Happy Friday!☀️ Today we did the last stations of our name centres, worked on our self portraits, played centres and played on the playground.  Next week on Thursday and Friday we will have our first Parent Teacher Conference. The purpose of this conference is for me to get to know a bit more about your child from your perspective. These conferences will be in-person. If you are unable to make a conference time, I can arrange a phone conference or we can arrange to meet at a later time.  Next Thursday is also our Terry Fox Run. Please bring in some "Toonies for Terry" to donate to cancer research! Thank you for all of your support, have a wonderful weekend!❤️

Happy Tuesday!  Today we started our name centres. We practiced stamping, beading, bingo-dabbing and building our names with play dough. We are learning to use a variety of materials we have in the class, practicing our fine motor skills, and practicing recognizing and spelling our names. We had our first music class today. We played some musical games and did some dancing.  Have a great evening! Tomorrow is our first "Nature Walk Wednesday". We will be going on a nature walk on our school grounds.

Happy Wednesday!  Today in Kindergarten we practiced tracing our name with loose parts, learned how to do our best "4 star" colouring, played in the gym for the first time, and had play centres.  There are a few notes about School Council events attached on this post. Please have a look below! Yesterday I sent home our yellow folders with your child. Please make sure they bring them back and forth to school each day to help us build this routine. Students will bring home work, important notices, etc... in these folders.  Thank you!  See you tomorrow! ❤️
