¡Bienvenidos a Kinder!
Welcome to our AM and PM Kindergarten Blog
The first two weeks of March have been busy ones, and the Kindergarten students continue to partake in a variety of activities within the classroom. The students continue to build upon their literacy skills as they continue to work on their letter of the week. The students have enjoyed brainstorming and looking for words that start with a given letter on different days. Furthermore, the students are being encouraged to start labelling their own drawings (see picture) within their letter journals, which is helping them all to further build upon their awareness of sound and letters. The Kindergarten students received a visit from our School Nurse Jessica this week where they got to take part in a session all about washing hands. The student's met "bugsby" the germ and learned that he can hide in the most unexpected of places. They then all got "magic germs" placed on their hands and had to go to the washroom and try and wash ALL of the germs off. The students loved having the nurse here, and learning about their health and the importance of washing their hands. Finally over the last two days the Kindergarten students have been excited as they have learned about Irish culture and all about St. Patricks Day. The students took part in a directed drawing that was given in Spanish and created their own Leprechauns to celebrate the occasion. They then tried their best to describe their Leprechauns features in the target language of Spanish. They are looking forward to St. Patricks day and hoping they can catch the "sneaky" Leprechaun. The students will be completing a reading response where they will have to design a leprechaun trap using recyclable materials they would find at home or in the classroom.
