New homework!


Chers parents,

We have been having a great week!  The 100 days celebration was wonderful.  Thank you for the great participation for the 100 days project.  We also made some necklaces out of 100 fruit loops by counting in tens with our care partners.  We did 100 exercises.  We did some estimating in comparing what snack in a baggie would weigh the most.  We also imagined what we would do with 100 dollars.  The kids came up with some fun ideas.  We will be moving into a new unit on nutrition and food soon.  Please keep posted with your notes and the blog.  We will be making and tasting some great foods together.

  I will also be sending home alphabet songbooks.  Your child will be singing the song of the day to you and will then work on that letter at home and colour the new words.  Each day the booklets need to come back to school.  We will also start home reading books that will go home next week.

Merci!

Important dates!


Chers parents,

Tomorrow is beach day!  Even though it is cold outside we can imagine we are somewhere warm!  Students may come with beach wear (no bathings suits please): sun hats, sunglasses….under their winter gear. 

Friday is our concert at 9am.  Please be on time!  We will be performing on risers in the gym so it is important that all students arrive on time so that we can be ready.  We are looking forward to the performance very much. 

We will be handing out Valentine cards after the performance before snack time.  We will not be taking out any cards before the performance.  There will be plenty of excitement that day.

 

The first day back from the break, Monday February 23rd we will be celebrating 100 days of school.  Please send your child’s 100 day project as well as a 100 days snack in a baggie (cheerios, pretzels, smarties…) –no nuts please.  We will be sharing a 100 day snack.

 

We hope that you will be able to attend our assembly!  Have a great break!

Mme Wallace

February


Chers parents,

Wow January is done and we are starting a new month!  We are excited to present our kindergarten winter concert on February the 13th If you can arrange to come see the performance it will be at 9:00am in the gym.  We have been practicing and we are looking forward to it very much. 
 
On your child's special day he or she can bring something that demonstrates friendship or reminds your child of a close friend.  I will be sending home a list of the children's first names for Valentine's day.  We have 23 students in our class.

On Monday, lundi le 23 février, we will be celebrating 100 schools days that the kindergarten students have had. (They will have completed 100 days on February 13th but because of our assembly we will celebrate the first day back from break).  On this day your child can bring a 100 days project that your child can complete at home.  I will put in the display case in the LRC.  If it is too large a photo can be taken and brought to school.  You and your child can think of something that can be brought to school and put on display that contains 100 of something.  For example a child can do a collage of 100 stickers, a shirt with 100 buttons glue or sewn on, a 100 popsicle sticks project, a rainbow loom project, a ribbons project, seashells from a trip…the possibilities are endless. 

You are also welcome to send a fun 100 snack in a Ziploc bag.  We will dump the bags into a large bowl to share.  For example: 100 cheerios or 100 small marshmallows or 100 chocolate chips or 100 pretzels….  Please do not send any nuts.  Do not worry if you are enable to send something.  I will bring some extra bags for the children as well.  It is for our fun celebration—notre fête de 100 jours.

Great job on the homework.  We will take a short break after this week when page 18 and 19 are done so your child can plan and  prepare the 100 days project.  We will recommence after the break with a new booklet.

Our Early Skills program is going great and we will soon celebrate with a classroom reward for showing good listening skills.  BRAVO!

 

Merci!

February Winter Assembly!

Please write this in your calendars: Friday, February 13th at 9:00am we will be doing a Kindergarten Winter Assembly with Mme McCrea's class in the gym.  We will be singing songs that we have worked very hard on.  The program is approximately a half hour.  This is a chance to see your child in action. The students have been working very diligently and enthusiastically learning these songs.
