Dear Families,
We have had another fun week in kindergarten!
Art: Self-Portraits
This week students really enjoyed working on
self-portraits. They captured close details and engaged in feedback to enhance
their work (eg: sharing something they were proud of and something they want to
work on).
Gym: Gymnastics
Students enjoyed mat work and practiced safety concepts with a partner. Some of the stations included: log rolls, frog jumps, 3 body part balances etc. |

Field Trip: Fish Creek Park
Please ensure to complete all sections of the
field trip form and return it with $2 in your child's folder. Thank you to
those families that have already returned the form. Thank you to everyone who has
signed up for the field trip. We know it will be a great time!
Math: Problem Solving
Students continue to work on
problem solving. We continue to review organization, strategies
(drawing/labeling) and communication. This week we worked on solving the
following problem:
When you look out a window,
you see ten legs... what did you see?
This is an open-ended problem
where children can use their creativity to show multiple answers (eg: 1 spider
has 8 legs, 1 bird has 2 legs the total is 10 or 1 cat has 4 legs, 1 dog has 4
legs, 1 person has 2 legs the total is 10).
Pink Shirt Day: Kindness
Students really enjoyed learning about kindness, respect and
being a good friend.
Kindness is:
"Sharing." –MM
"If someone gets hurt
you ask if they are okay." -CS
"Playing with new
friends." –LP
"You do nice things
for other people." -MG
"Being a good
friend."- KK
"If I did something
wrong I would say I'm sorry." -CI
