April 27, 2019

Hello Families,

We have had another great week in kindergarten!

This week we said good-bye to Mr. C who has now finished his 1st year teaching practicum. We wish him all the best on his teaching journey!

Math: 2 & 3D Shapes
Kinders have continued to explore 2 & 3D shapes and their attributes. We have extended this learning to compare and contrast the attributes for bugs and insects. How are they the same? How are they different?

We made our own insects.

Making observations! 

Fire Hall (PM Class)

Walking Field Trip: Fire Hall
On Friday May 3rd, 2019, (weather permitting) kindergarten students will be walking to the Parkland Fire Station where we will learn about safety and the roles and responsibilities of a firefighter.  This field trip will take place during the Kindergarten morning, so children will be ready for pick up at the usual 12:00 pm dismissal time. All classes will be going separately.

Since this field trip is within walking distance and students will not be participating in any restricted activities, there are no specific consent forms that need to be signed and returned.  As with any field trip though, we want to inform you about some common hazards involved with walking field trips.  Please note this list may not include all of the hazards for a given trip:
·       Slips, trips and falls;
·       Getting separated from the group;
·       Street crossings;
·       Pre-existing medical conditions and/or allergies

Please ensure that your child is dressed appropriately for the weather on this day and that he/she wears appropriate footwear such as running shoes.     

If you have any questions about this walking field trip, or if you do not want your child to participate, please contact me  at (403) 777-6830 or by email at jlhayes@cbe.ab.ca  

**The AM kindergarten students will be going on this field trip in June.**
