This week in kindergarten...


We dove deeper into the world of emotions. Students shared about times they felt sad, angry, happy and excited. We are learning to identify emotions by looking for clues on our friends' faces.  

 

The CHILDREN took these breathtaking photos. 
We have some incredible photographers in our group!

 


 

 




We learned to identify animals as wild or domestic.


 





We started gymnastics in the gym!


We focused on the letter W...this was a tricky letter sound to remember!

'Tis the season…of report cards!  Over the next couple of weeks, Mrs. Seddon and I will be working hard to capture, document and communicate your child’s learning at school through their first report card. Although the blog may contain less descriptive text over the next few weeks, I will continue to capture and post photos of the magic happenings in our classroom. Report cards will be sent home on December 11. Parent-teacher interviews on December 13 and 14 will provide an excellent opportunity for me to share personally the learning your child has been engaged in.


This week in kindergarten....

We talked about the letter E and explored how to express, identify and capture different emotions.


 


 


We're beginning an exploration into animals in our community and learned why they need homes. 


 





We explored an exciting new science center. Ask your child what was inside the mystery box!



 


Check back next week for important information about our upcoming field trip on December 13!

Have a wonderful weekend!
