Snails and Letters!

Hello Parents!

It's been a very snaily week in Kindergarten! We've found God's fingerprints all over these animals as we've learned about what their shell is for, where they live, what they eat, and how they move (slime!).

some snails made by pipe cleaners come home!

store name, not mine!)

This week has also seen a lot of social learning, as we work on our goal to be a good friend to all our classmates, and literacy learning with new letters and books that we can all read together.

Retelling a familiar story

Making letters with loose parts bins!

And some other learning!

Making patterns (after she sorted colours)

"Can we make more arks for the art centre?"

Fine motor skill development

Highlights this week from the students: learning letters, learning the letter I, counting, holding the snail, making an ark, playing with new friends, going in the library centre, being a good leader, playing outside, and as one student said "I can't pick Miss K. I just liked everything!"

Have a wonderful weekend!

As an FYI, this is next week!
