 This Week in Kindergarten

Literacy

We have been busy inching our way towards finish out alphabet exploration! We can now identify, name and say the sound for letters Hh, Rr and Ll. We only have 7 letters left and will be learning them in this order Ww, Yy, Xx, Qq, Jj, Vv and finally Zz. Take a look at some of our letter work! 


                          

We ❤️ Reading 



Numeracy

We have been doing a deep dive into numbers 1-10. Not only identifying & printing the numerals, but also how to show the numbers in a variety of ways. We can show the number on a number line, on a 10 Frame, with our fingers, dominos and tally marks! We took our tally mark practice outside and counted the cars that drove by Ramsay School. Ask your child which colour car was the most popular after we collected our data.

        This Week in Kindergarten   Welcome back! I hope everyone had an enjoyable winter break with many memories made. It was nice to get back into routines this week.              .   We welcomed the return to school and the new calendar year with stories, art and writing. We read the story "Squirrel's New Years Resolution". We talked about what resolution (personal goal) students would like to achieve this year. We painted fireworks to honour some of the traditions people have around the beginning of the new year. There were so many beautiful bursts of colour!                  Grade 3 Buddies    We spent Friday morning with our Buddy class, Mrs. Jackson's Grade 3 friends. Buddies engaged in a math and drawing activity. They rolled dice to create a variety of different looking monsters. Some friends noticed how many times they rolled the same body parts, "I rol...

                This Week in Kindergarten                      Literacy Literacy is everywhere in Kindergarten! Our morning soft entry activities range from 'Book Look' to 'Printing Practice'. Entry activities give students a familiar task to engage in as they arrive at school. These are tasks they can complete independently and give them a chance to connect with peers at the same time.               Numeracy- Patterns  Kindergarten friends have continued their work with patterns. We have worked on identifying, creating and extending simple and increasingly more complex patterns. Opportunities for students to engage with, and deepen their understanding of patterning have been integrated into shared stories, instruction time and free choice centers.  December 9th:  December 10th:  December 11th: December 12th: Book Exchange/ Spirit of ...
