Thursday May 4

Today we had another egg hatch during the morning. So now both AM and PM have witness an egg hatch. We named the chicks. We took all names, placed them in a hat and took out 4 names. We then voted to pick the name for our chicks. 

AM Kindergarten chose the name for chick from egg #1. Meet Buttercup. 




PM Kindergarten chose the name for chick from egg #2. Meet Fluffy.





Buttercup needs to stay in the incubator until tomorrow and Fluffy has moved into a bigger space to be able to move around. 

We did a page for our chick booklets. We had to draw what the first chick looked like. And we labelled the body parts of a chick, hen and rooster.

We had literacy groups and had big centers.

PM Kindergarten had music. 











Upcoming dates:

You are invited to a Kindergarten celebration of learning on Thursday May 11.

Both AM and PM Kindergarten will be going on a field trip to Butterfield Acres  Friday June 16. We have slightly changed the schedule to accommodate both AM and PM groups ( to cut on costs we will have both groups go together so we can use 1 bus) That means both groups will have the field trip on Friday June 16th and there will be NO kindergarten on Friday June 23. 

We will require 7 volunteers per class. If you have a valid police clearance and can drive to the site please use the following link to sign up. (If you need to carpool, please email us )We will not have enough space on the bus for all our volunteers, we are asking that you drive yourself and meet us at the farm.

Today we had writing Wednesday. We read, "Helpers in my Community" and talked about who are the helpers we see in our community. We discussed what we would like to be when we grow up. Our learners drew a picture in their journal and wrote, "I am a ___". Ask your child what they want to be when they grow up. We did a rhyming activity with whiteboards.

Today was a great day at school.  We learned about the letter N. We read " The Nicest Newt" and had to find all the words that began with N. We learned the jolly phonics song for N and practiced the actions for all the letters we have been learning. (S, A, T, I, P, N) We practiced printing the letter N in our printing journals. The AM classes had gym and music.  Please ask your child what they did. PM class went to gym and did stations to practice skills such as catching, throwing, kicking and target practice.  We are very lucky to have some new centers to play with!  Thank you to the casino funds for allowing us to purchase the new toys.  The kinders loved playing the new cooperative game "Hoot Owl Hoot" and playing with the magnatiles. We had centers and snack today. Volunteer Needed!  Kindergarten was very lucky to be able to purchase a doll house from the casino funds.  We are looking for someone who would be willing to come into the school and bui...
