It was a blustery day....

Well the weather outside was frightful,  but inside the Kinders were delightful :)


We had two indoor recesses today - first recess and our lunch recess.  Without a gym period today too!- Mrs. K was a little bit worried about how the "energy levels" in the classroom would be.

Luckily - the kids kept busy, motivated, and active during the indoor recesses thanks to a great website.   It's called adventure to fitness.   It keeps kids active, while taking them for an educational tour of different places and times.  The blue class today LOVED the Dinosaur episode!

I attempted to take a picture before my camera died.. but was unsuccessful...   just imagine 21 kinders,  running in spot, jumping, hopping and climbing in front of the smartboard!

Last recess they were able to go outside and some did find a puddle - rubber boots were key today :)

This morning we had computer buddies,  read a story called Pumpkin Soup (to get us ready for our bone soup next week ( check your BEAR books for  info sheet)

We also  tried out some centers:
1) Candy Corn number match
2) smartboard letter printing - letters  P, A, T
3) counting - pumpkins in the pumpkin patch
4) chalk board wet, dry, erase practise  letters P, A, T
5) Shaving cream letter draw  ( a messy favorite)
6) Book making using our fall word wall
7) Pattern making with ghosts, eyeballs, and witches

Students rotated through 4 of the centers, and will do the remaining 3 during Thursday's center time.





Reminder -  Picture packages are due back to the school by Friday.
