This Week in Kindergarten!

On Monday, the boys and girls were very excited to begin decorating the Valentine envelopes that they designed last week.

They could chose from a variety of materials and had to use both glue sticks and liquid glue.

They were free to decorate as they wanted.

The children worked very hard to make unique envelopes!

All of the Valentine envelopes were beautiful and ready to be filled with cards from our friends on Wednesday.

Mme Donna was back on Tuesday.  She had styrofoam balls wrapped in plastic to help us mold our bowls.  The balls were placed in a special cup so that they would not fall off the tables.

Listening carefully to Mme Donna's instructions.

The children had to flatten the clay around the ball.

They also had to roll out a snake shape and attach it to the bottom of the bowl to make a base.

Hard at work making a Voyageur.

We had lots of practice tracing and cutting "la tuque rouge", "les mocassins" et "les mitaines".

All of these Voyageur are looking forward to "Le festival du Voyageur" next week.

Just a reminder that your child may dress as a Voyageur at school next week.

Another SMARTboard game to practice the new Voyageur vocabulary.
