Lockdown Drill
Today the afternoon class practiced their first lockdown drill.  When we have a lockdown drill, we close the door and all sit in the special spot as quietly as possible until an assigned person opens the door for us.

Canadian Animals
We had many new science centers today.  Check out the pictures below to see some of them.

 Literacy
Today we read the story I Want My Hat Back by, Jon Klassen.   We stopped reading the story part way through to have the students make their reasonable predictions on what happened and record their observations in their visual journals.

 Math
We are starting our days with number recognition and counting one-to-one activities.


 Special Visitor
This Thursday, November 28, we have a special visitor. Please send ONE stuffed animal with your child's name on it to school on Thursday.

 No School this Friday, for a school PD day.

Hello Everyone, Over the last few days we have continued to participate in activities to build our classroom community and get to know each other better.  In Math we have begun to work on sorting objects in more than one way and explain the sorting rule.  In Literacy students have been participating in read a louds, responding to reading, printing the letter F, the sound that F makes and words that begin with F. We have also gone outside with both AM and PM classes to the pond as part of environmental education.  The students came back and recorded as a whole class what they saw, what the walk made them think about, and what they wondered while they were there. In gym the students have been exploring movement with music. Please remember to return the school forms if you have not already done so.  Interviews are this Thursday and Friday and therefore there will be no school for Kindergarten students on either of these days. Thank you to everyone who has already ...
