Wednesday September 30

Today is Orange Shirt Day.  We read, "The Sharing Circle" and then had our own sharing circle in class. We shared about what makes us happy.  Ask your child, what is a sharing circle and what rules do we follow when we are having a sharing circle. 

We read, "You Hold Me Up." This story is about how we can love and support each and to consider each other’s well-being in their everyday actions. We got an orange heart and drew something inside the heart that holds us up. 

You can listen to You Hold Me Up here.

We learned about 2 of the primary colors, red and yellow.  We learned that if you mix red and yellow you can make orange.  We practiced mixing red and yellow to make orange.  Once we had the shade of orange we liked, we painted an orange shirt in our journals.

Please remember to return your library book tomorrow.

Yesterday the PM kindergarten practiced our first Fire Drill at school. They did an amazing job! They all followed the 3 S rule- safe, silent and serious. We have chatted with our AM kindergarten about fire drills and how we can safely exit the building. 

This Friday is AM kindergarten. We are asking the children to bring a small ziplock bag of leaves with them on Friday for a project. Please collect fresh leaves, we are using them in an art project and the crunchy leaves won't glue. Thank you! :)

Today is Picture Day at school!  We love seeing everyone dressed in their finest with their bright smiles. We continued to talk about our families and drew a picture with sharpie of the people who live in our house.  We read the story "We Belong Together" by Todd Parr.  We also had a chance to explore our new Fall loose part bags.  Please ask your child what was in the bag and what stories they were able to tell. We had music with Mrs. Coulson.  Please ask your child what they did in the music room. Please note: library book exchange will happen on Wednesday this week as there is no school on Thursday.  Please send your child's book to school with them Wednesday if they would like to get a new book.
