An Amazing Field Trip

Field Trips are not possible without support from volunteers. 

Thank you to all the parents who were able to join us!!!

 

 

 

 

 

 



 

 

 

 

 

Also, a BIG thank you to Mr. Ramadan, a student teacher from the University of Windsor and Ms. Gin, an exchange student from China.  It was a great 3 weeks having you be part of our Kindergarten class. 

 

Highlights

Making pancakes with Miss Lee

If possible, plan a visit to the Windsor/Essex Humane Society to see various animals in the shelter.

 

 

Saving a plant

Community Walk to Ottawa Dentist Office

 

 At home, ask your child how many times a day they should brush their teeth and how often they should visit the Dentist.

 

 

Sharing Circle

 

Sharing time is special part of the day. It is so great to see that many of our JK's are signing up and participating in sharing their work.  Students share songs, costumes, pictures, paintings, creations, musical instruments, and the list is endless.  The audience will have an opportunity to ask one question to each friend sharing their work.  Sharing time is an excellent opportunity for students to build their confidence and improve their oral language skills.

Students created a people graph.

Which line has less people?  

 

 We discussed how some lines are straight and some are curved, just like when you write letters and numbers.  Students created letters and numbers using a variety of numbers.
