It is AM KINDERS Tomorrow.
Today we ran the Terry Fox Run. The morning group ran with the rest of the school. The Kinders did an amazing job and many of them ran most of the way. We went out the back of the school field, down the path and then around the baseball diamonds before heading back. In the afternoon group ran around the school field two times!!! An additional note for Mrs. Osadec's class: Please go outside on a little fall walk today and collect 5-10 freshly fallen leaves of various shape, size and color for an art project tomorrow! Thank you Reminders: There is no school on: Friday, October 7 for a Professional Development day or Monday October 10th for the Thanksgiving weekend. School picture day is October 13th. Please dress your child for the weather. Over the next few weeks we will be heading outside to look at the changes we can see with the change of the seasons. With the weather beginning to change it will be very helpful for your child to begin to practice getting on their winter clothing. Doing up zippers, snapping snaps and putting on hats and mitts is a real difficult task for many of them. Please feel free to add comments to blog but also remember that they are public, so anyone will be able to read them. Enjoy your evening, The K Team

The Kindergarten Team Today we went on a fall walk in the naturalization area. We looked at the leaves on different tree and saw how some trees have lost almost all of their leaves and others have leaves that are still green. We even have a larch tree so we saw the differences between it and an evergreen tree.

Enjoy your evening The Kindergarten Team Today the morning group read a story and predicted what was going to happen next. This is something new for us so it was pretty hard! The story we read was about a chicken and the things he collected for his friends. I wonder if I could tell you about it?
Mrs. Bridle’s class talked about fall and the changes that we see that tell us it is fall. We also learned another word for fall…ask your child if they know what the other word for fall is! We started a fall tree art project today. It has many steps and we did the first step today which was a background wash. We talked about the sky and the grass. We used blue and green paint to create the background. We will work on the tree for the remainder of the week, doing one new part each day.

We will be doing this each month and it is so interesting to see the changes they make in that short of a time.
