Community Kindergarten

We have continued to learn about nutrition.  The students are so eager to call out which food group their snack belongs to while they eat.  It’s so cute to hear, “Grains!”  “Proteins!”   “Fruits and Vegetables!” or “Sometimes Food!” while they are eating their snack.  We even wrote a letter to “Junk Food Janet” about why she needs to be healthy.  Please ask your child what their advice was.

The children are learning so much about what it means to be healthy.  They have had a lot of fun exploring the gymnastics equipment.  We have heard many comments about how strong they are  and how “easy” it is because they have their own gymnastics lessons. 

In Math, we are working with dice.  The children are quick to subitize a dice, but many could use some extra practice with number formation and sequencing.  We will work on this more next week.  

French Immersion:

This week in French Immersion we have begun learning the names of different fruits in French and discussing ways of being healthy.  We have also been talking about the Circle of Courage.  

In math we have begun sorting numbers from lowest to highest and really practicing writing our numbers in the correct direction. 

Fun Socks!

Thanks so much to everyone for sending in a pair of white socks.  A tip was passed onto us about setting the colors; putting some salt in the water for a quick soak BEFORE you put them in the wash is helpful.
