Here is an overview of our morning today:
We started our day with a visit to the maker space room, we even had a chance to work on letter practice on the iPads. We then returned and had our morning meeting, we got a chance to see each family's picture from the BBQ night. After recess, and outdoor playtime we came in for Brain Gym, Question of the Day and Calendar. We are learning the days of the week and months of the year in French. Our question today, for our graph, was "Aimes-tu chanter?" "Do you like to sing?". The children put up their name under the column to show if YES, NO, or NOT SURE is their answer. Next, we learned that Mme Breton and Bebe Ellie (baby Ellie) were coming to visit us this afternoon. We practiced a welcome song for Bebe Ellie and came up with different questions we have for Mme Breton about her daughter, Bebe Ellie.
Some of our questions for Mme Breton are:
"Can she chew yet?"
"Can she draw and write yet?"
"Can she spell her name?"
"Can she chew food?"
"Can she crawl yet?"
"Can Bebe Ellie joue (play)?"
"Does bebe ellie have teeth yet?"
"Can bebe Ellie marche (walk)?"
We then estimated how big Bebe Ellie was going to be. Mme Rebecca took a photo of each child with their estimation shown with their hands for Ellie's size. We then went to the gym with some other kindergarten friends. We had a chance to play with the parachute. We worked through different games and had a lot of fun!
This afternoon Bebe Ellie came, we were so excited to see her, touch her feet to shake with her and sing to her. Bebe Ellie was crawling and trying to eat her shoes! We then had our quiet time where we drew, read and relaxed. Next we had our free exploration time and everyone had a chance to do an observational art drawing with pastels and then water colour of the sunflowers.
