Police visit the school!

Hello parents of Kindergarten A!

I hope you have enjoyed your long weekend and are looking forward to International Culture Festival!

This week in Kinder we have been continuing our studied of ancient civilizations with a focus on Japan!

We looked at our family kamon, yokai, important people from Japanese history, clothing and Ukiyo-e pictures of Osaka from the sengoku and meiji periods.

English

We have continued to practice our sight words, phonics and our handwriting.

More and more members of our class are enjoying writing letters to each other inviting them to games around the classroom.

Maths

In our maths class we practiced skip counting, and reinforced our knowledge of addition and subtraction

Police Presentation

This week we had the local police come in and talk with all of us about road safety, stranger danger and how to protect ourselves when out in the community.

We all found it very interesting and we took time in class to discuss different situations and what we should do.

I have also suggested to students to have a special password with their parents,where do go if you feel unsafe as well as other useful information. 

Being big sisters and brothers

This week we also spent time getting to know our friends in preschool.

We showed them the yoga and toys we use in class. Our dance moves and favorite songs and most importantly how to play nicely with others, how to share, how to ask for toys and how to be responsible.
