Newsletter #31

 May 16th Edition of

The K/1 Class News


Hi Everyone, here we are nearing the end of May already! Please make sure you send back your sold and unsold raffle tickets so we can collect them. 

 

We started having fun with the rainbow parachute in the gym. A great lesson on collaboration and turn taking! We have been learning about edible plants in the forest and garden and are clear that children need to ask an adult before eating the plants. 

 

We have started our family traditions project. It’s so fun learning about all the different things families do that mark the seasons. If you have yet to fill out the form about what your family does each season, there is still time. Please send it in. This is an ongoing project. 

 

Our caterpillars have all taken the chrysalis form now and we will eagerly wait for the butterflies to hatch. 

 

If anyone is doing Spring cleaning and has old pants/tights/rain gear/socks… that don’t fit your child anymore, we happily accept donations for the spare bin. Most of my extras have found new homes.  

 

Pizza day is next Thursday. This has been organized by the grade 6/7 class. As we eat on a different schedule, we won’t be getting our pizza until last snack. Please send your child with enough food to last them 2 snacks so they aren’t left hungry. We usually have extra food, but you know what your child eats best.
