Final Blog Post ... Last days of School ... Just pictures

June 17 - 21 Pirates. Fire Dept, Police Officer and the Movies

The children had a great time

decorating with my pirate

theme items.

Painting the pirate ship

in the hallway.

The finished ship with some

fine looking pirates aboard.

I just did the first and last

names for our pirate names.  

Share your pirate name with

your family.  Some pirate talk!!!

We had fun with this

pirate activity.

This work job consisted of

seeing how many treasures

you could get in your pirate

ship before it sank.

Dig in the treasure chest

for the sight words hidden

on the gold coins.  Record

the words.  If you have

time draw a pirate ship on

the back of your sheet.

Pirate board game.

 Count the items and place a

button on the correct number

on the bottom of the card.  

Continue the pirate pattern.

During learning centre time

the children are having lots

of fun with the pirate items.

Our visit to the Fire Dept.  

Thank you to Fire Chief Jason

Woodbury. The children enjoyed

the visit.

Thank you to Sergeant Neil Logan

for coming to the school to talk

to the children on bike safety

and for showing everyone his police car.

The children were thrilled with the

finger puppet and fingerprint kit.

Now we all know you cannot

work on a pirate theme without

everyone walking the plank.  

Only a few fell into the ocean (mat)

and got eaten up the sharks!

The children enjoyed seeing Toy Story 4.

 Thank you so much for my volunteers:

Amanda, Linda, Jason, Lorri-Ann, Abby,

and Jannett. Your children were so looking

forward to you helping out..  When we got

back to the school I took out the Buzz Light Year

costume and Woody and Wendy… the children

could not believe I had them in the class.  :)

June 10 - 14 ~~~~ Finishing up Insects,Plants, Father's Day....

Ladybug Fly Home… choose one

or two ladybugs. Roll the dice,

move that number of spaces.

See which ladybug can land at home first.

What Bugs you?  

Draw and write it!!!

Ladybug Concentration game …

turn over two cards if they

are the same you hold onto

the cards and have another turn.

 See how many pairs you can find.

Find the wing with the correct

number of dots to add up to

the number on your ladybug.

Insects have taken

over the building!

or a butterfly!!!  

The Art Wall looks awesome!

Getting the cups ready

to plant our Scarlet Runner beans.

Some learning centre pictures!

Getting ready for our last

theme of the year … Pirates!!!

I was out on Friday and on my

lesson plan was to use the white

boards for number formation and

after the children were able to

draw for a few minutes.  

Mrs. Pickett, sent me this picture.

I sure felt the love.  

Needless to say “ I Love Teaching”!!!

June 3 - 7 ~~~~ Frogs, Plants, and Insects

Feed your Frog … see how many flies you 

can place on your plate for your frog.  

Using a straw draw up like you are

 drinking a milkshake try not to

 drop the fly. Place on your plate.  

This was a lot of fun and quite

 difficult for some of the children.

Roll and graph … which ladybug

 will race to the finish line first?

A frog,  a caterpillar and a butterfly puzzle.

Clipboard cruising for insect words.

 Color the butterflies on your

recording sheet if you have enough time.

Our newest classroom addition…

frog eggs and some tadpoles.

Thank you to Paige and her

family for getting them for us.  

The children are loving watching

them develop.

A group picture of the Spring Concert

practice, KB, and Grade One.

Freezies were enjoyed by

all who wanted one.  Thanks to

our special friend for treating

the K children.

We went outside a few minutes

early on my outside duty day!

Goldilocks and the Three Bears Week # 2 ~~~ May 27 - 31

Writing a letter to the three bears for Goldilocks.

Clipboard cruising for words related

to Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

What would you say if…

you were Father Bear and

saw Goldilocks sleeping in Baby Bears Bed?

Art … if you created Goldilocks

last week - this week you create a bear

Susan Rankin from the Dept. of Forestry

was in and had a wonderful presentation.

She brought in a stuffed beaver and the

children all had an opportunity to go up

close to investigate.

Thank you Susan!

I put out the props for Goldilocks

and the Three Bears and it was

priceless listening/watching the

children re-enact the story independently.

Xander is enjoying the felt

story board and characters

of Goldilocks and the Three Bears.

Our clothing order arrived.

Charlotte and KaDee are

sporting their new hoodies!

Some learning centre time pictures!
