Each pumpkin is unique.  I hope you had fun with your child as you worked together on this home project.
  Our wall of art looks fantastic! 


I added some dress up clothing to the dramatic play learning centre.  The children are developing skills in cooperation, turn taking, fine motor and imagination!

Each decorated pumpkin is beautiful!

Our newest addition to the classroom our beta fish.   Each child gave a suggestion for a name and the name Swimmy was drawn by Mrs. Dumville

Working on a Halloween book!


Making  Halloween lanterns to hang in the classroom.  Everyone's cutting skills are improving!

Roll the dice record the dots and number. These new numbers cards are great for showing the children how to properly make  numbers. Riley was my helper.   I heard him say  Garret just follow my finger to make the number,  Thank you Riley!

Each day a different group measured how many cubes high their pumpkin was and how many links around,  Then they put all the seeds inside the box outline to see which pumpkin would have the most seeds,

Ms. A brought in some snacks to share with Kindergarten A on Friday.  The children really enjoyed the picnic snack.  Thank you Ms. A,
