Dear Parents/Guardians,
Happy New Year and welcome back!
December
Pajama Day
Hope everyone had a safe and fun filled holiday! We are looking forward, once again, to
working and playing together with the students to help them continue to learn
and grow.
·
We will be exploring 2D shapes
and 3 figures. Students will identify
shapes in in the environment and create figures using various materials.
·
Some students have showed an
interest in basketball. We will continue
to learn more about our favourite players through read-alouds and utilizing the
smartboard for research.
·
Our Dramatic Art Centre has been
transformed to an Animal Hospital.
Students will learn how to care for animals and use specialized language
that may be heard at a Veterinarians Office.
Donations are always accepted and appreciated, items that we are looking
for are clean stuffed animals, doctor tools, bandages, x rays, Q-tips, new tooth brushes, small blankets,
small animal crates.
REMINDERS:
Please remember that with the cold weather
upon us, children must be dressed warm because we will continue to have outdoor
learning twice a day. Students need a
coat, snow pants, a hat, mittens, and boots.
Please remember that they also must have shoes to wear indoors.
On
Friday, January 25th, we would like to invite all kindergarten
students to wear a hat to school for “Kindergarten Crazy Hat” day.
