Translating Patterns
Today we talked about the environment. Mrs. Kitson read us the story, Places of Power. It was a story about how the indigenous people valued Mother Earth. We talked about our favourite place to go in nature. We drew our own natural environments. We watched a video about how we can take care of our planet. We are bringing home a new book. We like reading our books at home. We practiced translating patterns with unifix cubes, We are excited to show something special to our families on our Kindergarten Celebration Day on June 19th. We always have the most fun at Wondertime. It was a lovely day in Kindergarten.

A Visit to The Hair Salon
Today we had lots of fun at Wondertime. We have a new hairdressing area. In the morning we read a new book. It had lots of words in it. We practiced the vowel sounds and we sounded out the words. We practiced subitizing when we played a dice game. We worked in our lifebooks. We listened for the sylables in the words and wrote the sounds we heard. We learned about our new Kimochi friend. Her name is Cat. Ask me about her.

The Easter Egg Hunt Finally Happened
We are bringing home a new book about an ant.We are getting good at reading our little books. Let me read to you. You can help me too. We are practicing our subitizing. We made our own number 5 book with fireflies. We met a new Kimochi friend. His name is Bug. We talked about a time when we were afraid to do something new. Bug is afraid of change. We learned how you can still have feelings of being scared to try new things, but you can also be brave. In the afternoon we went on an Easter Egg Hunt. It was a chocolatey day in Kindergarten.
