    The Kindergarten Times

    It is through Gods strength that we


    know courage, and through His power
    that knows goodness.
    - Judith C. Lechman
    November 2014

    Dear Parents,
    I am thankful for another
    great month of kindergarten. We
    were kept busy with many special
    events but most importantly, we
    took the time to stop, reflect and
    give thanks for all the wonderful
    gifts we are blessed with.
    What We Did
    We have completed a
    number of beautiful art projects
    such as sunflowers, fall trees and
    apple print paintings. We had a
    wonderful kinder cooking day
    making apple crisp. It turned out
    great! Our students are quite the
    budding young chefs.
    Bears and cars came up as a
    topic of interest. We identified
    the different kinds of bears, their
    habits and the different
    characteristics they have (did you
    know that polar bears have black
    skin). We explored cars, their
    wheels, what we drive at home and
    our parking lot and incorporated
    many math activities.

    We also planted tulip bulbs


    in the courtyard and are excited
    to see what grows in the Spring!
    In math we continue to have
    fun learning our numbers from 1-10
    as well as recognizing and
    extending patterns. I have just
    introduced how to sort by colors,
    shapes and size. In language
    learning we will continue to print
    our names every morning and share
    our learning in our journals.
    Family Photo
    Please bring in a photo of your
    family. We are posting them on our
    wall and the children love looking
    at them. Thanks.

    Memory Work for November


    Birthdates - please help your
    child learn his/her birthdate.
    Continue working on letters at
    home and promote printing your
    childs name using a capital for
    the first letter only.

    Volunteers
    I am so thankful to all the
    parents who have helped in the
    classroom and to those that bring
    in supplies for kinder cooking days.
    I feel very blessed to have such
    loving and caring group of parents
    and children.

    Scholastic book orders


    Special thanks goes out to
    Please make checks out to
    Scholastic Canada Ltd. Next order
    is due November 19th.
    Home Reading
    I encourage reading at least
    two books a night with your child
    but understand how busy life can
    be. An alternative: reading street
    signs, road names and billboards is
    another great way to encourage
    reading. If your child shows an
    interest in ballet or soccer, for
    example, try getting them books on
    these subjects from the library.
    Parent Teacher Night
    I loved meeting all of you! I am
    very proud of your children and
    this program and loved sharing
    what we are busy doing in our
    amazing classroom. It is important
    that we communicate with each
    other and work together to help
    make your child successful
    learners at school.

    Keyara and Adam Sawatzky for


    the very generous donation to
    buy books for the classroom.
    Sherri Carlson for our classroom
    kettle (for playdoh)
    Olumide Adekogba for the craft
    supplies
