This Week in Kindergarten!

This week's Discovery Bins included lots of holiday activities.

The boys and girls started off the week decorating Christmas trees (l'arbre de Noël).

Adding the correct amount of holiday erasers on the numbered lines of the trees.

                                                                                 

Hard at work counting.

Using green and red popsicle sticks to copy designs or create our own.

                             

Playing a math game.  The children had to roll a die and the first player to add all of the colourful rocks on their tree won the game.

Practicing to print the number 3.

Our house area has become Santa's workshop.  The children are having fun decorating the Christmas tree.

They have also been taking turns dressing up as Santa, Mrs. Claus and the elves.

Extending simple patterns.

Counting how many objects are on the Christmas tree.

Making yummy play-doh Christmas cookies.

Extending bear patterns and sorting the bears into cups.

Playing with the magnetic princess.

These two students thought it was an excellent idea when Mme Godin added tractors and trucks to the sandbox to help them with their special project.

Practicing our new holiday vocabulary with this fun matching game.

                                                                                       

The boys and girls really enjoy singing Quand le Père Noël vient me visiter (When Santa comes to visit).
