Today was Me and a Tree day, we completed our ninth Me and a Tree! We only have one more to do before the end of the school year. I am sure it will be great to look back on them and see how much change we have made in Kindergarten! It is hard to believe that in two days it will be June!
We had a visit from the Calgary Public Library today and they told us about all their summer programs. There are even some contests that we can enter. For more information we can look at the Calgary Public Library website or visit any of the libraries. We continue to bring in things for our calendar and wow have we learned a lot from it. One day someone brought in a bunch of bouncy balls. When we dropped the bag with all of them in it, it didn’t bounce!? So we tried with just a few balls and it bounced so we added in more. Then we got distracted and check to see which ball bounced the highest. Today we had some copper wire because copper is the 29th element in the periodic table of elements and we tried to light a light bulb with it and it WORKED!!!! We love things that will lead us to other questions and things we can try. On June 7th, over 50 schools and an estimated 8000 students, if not more, will be biking to school to participate in Calgary Bike to School Day. The mission of this event is to promote healthy active lifestyles in youth. Bike to School Day is also a community day, one that brings together members of a community and their interest in biking or simply riding with friends. Also, the project will help to show kids that biking not only can take you places far away pretty quickly, but it is a healthy activity that gets them outside. Reminders: Keep some open time on June 16 for the Kindergarten assemblies. The morning assembly will be at 10:15 and the afternoon assembly at 2:00. Have a good evening! The K Team
