this Monday! We will be taking the bus to and from Drummond Park in the afternoon with Ms. K’s class. We will leave the school at 1pm and return at 3pm. I’m sure the kids will be excited to ride the bus. If you can send in $2 to help pay for the bus ride, we would really appreciate it!

 

Unfortunately, due to the COVID-19 protocols/restrictions, we are unable to invite parents in to watch our Kindergarten graduation ceremony or do the end of the year picnic at Drummond Park.  Instead, I will be sending home a copy of the end of the year slideshow so you can enjoy it with your family. If it’s at all possible to pick up your child on the last day, I would suggest you do, as there will be a lot of stuff being sent home. It may be too much for the bus.

 

Important dates to remember:

June 14th Trip to Drummond Park

June 20th Father’s Day

June 24th Fun Day

June 29th Last day of kindergarten! 

 

Have a nice weekend,
