Super Citizens
In December, we learned a lot about being good citizens and how to make a difference in our school and our community. We read "Ruby's Hope" and "Christmas Trolls" and talked about "The Grinch that Stole Christmas" which all have wonderful messages about sharing and learning to care for others. As a class, we decided to collect food for the food bank to help those in our community who needed it. The children were so generous that our box was overflowing with food! The kids also decided that we should do something for our Grade 4 helpers who come at lunch to help us, so we shared our gingerbread cookies with them and made them snowman thank-you cards. It was great for the kids to see how simple things can make a difference!

'Tis The Season!
We are now in the Christmas season and the kids are getting very excited! Last week the Grade 4A kids came to help us write our Santa letters. Everyone worked very hard and so we made plans to walk to the Post Office to mail the letters. Unfortunately the weather has been so cold that we haven't even been out for recess! But no worries - the letters were sent after school today and we now will have to be patient waiting for our replies...

Learning About Letters
Each week we concentrate on learning a new letter. We meet the animated literacy puppet and learn it's story, song and action. We practice printing the letter and learn about the sound it makes. One of our favorite activities is forming letters and words with Play-Doh.

A Walk in the Park
We often spend time down in Legion Park. We walk, play games, look for signs of fall and of course check out the trees as part of our science curriculum. These Kindergarten kids are so easy to photograph!
