It's Friiiiiday, Friiiiiday!

Well hello everyone,

For a day that began wet, snowy and cold, it sure ended up changing after Mr. Sun came out!

Today was a special day for everyone in our JKA class because... well, I'm sure everyone knows just why it was so special.... it was PANCAKE DAY!

Due to popular demand, knowing just how much everyone (including myself) loves hot, fresh pancakes, I knew that Pancake Day just had to happen. As a class, we all worked together to make these pancakes, which turned out deliciously chocolatey if I do say so myself. Mr. R. and I were the pancake "chefs," and worked together to entertain all of the boys and girls by attempting to make a batch of pancakes. You just need to take a look at everyone's chocolatey faces to know how much they enjoyed eating these pancakes!

We also worked on perfecting our written formations of the letter Gg. In order to do so, we did a few work sheets and also did some phonetics-based activities. Again, I encourage all parents to aid their children with tracing and recognizing the letters that we have learned in class thus far. These include all of the vowels, Bb, Cc, Dd, Ff, Gg, and Hh.

We also had silent reading time, story time and french class.

Following second lunch, students were split into four groups for centres. These centers included the following listed below:

-Sorting: sorting coloured bingo chips into small clear containers
-Building: done through the uses of magnetic foam shapes as well as wooden building blocks
-Drawing: markers and paper to create their own masterpieces
-Play doh: using play doh cut outs (alphabet-themed) to further improve their knowledge of the alphabet


I wish everyone a wonderful, safe, enjoyable and active weekend. I will see everybody on Monday.

Regards,


Miss H.
