February 16th Edition of
The Kindergarten Class News
Hello everyone.
It was a very busy week!
On Monday we worked more on printing, practiced our basketball skills, and worked on letter knowledge. We practiced reading and made Valentine’s bags to hold our cards! It was a beautiful afternoon and we each chose a special tree in the forest. We will visit these trees often.
Tuesday was Valentine’s Day! The kids had a fun day. Thanks to the parents who sent in snacks to share, it always makes these days more special. The children enjoyed music and practiced counting and adding in math.
Wednesday was a half day to accommodate student led conferences. It was so nice watching the children demonstrate their learning for you! I could tell they were proud.
Thursday was a good day. The class used writing goals to help guide their writing in journals and I was pleased with the growth! Later we talked about how important it is to eat a variety of healthy foods and we came up with different fruits or veggies for every colour of the rainbow. The class went to music and Quinten led a game in the outdoor classroom.
Important Dates to Remember:
February 20 Family Day (no school)
February 22 Pink Shirt Day (to support anti-bullying)
February 24 School in session and it's "Formal or Funky" dress up day!
March 17-April 3 Spring Break
I hope you have a good long weekend!
Warmly,
