Pink Shirt Day!

Pink Shirt day was a success!! The hallway in the morning looked like a sea of pink. Once we were done admiring everyone's pink clothes we moved on to learning our new letter person! Today we met Mr. Gg. Mr. G has gooey gum in his hair and may very well be a cousin to Mr. J as we learned when we were making our word web. Due to the cold weather we decided not to go skating and instead had an afternoon filled with library, BINGO and a Kindness assembly.
We talked about what a Bully is and what you can do if someone is bullying you. You should be very proud of your children as we had over 150 entries in our Random Acts of Kindness draw. As most of you know, the field trip to TH Ranch on Friday has been rescheduled until March 13. Have a great evening!

Sorry it has been so long since my last post! We had an exciting day today. We reviewed all of the letters we had learned up until now and did some more exploring around the letter Dd. Everyone did a great job of printing both upper and lower case letter D. After snack, we worked on our letter recognition by splitting into two groups to play BINGO. Your children are doing such an fabulous job of learning how to sign on to the computers. After only two times on our own in the computer lab, they are able to get themselves signed in. The Grade 3 class was kind enough to let us join them in the Big Gym where we got to play games that they had invented. The kindergarten kids had a great time.
**Just some reminders for Wednesday. They have moved our hot lunch to this day and it is also Pink Shirt Day. Your kids will have notes to explain each of these events more fully. Have a nice evening.

We had a great day in Kindergarten today. We learned about the letter Ll. Mr. L has Lovely Lemondrops on his shirt. In the afternoon we headed down to the computer lab to learn how to sign in with our "super secret" passwords. We spent some time in Tux Paint where the kids has a lot of fun designing art work and discovering how the program worked. The day ended with exploring the classroom with magnifying glasses.
