Happy Halloween

Today we had a Halloween Party. We made popcorn hands and paper monsters. We made a special witch's broom and decorated a Halloween cookie. We played fun games. We played ghost bowling, eyeball racing, roll a spider and ring toss. Ask me what game was my favourite. We had lots of fun playing Bite the Ghost.

Thank you to the volunteers who came to help and/or sent in goodies. We could not have had such a great party without you.

Happy Halloween.

Tasting Time

Today we made fried potatoes. We ate the potatoes with our homemade ketchup. We continue to practice learning our letter sounds. We are learning our sounds by studying our friends' names. We clap our names, listen for beginning sound and look at the shapes of the letters. We like to make up stories with the letter we are learning. Today our letter was J. We listened to the story, Room on the Broom. We put the story in the correct sequence. I can practice retelling the stories you read to me at bedtime. We played a silly spider dice game and made our own Room on the Broom stories. It was a witchy kind of day in Kindergarten.

Going on a Nature Hunt

Today we went on a nature walk. One of our friends brought in a big leaf he found camping. Mrs. Kitson told us it was a plant called Cow Parsnip. We learned that it was named cow parsnip because it kind of smells like a cow. We looked for the plant in our forest and we found it. We looked at all the different plants in the forest. We are practicing our sounds. We are learning about the letters in our names and listening for beginning, middle and end sounds. We look at the shape and size of the letters. We like to listen to The Better Alphabet Song. We had lots of fun playing at centers. We love playing in the water table, painting and building with the building materials. We had a fun day in Kindergarten.
