Monday April 6

Please note: We are hoping to see pictures of all our Kindergarten friends hard at work at home. If you have not emailed a picture of your child to your child's responsibility teacher, could you please do so by end of day Tuesday, April 7.  Thank you to many of our friends who have sent us pictures of all the interesting learning they are doing while at home.  

Learning Intention of the Week (Early Literacy)
  • I can identify the main characters, events and setting in a story.
  • I can organize information and compare stories by describing similarities and differences among them. 
Learning Intention of the Week (Mathematics) 
  • I can show, describe and compare quantities of things up to 10 (identify numbers). 
  • I can count and sequence numbers in order to 10 (forwards and backwards).
Please enjoy the morning message:

Morning Message

Math Activity:
What Number Am I? 
Materials - strip of paper, pencil, marker (ie. game piece or button or coin or rock or gem)

Make a simple number line with your child. Please see link below:

Help them solve the problem by moving a marker as you read the clues below:

I am more than 2
I am less than 7.
I am more than 3.
I am less than 5.
What Number Am I?

I am more than 3.
I am less than 9.
I am more than 6.
I am less than 8.
What Number Am I?

Extension: Can you think of your own number questions?

Literacy Activity:
Materials - blue journal, pencil and pencil crayons

Today we are going to listen to the story and then draw the setting and characters in your blue journal. In your picture, label your drawing with the letter sounds you know or write out the characters at the bottom of your page. 

Listen to the Story The Three Little Pigs

Challenge of the day:
Build a home for a pig out of materials that the wolf could not blow down! What kind of house would you make? How could you make it solid enough so the wolf won't get in!

Extension: You could do these 3 different challenges if you have these items at home:
 - building a house out of straw (plastic or paper straws), sticks (toothpicks and marshmallows) and bricks (LEGO bricks).

Then compare the structures to see what was the strongest and stayed intact vs. which they could knock over, etc. They will especially love trying to “blow them down.”
