SK Picture Day

Here is the information for our school's Senior Kindergarten Picture Day. 

It is this Wednesday January 27th. Please note that the students will be wearing a gown provided by the photo studio. 

Cartons Please!

Thank you to those who were able to share their empty and rinsed cartons with us. We are still in need of more, so any extra that you could send in for us to use would be great. Thank you!

Super Busy!

This week our students have been super busy during centre and play time. We have been working on matching shapes, reading beginner books, playing number bingo and creating our very own story books. We also spent time this week thinking about words that begin with the letters A, B and C. The students did a great job creating letter A, B and C posters. Great work this week boys and girls!

Exploring Numbers

This week we have been taking a closer look at numbers 0-10. The students were invited to explore the coloured number rods during play. 

They used white units to help figure out how big each rod was. Once they figured out how many units made 10 with one rod they were then able to make ten in different ways. 

The best part of the exploration was watching the students 'teach' other students how to 'play the game'

Outdoor Play

We are very happy to share that the temperature cooperated enough for us to be able to go outside to play today. The children were all very excited to go and play in the snow. 

Just a friendly reminder that we have recess 3 times a day and proper winter weather wear is strongly encouraged for all students to have. Snow pants, boots, coat, hat, mitts, and a scarf are encouraged to be brought to school everyday. It may even be a good idea to send extra socks and mittens if possible. Please make sure you label everything. Thank you for your cooperation!

Our Bread Experiment

This week we are learning all about germs! So we thought it would be fun to test out how germs are transferred. We allowed 3 groups of children the children to touch 3 pieces of bread, the boys, the girls and the boys and girls. Each day we will investigate and discuss our findings. We can't wait to see what will happen! 

We are looking for Milk Cartons

We are kindly asking for any empty (rinsed out) milk/juice cartons. If you have any that are ready for the recycle bin can you please send them our way? We need at least one per student for an activity that we would like to start next week. Thank you so much!
