Colder Weather!

Now that the cooler weather has arrived, please make sure that your child is dressed accordingly.  It is especially cool in the mornings and there are many students with cold ears and hands.

The boys and girls are outside for 15 minutes at recess time.  The morning class has recess from 9:55 a.m. until 10:10 a.m. and the afternoon class from 1:45 p.m. until 2:00 p.m.

Please help your child further develop independence by having him/her dress independently.  Take some time to practice at home if needed.  Your child show know how to put his/her arms in the sleeves of his/her jacket without someone holding the jacket.  They should also know how to fix sleeves that are inside out.  Have your child practice putting on and removing shoes or boots.  Remind your child that the last thing they should put on are their mittens as it is difficult to dress yourself with mittens on.  Mme Godin is happy to start up zippers as these can be tricky at times.
Remember that one of the kindergarten learning outcomes is to develop independence in your child.

Please label all items of clothing as many children have the same or similar toques mittens, jackets, etc.

Merci!
Mme Godin
