Kinder Writers!!

Our kindergarteners our busy writing notes and books everyday during our exploration time. During our writing workshop I introduced 3 ways of writing...

1. Draw a picture.
2. Curly writing (for those writers who are at very early stage of writing).
3. Book writing.

We also learned to use "bubble gum" writing when we don't know our words.

You can see writers all around the classroom. It is very exciting to see so many writers hidden in different parts of the classroom and getting lots of pictures and cards everyday!

Please do encourage your child write at home, even if in the beginning you see them scribbling (that is our curly writing:)).

Cheers!

Sports Jersey Spirit Day!

Tomorrow at Carleton Heights we are going to show our appreciation for our favourite teams by wearing our team's jerseys! Have your child support their team by wearing their favourite team's T-shirt or jersey!

I am going to cheer for my favourite team!

Go Sens Go!!!

In math...

In math we have been looking at 2D shapes. We are learning to describe our shapes by their properties (sides and points). Ex. A square has 4 equal sides and 4 points. A circle has 1 side and 0 points. We have been using different manipulatives and strategies to define our shapes.

Thank You!

It was so nice to see you on Thursday and Friday at our parent teacher interviews! We enjoyed talking with you about your child and appreciate your comments, concerns and positivity. Thank-you for your feedback and I hope we addressed all of your concerns. I know 15 minutes goes by so quickly, if you have any more questions or concerns that we didn’t address, please send me an email so we can make arrangements to discuss them in detail.

Thanks again!

Cheers
