This Week in Kindergarten!

On Monday, April 22nd it was Earth Day.  We started off the week watching a series of very short videos called "Les aventures d'Écolo-fille".  She is a super hero who wants to save the planet.  We also kept the lights off in the classroom all day long.

We have also been singing a song by local artist Jacques Chenier called "Notre terre"  (Our earth).

We had many discussions about recycling.

Reducing.

And reusing.

We used coffee filters, blue and green markers and a spray bottle of water to make our beautiful planet, Earth.

The morning class' earths.

And the afternoon class' earths.

As part of our "All About Me" unit in Social Studies, the boys and girls drew pictures of their bedrooms.

We also practiced printing the letter S.

And on Tuesday afternoon and Thursday morning the students watched dress rehearsals of the grade 3 to 5 spring musical "Return of the Glass Slipper".

What a talented group of students we have at École Assiniboine.  The kindergarten students enjoyed watching some of their older siblings and classroom helpers perform!

The children also extended ABC, AAB and ABB Earth day patterns.
