Wednesday April 13

To conclude our Mo Willems unit, we read “Don’t Let the Pigeon Stay Up Late” and did a class graph about our favourite Mo Willems book. Then we made a character mask from the books we read. These masks were used for storytelling. 

 

We sorted heavy and light objects using the pan scale. 

 

We did a free writing entry for Writing Wednesday. Ask your child what they wrote about. 

 

In gym, we played soccer games. 

 

AM classes and Ms. McLean’s class had gym. Ms. Mask’s PM class had music. 

Tomorrow will be Miss G and Miss Mach's last day with us at Eric Harvie. They will be graduating in May. We wish them all the best and have loved having them in our classroom. 

We currently have 40 boxes and will need 75 for everyone to complete this project.  Each Kindergarten child will need an empty Klennex box for an upcoming project at school.  Please send all Klennex boxes (or similar size box) to school as soon as possible.  If you have more than one empty box, please feel free to send it along.  Thank you!

No school Friday April 15 (Good Friday) and Monday April 18 (PD Day).

AM kindergarten looked fantastic all dressed up for Halloween! We had a fun day at school.  Today we were Scientists and took a closer look at pumpkins. We watched a video from Sci Kids about pumpkin dissection and learned about all the parts of a pumpkin. We learned about estimation and had to estimate about the height of a pumpkin using cubes, the circumference of a pumpkin using string and estimated the number of ribs on the pumpkin. We then measured to see how accurate we were with our guesses. We worked in groups.  Our last job was to predict what would happen when we placed a pumpkin in water. Would it sink or float? We used tally marks to share our thinking.

Today we exchanged home reading. Your child took home 2 books to read this week. Please return them on Thursday. We are looking at poetry in our class. We read the story, "Hello Ocean" and had to think of one word to describe the ocean. We made a list and talked about using descriptive words to speak about the ocean. We used our 5 senses to help us describe the ocean and created a class poem. We will be focusing on creating ocean creature poems over the next few weeks in class.  We played bump in math. It is a game that focuses on counting on from the biggest number using dice.  AM Kindergarten and Mrs. Mask's PM class had music. Mr. Campbell's class had gym. We practiced rhyming words and wrote our own on whiteboards.  We had centers.  Friday is PM kindergarten.
