Today we did the next section in our Phenology wheel.  We have been carefully documenting the seasonal changes that happen to a tree.  Please take some time when you are out and about to look at all the changes that are starting as the weather warms up!

Our First Day

  Hello families and welcome to our kindergarten blog! We will be updating this blog daily with what we have been working on and important information and updates about our class. Please check it regularly as this is our main form of communication with you. This will also help connect you with what is happening at school so you can guide those conversations with your child at home and ask them "tell me more about......". We had a wonderful first staggered entry day yesterday. Your children were absolutely wonderful and they did so great! Thank you for your help in prepping them for this milestone. Ask your child to share with you some of the things they learned about the kindergarten teachers. We worked on practicing printing our name and drawing a picture of us on the first day of school.  We look forward to seeing you on Tuesday September 5 during our regular kindergarten hours. AM Class 8:15-11:15am PM Class 12:05-3:05pm Have a wonderful long weekend and see you on Tuesday...

I can learn about the Green Zone

Today we learned that we have feelings and that we can feel different ones throughout the day. We learned about the different feelings zones. We call it "The Zones of Regulation". We focused on what it means to be in the green zone and talked about what puts us in this zone. We learned that this is an important zone to be in, especially at school because this is the zone that helps us be ready for learning. Ask me to share with you what puts me in the green zone. Some strategies that help us get into the green zone might be reading a book, getting a hug, playing with someone etc. In the next couple of weeks, we will be talking about each of the different zones to help us regulate our emotions. We learned that it is OK to be in ANY of the zones.  Reminders: *** If you are interested in volunteering in our classroom, we would love for you to come in whenever is most convenient for you!  If you have your police clearance and are interested, please email your child's teacher!...

We are continuing to work on gaining fluency and independence when naming the number pairs of 10.  Today we played "Mystery Number 10" to practice this skill.  One friend would hide a certain number of blocks from 10 behind their back, and the partner would quickly guess how many they were hiding, based off of the number of blocks remaining on the table.  This games helps me practice subitizing, adding, subtracting and recalling number pairs of 10 quickly in my head!   Reminders: -AM Kindergarten attends on Friday -Please return library books for Thursday book exchange! -Books that were borrowed from the Seton library from our field trip can be returned to the school by the end of the school year. If it is after, you can return them at any Calgary Public Library in the city to avoid any late fees. These are all the heart words and letters that I should know for this time of year.  Please practice these words and letters with me.  I should be able to re...
