This Week in Kindergarten - November 7 - 11

This week, we had our second visit from our Big Kid buddies. The students from Mr. Stephen's class came down to visit and read with us. We really enjoy their visits since our buddies ask great questions and use funny voices in the stories!


Nature Walk
On Monday, we went on a nature walk to the forest.  We went on a leaf hunt and had fun collecting leaves. We made big piles and threw them into the air too!
We found a mystery thing. We think it is a plant, but we are not sure what it is. Some people think it is popcorn, corn, or a beehive!


Planting


We were planting again this week. We really like it. We planted tulips and Spider plants. Our tulip bulbs went outside in the Kindergarten area in the dirt. We had lots of baby spider plants that grew roots. We planted them all in pots and gave them to different classes to take care of.   

Remembrance Day
We did Poppy paintings for Remembrance Day. We read Todd Parr's book 'The Peace Book', and created our own peace is ... stories. We all got our own poppy on Remembrance Day.

Olympics
Some of the Bluejays are interested in learning about the Olympics. They made a list of sports to research and want to learn about each sport and how to play it. This week was the Javelin. 
For the Javelin we need to run and then throw a big stick. Then, we measure how far we threw.
