Hello everyone! Happy October! Our apologies for not posting before now. September in Kindergarten is extremely busy and hectic. Then add Covid-19 on top of the usual frenzy and time gets away from us.
We have thoroughly enjoyed getting to know our new Kindergarten kiddos these past few weeks. We know how important this first year of school is in setting up a good foundation and a positive mindset for the learning years.
As you noticed, home learning packets were sent home. These packets are ONLY to be used in the event schools are closed due to Covid-19. If that happens, we will be posting daily on our individual teacher pages to let you know what items you will need to use.
So far this year, we have learned about bus safety, playground safety, fire safety, and lockdown procedures. We have worked on name recognition and printing, the introduction of the alphabet and colours. In Math, we have introduced sorting, patterns and number sense.
Starting last week, we introduced two letters per week. Students will be practicing alphabet activities both at home and school. In Math, we began learning about numbers starting with zero.
We hope to update our teacher pages on a weekly basis. Please check our individual teacher pages for pictures of what we have been learning and activities or websites you can check out with your child.
Please feel free to email us with any questions or concerns.
Happy learning!

Hi boys and girls!
Here are the new sight words for this week: her, over, this, want. You can add these to your campfire notebooks and practice them along with the others.
This week, the staff at MAA returned to work. Our classroom is very empty without all of you in it! I miss you all so much and can't wait for the day I get to see your smiling faces again!
This week, Chase celebrated his birthday! We hope you had a great day Chase!!
Have a great week girls and boys!

Hi boys and girls!
I hope you all had a great weekend! It was so beautiful outside and I spent lots of time enjoying the nice weather. I love checking in and seeing what you all have been up to at home. I'll be calling again this week. I can't wait to talk to you!
This week's new sight words are: your, all, away, back. You can add these to your campfire notebooks and practice them at home. Don't forget to check out the pictures in the gallery of ways to practice your sight words if you haven't checked them out already.
Hope you all have a great week!

Hi everyone!
This week, I am adding list 13 to our sight word practice. You can add these words to your campfire notebooks and practice them using some of the ideas from the sight word choice board that is also posted on my teacher page.
The new words are: day, down, into, looking
I hope you get a chance to practice these new words, along with some of the home learning opprotunities this week.
Please also remember to check out Raz Kids, where students can listen to and read books aloud. If you have any questions about this, please send me an email.
Math: This week students are asked to practice naming 2D and 3D shapes. Just a reminder that Kindergarten students do not need to name 3D shapes using proper names. Instead, they can refer to a cube as a box, a cylinder as a can, and a sphere as a ball.
Hope you have a great week! Happy Learning!
