Journey Sticks

Today we went into the forest and made our own journey sticks. We found our own treasures in the forest. We saw a bunny and frogs and a slug. It was so nice in the forest. In the morning, Mrs Kitson showed us the video, The Word Indigenous explained​. Mrs. Kitson read us the book,Raven's Feast . It talked about how everyone is special and how we all can be friends. We talked about sorting and we played the game, sorting people. We played a dice game. We are practicing looking at a dice and knowing how many dots there are without counting. We can count if we do not know how many there are. Soon we will be able to read the dice without counting. That is called subitizing.We had lots of fun in music. Ask me what songs we sang. We went to the gym and played duck, duck goose. Mrs. Kitson taught us the cree words for duck and goose (sisip,niska)​. We had a fun day in KIndergarten
