Picture day is coming soon!

I liked the pig best in Mrs. Wishy Washy!

What fun investigating the sunflowers. There was so many seeds!

The class decided what promises our circle of respect should include. The class also decided what should happen if someone broke a promise. Each student signed their promise of respect. Our circle is hanging in the classroom.

Look who is in Kindergarten A and B. Can you see someone who looks like me?

Drawing in journals is part of our daily routine.

Creativity . . . Our very own showcase!

We have been learning all about AB patterns. The pattern frames look great!

Learning in Action!

The children are busy at work. The outcomes that they are working on include:

1. Blocks are great for demonstrating that cooperation is an important part of being a member of a group. Great teamwork boys!
   
2. Playdough for building small muscles - Physical Development 1.2 and expressing ideas and feelings creatively through artistic expression ( Creative Development 1.2)
3. Painting is also good for developing small muscle control and creative development.
4. Dramatic play the ladies are developing their conversation skills, self help skills and cooperating and developing friendship!
5. Sorting buttons that all the same color, size , shape, or by the number of button holes is the beginning of geometry.
   
6. Pattern blocks are helpful when learning about repeating patterns!
7. Playing with the dolls... this young lady is giving the babies very gentle care.
8. Creativity ... now what else should I add to my picture? Does it look like me?
9. Mask's are great for expressing ideas and feelings through play.
