Happy Friday!
We had a very busy week and topped it off with another great day! We had a day of catching up and continuing to work our "being at school" skills. Thank you so much for talking with your children about their names. It was so interesting to hear of all their stories. Please some pictures below of us sharing the story of our names.
Have a wonderful weekend!
Hello Wild Rose and Mountain View Families!
Today we read the story "Alma and How She Got Her Name" by Juana Martinez - Neal, and discussed the stories behind our names and what makes them unique. We then created a visual journal page, using illustrations and writing, of what makes us special. In math, we worked on creating patterns using our names as the core.
Ask me about our "sit spot" and the story "No One But You" by Douglas Wood.
Special Homework:
The students were asked to discover the story of their name, so they may have some questions when they come home today. We will have an opportunity tomorrow to share the unique stories.
Welcome Back!
We hope that you all had a safe and relaxing long weekend!
Today we had our first scheduled P.E. class outside. Thank you for all dressing for the weather, as it was a bit chilly this morning.
The Mountain View kids had their first music class with Mrs. Coulson and Wild Rose will have their turn tomorrow. If you are unsure the name of your child's group, just ask them as they will know.
Please complete and return your child's information package as soon as possible. The package went home on Friday in a brown envelope.
As a safety precaution, if your child is wearing a lanyard/string attached to their mask, please be sure that it can break away. Thank you!
Here are some of our favourite things from today!
E: "I like in music when we got to choose our animals."
E: "When we read the story about Elwood and the trees."
C: "I had fun in gym!"
E: "I liked playing on the compound during lunch recess."
Hello Families!
We had another fun and busy day! Everyone is starting to get used to all the new procedures, thank you for all your support.
Today we had a Welcome Back Assembly via Google Meets from our classrooms. Mrs. Kinsman and Mr. Strand were able to read "We learn from the Sun" by David Bouchard, which is our peace book for this school year.
Fanny Packs
Our current practice when students are leaving the building for outside time or mask breaks is to use a Ziploc bag assigned to each child to store their masks with an adult. We have noticed that some students are using fanny packs to carry their masks and own handsantizers, which seems to work really well to keep them with the child and avoid any additional handling.
We would welcome families that choose to, to send a fanny pack with their child for mask storage, however if you choose not to we will continue to offer the Ziploc bags for storage.
