Word Families

Today we are learning about word families.   At circle we played a fun game where everyone was given a card with a word on it (cap, hat, bat) that belonged to a word family.  Just like yesterday, the kinders had to find their friends who belonged to the same family. Here are some pictures!

Math

This week in math we are learning about 3D shapes.  We've been sorting them, watching videos, making discoveries, and singing songs. Today at circle we did a fun activity where the kinders were given shapes then had to search for friends with the same shape.   After, we were able to share with the group what our shape was and describe it.  We had a blast.  Here are some pictures of our sorting game and the poem we are learning.  Also, click HERE to see our favourite 3D shape song!





Spring Science! (Wishful thinking)

This week we've been working hard making discoveries about plants and trees at the science table!  Yesterday and today we learned about the different parts of plants and what they look like.  Here are some pictures of our plant activity and some of the flowers we invented today at the art table.

Green Thumb Award

Our class has won the schools Green Thumb award!  It is awarded to classes every month who do their best at recycling in all areas.  We set up a recycle centre with a green, blue and black bin  in the Fall and did research on what goes into them.  After months of being great recyclers we were presented with our award yesterday to share between the other winners.  We are  very excited and are enjoying having the green thumb on display in our classroom,  here are some pictures!
