| Our visit to Paynter's market on Monday it was fun. We enjoyed getting to see the orchards and the gardens and we got to pick a fresh apples from the tree. We learned a little bit of vocabulary in French for fruits and vegetables when we return to school. Thank you so much to the parents that helped out. We are continuing our introduction to the letters this week we learned the letters P, B and R. we are practicing writing the letters in capitals and we are also learning the sound and name the letter. We are continuing to practice writing our names the Kindergarten way (Capital letter at the front, lower case letters after). We are also working on learning the letters in our names in French. This week was the Terry Fox run. We learned that Terry Fox worked hard and persevered to meet his goals. We thought about what we would like to do that was hard and how we might proceed to make that happen. We also had a lot of fun running in the gym and pretending we were Terry Fox finishing the run across Canada. We graphed the number of laps each of us did. We will have many runs this year and we will try and do better and better every time. We started our afternoon work centers this week. These are centers that we can play that help us practice the things we’ve been learning about. Centers this week had letters, our names and fine motor skill activities. On Friday it was orange shirt day our school was covered with sticky notes with wonderful messages for all of us. We talked about the fact that we are all important. We decided that no one was more important than anyone else and that we needed to treat each other well and with respect. Some things we are working on: I can ask to use the washroom, to eat and to drink in French. I can introduce myself in French, and ask how someone is doing. I can sing French songs and participate in oral games and activities. I can count to 5. I can say the names and sounds of the letters F,E,B,D,P. I can write my name using upper case and lower case letters. I can use my whole body to listen. I am kind to my friends. I can wait my turn. I can share about things I like. I can move safely in space. |
