Our Week April 3 - 6

Hi Families,

Here are some stories from our 2 short weeks at school. 

It's a Zoo!
We have been busy making different animals to go in our zoo. Now we have started to think about what a zookeeper does in the zoo. We are researching our zoo animals to see what the zookeepers do to take care of them. 
                          

Elephants and Polar Bears
We watched a video about elephant zookeepers. They clean the elephant's feet, look in their mouths, and cut up celery and apples for the elephants to eat.
                         

Ms. S brought in a paper polar bear for us to see and it was so big! It was as big as our carpet! We did not know that polar bears could be so big! We have been working in small groups to try to measure our polar bear in different ways. So far we have measure using cards, shapes, and dominoes.
     

3D Shapes
It is fun learning about 3D shapes. We have a 3D song that we like to sing everyday. We have looked for different 3D shapes in our classroom and have tried to build our own. 

Shape Shadows
At the construction centre we all got to build a tower using 3D shapes. Then we put a flashlight behind our tower so we could see the shadows. We put paper on the wall and then we drew our shadows to make our towers into art.

             

Getting Ready for the Concert!
On April 26th at 6:30pm it will be our Kindergarten Concert 'Rhythm of the Night'. We have been busy learning about dances from around the world and we have decided to do a hula dance for the concert! Our song is called Hawaiian Roller Coaster - be sure to ask us to show you our cool moves!
