Here are some stories from the week.
Todd Parr
We have continued our Todd Parr art this week. We painted our hair and gave ourselves fun hairstyles!
Snails
On our Tuesday nature walk we made a big discovery!! Because of all the rain there were so many snails! At first we had to look very carefully to find them in the grass and then we realized they were everywhere!! We all took a turn picking up a snail (or 2 or 3) and we collected them and brought them back to our class! We have kept some as pets and we were excited to see that they laid little white eggs! We put the snails on black paper and watched them make slimy tracks. We also painted pictures of the snails as they moved around.
New Chickadees
On Thursday, our new Chickadees came to visit Kindergarten. Ms. Ancona and Ms. Boag got to meet them and we worked with Mrs. Darlow in the small gym. Some of the new Chickadees are our little brothers and sisters - they are going to have so much fun!
Recess
We are so excited for next week because on Monday we all get to try a new kind of recess. Our Bluejay friends get to go to Grade 1 classes and eat our snack with them. Then we get to go on the big field with the big kids for recess. The Chickadees get to practise being Bluejays. This means that they get to go out on the small field for recess.
Outside Painting
Mrs. Darlow and her husband made us some special painting boards. they are clear rectangles. We put them outside on the fence so that we can paint on them. Thank you Mrs. Darlow!!
Pinecone Animals
The Bluejays made animals out of pine cones this week. We had lots of different kinds of pine cones and had to plan and gather materials. Ms. Boag used the glue gun to put the pieces together for us.
Bluejay Writing
This week we learned about writing sentences. A sentence is a short story and it needs a big letter at the front (capitol) and a dot at the end (period). We made sentences about our pine cones and about pictures we drew and about our snail paintings.
