This week in Kindergarten...
We began our week saying good-bye to our ducks and our goose, Johnny Marshmallow. We drew ducks and geese and made a Thank-You book for the farmer who so kindly gave our classes eggs to hatch. Our ducks and Johnny went back to the farm to live their best farm life.
We read the story The Very Hungry Caterpillar by Eric Carle and solved this math problem in our math journals: The Hungry Caterpillar ate 10 things, what kinds of things did he eat? Students used pictures, numbers and a math sentence to solve their problems.
Next, we read the story Jack and the Beanstalk. We used our imaginations to think about what we might find at the top of a beanstalk. Students drew a picture and labelled their drawings. We had so many interesting ideas!
We continued by reading a different version of Jack and the Beanstalk and participating in a "Measure the Room" activity where students used unfix cubes to measure and record different pictures around the room from the story.
The PM class was able have some Big Buddy time this week and did a measurement activity about Bugs. We also learned about different types of bugs and drew about them in our journals.
This week we also had lots of fun playing in our Ice Cream centre, building all kinds of cool 3D shapes and different things with connecting toys and making lots and lots of art for our special hallway "Kinder- Garden". We also had lots of fun playing outside. The fabulous Ms. Uzma taught a bunch of the students how to play hopscotch- and they were excited to practice a lot.
