Hello Families,
This was a busy, full week in Kindergarten. We were excited to be together and we couldn't believe how much our lil pumpkin has changed! We have sprouts and they are getting taller and taller.
This week we jumped right in to learning about new letters and numbers. We have been working hard on practicing the letters "T" and "F". We can identify words that begin with those letters. We can write them on white boards, and in our writing books. We were excited to explore new items in the Mystery Box this week.
In our writing journal we drew mystery animals that were hidden behind a flap. We had to make good guesses about the hidden animal by looking at its peeking out tail. The letter T begins so many amazing words. We will continue to learn about the letter F by sharing Family photos at carpet time. Please send along a family picture to share. I am happy to print them out for your Kindergarten student.
In math we learned about the number 3- which is a tricky number to write- so we needed to practice quite a bit and be patient with ourselves. We say "around the tree, around the tree- that is how you make a three". You can have your child show you how they can do it. We can show it on a ten frame and we even played tic tac toe- three in a row with a friend.
In centres we have been busy playing in our pretend pizza shop, using scissors and glue to make crafts, exploring sand and water at the sensory bin, painting, making bracelets, building with giant blocks and going outside to the playground. This week we played in sunshine, light rain, ice weather and snow. Please continue to send your child dressed for the weather. Boots are going to be important to have on for outside time in the next little bit as it can sometimes be slippery for crocs and dress shoes.
