What a beautiful day!! Today each of the classes did different things. Some wrote sentences using various sentence starters such as: I like.....I see.....I am.....
Some classes wrote journal entries and others played math games. Ask your child what he or she did today. All of the Kindergarten teachers met this afternoon to do some team planning. Each of the PM kindergarten classes had guest teachers...if your child's home reading books were not switched, we will make sure and get them switched tomorrow. If you have any magazines you are finished with we would love to use them. We are going to be making Earth day collages and are particularly interested in tearing up the blue and green pages;) We can also use them for cutting out letters, words and numbers at different centres. Thank you! Some things to write down on your calendars! Student led conferences will be on April 21st and 22nd. The on-line registration is now open. On Wednesday May 18th all of the kindergarten classes will be going on a full day field trip downtown. All students will arrive at the school for 8:00 attendance and the busses will leave at 9:00 for our day. Each class is required to have five volunteers. If you are interested and available to help out please make sure that you have your police clearance. If you are not sure if you have a police clearance please contact your child's teacher and they can check with the office.

They worked on letter formation; each student printed all of the upper and lower case letters in the alphabet. They really focussed on making the letters the correct way and having them sit where they should on the lines. Mrs Bridle's class played a fishy math game. If you ask them about it maybe they can teach it to you. The afternoon group had gym-sic today. We are talking about seconds for out calendar this month.

Two classes did a sequencing activity and another talked about beginning, middle and the end of the story. It is amazing how well they are remembering them. During centre time one of their choices is to make puppet shows and act out the story. They do a fantastic job of it. In the afternoon we had gym-sic. Mrs. Decottignies class is practicing logging onto the computer. Mrs. Yacyshyn's class did some table top math centres and in Mrs. Smith's class talked about the letter Xx.

The morning classes each started a new fairy tale and did an activity to go along with it. Ask your child which fairy tale they are learning about. In the afternoon, Mrs. Decottignies' and Mrs. Yacyshyns' classes learned about the letter Oo. We learned that an Oo is a vowel and that it makes two different sounds. We thought of a lot of words that begin with Oo; ask your child to tell you some of the words they came up with. Mrs. Smith's class did 'Me and a Tree'. They worked hard to draw a detailed picture of themselves, a tree and to write down as many letters, numbers and words as they could. Some things to write down on your calendars!

Mrs. Bridle's class had some new LEGO to play with. Some of the children were concerned that it was "girl" lego because it was in a pink container. Mrs. Bridle assured the class that everyone could play with it and it didn't matter what colour the container or the LEGO was. The LEGO centre was our busiest centre today! We also wrote a goodbye letter to Mr. Craig. We are very sad he is leaving us. We thanked him for teaching us about trapezoids! Tomorrow is his last day at Evergreen. Mrs. Bridle sent home book orders today. They are due on Monday, April 8. Today the afternoon classes did their 7th edition of Me and a Tree. We talked about filling in space, making sure that we were not floating in space and had a ground to stand on. When writing our letters it is helpful to sing the ABC song so that we do not forget letters. IF we say the number as we count it can also help. Some of us are writing words but remembering the ones we know is hard so we try to write sentences. This is such a big job but WOW the changes are fantastic.
