Newsletter #32

May 24th Edition of

The K/1 Class News


Hi everyone, we had a very fun week! There was pizza and backwards day and more.

 

Monday was a holiday, no school. I hope you all enjoyed the long weekend. 

 

Our butterflies have started to hatch! So far two have emerged and likely more will come out over the weekend. The kids are so excited! 

 

Another highlight of our week was the monster stuffy activity. A while back, the class all drew monster pictures. We collected them and the grade 6/used the pictures to sew real stuffies! It was a very exciting surprise. 


We continue learning about doubles in math and building stamina in writing. Our seasonal traditions projects are coming along, and it has been nice hearing about all the different things people do each season. We have been learning about wild roses and honeysuckle and have enjoyed watching the bees gather pollen. 

 

Next week I will be starting to teach the class about body awareness and personal safety skills as is required by the BC curriculum. It will be based off lessons from: https://www.kidsintheknow.ca/app/en/about if you want more information.

 

We are nearing the end of the year! Please keep an eye on the following dates:
