Tuesday February 18


We have a new student teacher Miss Gaspar (Miss G) from the University of Calgary who will be joining us until April 24th. She is in her 2nd and final year practicum and we are very lucky to have her with us!

We read, Animal Camouflage in the Snow and watched Animals with Winter coats. We talked about how animals adapt to their environment in the winter. Ask your child what adaptation means and which animals adapt to our environment. We created a concept map to organize our thinking about Winter animals.

We did a guided drawing of an animal that adapts to winter conditions. The AM drew a rabbit and PM drew a fox. We used art hub for kids to help us draw step by step.

Mrs. Conley and Mrs. Watterson's classes had music and Mrs. Mask's classes had gym.

This Friday is PM kindergarten. NO school for AM.

Our arrival centers included a chance to explore shapes.  We built buildings with shapes, used plasticine & toothpicks to make 3-D shapes, used geo-boards & elastics to make shapes and played shape roll & write.  Please ask your child what shape center they explored today.
