We had a wonderful day at the Pumpkin Patch! We hope you enjoy our digital storybook that captures the day!

In Math we are learning about sorting. We placed coloured paint samples on the table and invited students to sort them. The students recognized that we can sort them by colour. Eager to demonstrate their learning, students then went on to sort the fall items we collected from our Nature Walk! This led to a discussion of how there are several shades of each colour and how we can sort, compare and describe objects by the attributes used!

Be A Cool Kindergarten Cat!

Our Kindergarten classes sing "BE A COOL CAT" song on a daily basis.  It helps the children remember all the important rules of school. Please take the time to have your child sing the following song at home:

(TUNE: OH MY DARLING) 

Be a COOL cat,

Be a COOL cat,

Be a COOL Kindergarten cat.

Be a COOL cat,

Be a COOL cat,

And follow all of these rules.

LISTEN AND LEARN

SHOW RESPECT

GIVE 100%

PLAY FAIRLY

BE POLITE

BUT MOST OF ALL, BE A FRIEND.

 

On October 25th our classes will be having a COOL CAT day, where the children can dress like COOL CATS.  Use cool sunglasses, hats, whiskers, etc.  Plan the attire with your child and use your imagination.  HAVE FUN!

We Found Fall!

Over the past week, our curiosity led us outdoors to look for and explore seasonal changes. On our hike around the school, we discovered many objects and changes to remind us that fall is really here! We looked at the soybeans ready to be harvested, watched a hawk fly around and listened to all the sounds of Fall.

Changing colours...

Insects...

Grasshoppers...

We named two trees in our schoolyard... and noticed that their roots are exposed. 

We'll fix that!

Our treasures...

Lots of seeds too!
