We were excited to look at the Kindergarten showcase today. Thank you to the kindergarten students and teachers for inviting us to view their learning.
We played math games. Students were given choice between a number of math games that we have learned such as rainbow bump, connect four, doubles race, trash can math, race to the top, doubles snap and tens partners. All of these games help us practice our addition and mental math skills.
During literacy time students read to self and read and to a partner. Some students listened to stories on bookflix. Bookflix is available for free through Learn Alberta. You'll just need to sign in with the following:

We had a STEM challenge today (Science Technology Engineering and Math) to build different things out of lego. These challenges teach us to persevere, be creative, to collaborate with others. STEM challenges are all about the thought process and thinking like a STEMist improves problem solving in all areas of life. Ask your child what they built today!
In gym we had relays. We moved at various levels and speeds, working to improve our coordination. Students crab walked, bear walked, skipped, galloped, army crawled, ran, and shuffled today.
We also watched a Mystery Science video and learned why we have leap years!
