Copperfield Kindergarten 2023-2024

Today was our Kindergarten assembly.  Both AM and PM classes did an amazing job showing all of their learning.  A big thank you to all the families that came out to support their little ones- the big smiles on everyone's faces were so heartwarming! We are so proud of our Kindergarten classes and cannot believe how much they have grown this year! Reminders: -PM attends tomorrow -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 recognize and read these letters and words from my heart!

 Today we introduced a new heart word: Like.  As with all of our other heart words, we want to begin using them in various contexts to make meaning.  We used the word 'like' to write the sentence: "I like..." Students copied the sentence starter and finished the sentence with what they like.  Please practice with me at home!

We continue our learning of composing numbers but are now extending to make 10. We used double sided counters and played "shake and spill" to help us find different ways to make 10.

Today we learned about measuring the LENGTH of objects.  We practiced using the words: LONGER and SHORTER to describe length.  Using a classroom ruler, we went around the room measuring objects that might be longer or shorter than the ruler.  Please help me practice using these measurement words in my daily life!

We have been working hard on making pairs of 5 in different ways. We have now taken all of that knowledge and created our own math stories today. Ask me to tell you about what my story was about. I had to think of what happened first, next and last. An example might be "once upon a time, there were 2 apples, and then 3 came along and now there are 5.
