This Week in Kindergarten!

We all survived our very first week of kindergarten!  What a fun and busy week it was.  The children are practicing to find the correct group of friends to sit with at carpet time.

We practiced getting to know our friends' names.

The morning class printing their names and drawing their faces.

The afternoon class hard at work.

Learning about circles (les cercles).

Finding objects in the class that are red "rouge".

Decorating the first letters of our names.

Practicing the new word "le cercle" (circle).

The afternoon class finding objects that are red.

Decorating the first letter of our names with stickers, feathers, jewels and more.

This week we continued to explore the many games, centres and toys in the classroom.

We learned to share materials with others.

Some of the children created art projects for their families.

Others were busy building.

And some of our friends were baking beautiful Play-doh cookies.

This group of students built an extremely high magna tile castle.

Playing a freeze dance game with the afternoon class.  When the music stopped, the children were frozen and repeated the words "le cercle" (circle).

Practicing to hold a pencil correctly.

Buying groceries for our families.

Imaginative play at the dollhouse and in the sandbox.

The afternoon class' beautiful letters.

The morning class' beautiful letters.
