Wonderful December!

December came to a wonderful end of our school year with so much fun! A couple of highlights were decorating gingerbread men with our grade six buddies. All the students showed a tremendous amount of creativity and sharing. It was a super shared experience for both grades. At the end of our gingerbread unit, our class gingerbread boy snuck away with our treats which ended in a huge gingerbread man hunt!! The students were extremely excited to track down our sneaky cookie and were happy in the end when we found him with our treats and gingerbread ornament to decorate too!  Another fun thing the students tried their hand at was working cooperatively with others to create a cup stacking Christmas tree! Last was our amazing Christmas concert. The students put a lot of heart and soul into singing their songs and the result was outstanding!  Way to go kindergarten you did an amazing job, everyone is so proud of you!! Have a wonderful Christmas break, play safe and have fun!  See you next year!

Gingerbread Cookie Decorating

Let's find that runaway gingerbread man!  

Cup stacking Christmas Trees!

Talented Singers!!

Run run as fast as you can you can't catch me I'm the gingerbread man!

We are having so much fun with our gingerbread activities. Painting big gingerbread cookies with our own faces on them was awesome!  They are all hanging in the hallway if you want to take a look! The students are so excited to hear many many different types of Gingerbread stories and notice the similarities and differences between the stories! There have been many discussions and predictions if our own gingerbread man will escape from his bag and if so how?? As Christmas is just around the corner we are also having fun in Santa's workshop and experimenting with creating very imaginative Christmas trees! Such a fun and exciting time of year!

Busy in Santa's workshop!!

Special Me!!

The students are learning how unique and special each of us are. We have been talking about all our similarities, which leads to a super sorting activity, as well as our differences. The students all agree it would be a pretty boring life if we were all exactly the same. We are also noting how much we have changed and grown up since birth and all the accomplishments we have done and yet to do. It has been fun for the students to look at each others baby pictures and see if they can recognize their friends, although I see many similarities in the photos compared to now, it seems the students don't! They are getting quite a laugh out of the experience just the same!  See if you can guess some of the children!

Halloween Fun!!

We had such a good time in Kindergarten celebrating Halloween. We made a special snack, had a costume parade to Salem Manor, paraded around the gym and played special Halloween games. The children's costumes were outstanding as well as their behaviour! What an amazing day! Thanks for all your help parents!
