The K/1 Class News


Happy Friday Everyone!

We continue to enjoy the warm weather, even if it is slightly unusual for this time of year! 

 

Monday was Thanksgiving so the school was closed.

 

On Tuesday KK returned for another session of The Circle where we talked about different feelings. It was our turn to present at the Whole School Meeting and a few brave kiddos talked about our sunflower inquiry project.

 

Wednesday, we wrote about what we might dress up as for Halloween. The K’s went on a pumpkin themed math hunt and the 1’s worked on a “number of the day” activity. We made pumpkin window art and decorated the room with a few spooky props! 

 

On Thursday Members of the fire department welcomed everyone with a pancake breakfast which was a fun way to start the day! The kids had a visit from the firefighters and learned about fire safety. There will be an open house this Saturday at the Ganges fire hall. If you need a new smoke alarm, stop by and pick one up for free!  

 

Friday was a school day and PJ day!  We worked on our printing, had our Oral Language Groups and welcomed Quinten in to teach us about the hummingbird (our class mascot!). As always, we went outside to learn and play in nature. 

 

Scholastic Reading Club book orders were sent home. These affordable books are a great way to help our class raise money for our classroom library!
