Dear Mom and Dad:
AM class: We explored using
watercolor pencils today. Ask me to tell you how they work! Also, we practiced
drawing shapes and coloring in the lines. My teachers are looking at my work
for the EYE (early years evaluation) on how I can draw shapes. Mrs. Joy and
Mrs. Joanne came to our class this morning to talk about safety and how to
cross a crosswalk! We missed the safety assembly last week so it was wonderful
that they came to give us a safety presentation. I will be bringing home a
safety package tomorrow.
PM class: We worked with Mrs. Jones
and Mrs. Southworth today. We learned about what ‘personal space’ means. Ask me
to tell you what it means. Personal space is an important concept for me to
learn in kindergarten. We practiced drawing people today. Did you know that
when I am drawing people, I should have a neck and body (no stickmen). I can
practice this at home.
Question of the day: Post on the
blog what “personal space” means.
Love,
Kindergarten
Housekeeping:
ME bags presentations tomorrow if you have the bag
this week.
Student Led Learning Walks offer you and your child(ren) an
opportunity to glimpse a snapshot of what “writing to communicate and represent”
looks like at every grade level across Cranston School with your child as the
guide.
Families
whose last names begin with A – L attend on Wed. Oct. 21/15
Families
whose last names begin with M – Z attend on Thu. Oct. 22/15
*While
there will be teachers from every grade level present both evenings, not every
teacher will be present both evenings. All student work will be on display both
evenings.
**If there are families who are getting family photos done on
Thursday whose last name begins with A-L, you can choose to come whichever
night works best JJ
Attention
All Cranston Families:
We are
in need of 5 more babies, ages 6 months and younger, to participate in our
Roots of Empathy program. If you have family members, friends or neighbors
who would be willing to volunteer 45 minutes/month with their babies to the
school we would love to talk to them! Please contact Mrs. Susanne Jones
at the office 403-777-6267 ext. '0' for further information or if you would
like the school to contact them directly. Thanks so much! Roots of
Empathy begins in classrooms over the next two weeks and we would love to go
forward with a full complement of 14 baby teachers!
Thank
you!
Mrs.
Kinsman (Principal)
