Welcome to Kindergaten!

Somebody came to visit Kindergarten! 


It has been busy and fun getting to know all the wonderful Kindergarten students. This last week we worked on the letter Ff, read books to celebrate dot week. The Dot, Press Here and 10 Black Dots all helped us explore dots in our art, playdough and outside! 
We have been working on a variety of skills to help our Kindergarten run smoothly. To help us grow and learn we have our very own Mr. Monster who visits our class to watch for super, duper Kindergarten Kids. Mr. Monster picks 2 kids each day that have shown some skills that are helpful for learning and growing in Kindergarten! Mr. Monster leaves the special students a baby monster to take home! When your child comes home with one, be sure to ask them what special skills Mr. Monster saw! 

See you on Tuesday! The K team.

Swimming and Safety City Fun!

Monday started our last week of school. We had movie morning, popcorn and swimming. Mrs. Trider brought in her polish and did some fancy work on fingernails! A fun morning of singing along to Frozen and
cooling off in the pool!









 
 



Today we headed off to Safety City! It was a great day to be outside. The Kinder Kids did a good job of practicing to be pedestrians and having turns at driving. Sometimes you needed to be very careful as a pedestrian!! Lots of fun watching the students drive and watch for stop signs, stop lights and pedestrians!







 



Thank you to all the wonderful parent volunteers who came with us today! Your help is appreciated!

See you tomorrow for our last day of Kindergarten! 
The K team!

Boston Pizza Fun!!

We had a great time on our Field Trip today. The Kinder Kids did an amazing job walking all the way there and back and showing what great manners they had while at the restaurant. Natalie at Boston Pizza did a super job taking us through the kitchen to show us how things work and of course the pizza making and eating was the best part. A big thank you to Boston Pizza for such a fun field trip! Treat bags and certificates are coming home on Monday! 






 



 

 

 



 
 

After we finished our delicious pizza we headed to the park to play for a bit and celebrate Sienna's birthday. Thank you Mrs. Gustafson for the cold treats! 

Don't forget we are heading to the Library downtown on Tuesday and all field trip forms need to be back on Monday!

Have a fantastic weekend!
