This week we discovered this class is full of future Oscar winners. We continued to re-enact the story, Three Billy Goats Gruff. The children choose the character they wanted to play and everyday had to wait patiently for their name to be called. They really got into their character and did a great job remembering the lines. Ask your child to tell you about their character from the story.
We also became little farmers. We planted a variety of tomato plants, carrot seeds, bean, and radish seeds. The class has been doing a great job making sure our garden is well taken care of by watering and even weeding. They are excited to have the kalette plants, where they enjoy picking a leaf for a little snack.
Tools of the Mind Planned Play time has been keeping us busy. The class gets converted into a Pet Store, Doggy Training School, Vet Hospital, Puppy Care, S.P.C.A., and a grooming station. The class truly enjoys taking care of all of the animals and are becoming great trainers, teaching many tricks. They are also fantastic healers taking care of the hurt and not so well animals. This is a great time of the day. It gives them a chance to make a plan, decide what role they want to take on, and they get to play in an area of the classroom that they have chosen.
Reminder Kindergarten Play Ground
The Kindergarten class has asked us to please clean up after your children have played on their playground after school. They are responsible for making sure their playground equipment is put away and feel very sad when they have worked hard cleaning up and come back to school with all their things out. The Kindergarten playground is also closed after 3:30 for classes who use it during after school activities.
