Today we celebrated the arrival of fall in Room 8. We read some stories, learned about the different types of leaves and made fall patterns. We rubbed leaves with crayons to see their veins and made beautiful art at the same time. In the afternoon, the children wrote simple fall poems, created lovely pastel and watercolour paintings and enjoyed a delicious apple taste test. Happy fall!

Home Practice
We have been reviewing the letter names and sounds this week. The students use the Letter Factory actions to help them recall the sound each letter makes. We have played alphabet bingo on the smartboard to practice. Here is the link so you can play at home as well: http://www.abcya.com/kindergarten_alphabet_bingo.htm

First Day
We enjoyed a wonderful day getting to know one another. We played some name games and worked on a friend detective.
We also decided what we want our classroom to be like and created our "We Believe" poster. We decided that we will:
Be safe
Be kind
Do our best to learn.
Looking forward to a terrific year with your children!
