Our amazing Kindergarteners are currently learning the first unit of inquiry, WHO WE ARE with the central idea - EVERYONE AND EVERYTHING IS UNIQUE. In this unit, kinders are  aware that everyone and everything shows similarities and differences which make them special.

In Social Studies, they were able to make connections of the learner profile_- CARING to the Pillar in September which is KINDNESS. They were exposed to a lot of fiction and non fiction texts about being kind and caring. During our Morning Meeting / share - our kinders were able to share a time when they were being kind and caring. They were open minded and communicators in the classroom sharing their perspectives about being caring and kind as well as being special. They learned the poem  " Kindness Is A Rule".

In Math, they were able to communicate how each number is formed through different lines, compare and contrast numbers within 5, sort items that go together based on their  likenesses and differences and counted the squares to find the hidden partners  using cubes. They were thinkers when decomposing numbers within 5. 

In Science, our kindergarteners worked like a mini scientist recording what they observed when tracking the weather.They were asking questions ( inquirers ). They were introduced to the three big units that they will be learning in Science - TREES AND WEATHER, MATERIALS AND MOTION and ANIMALS AND THEIR ENVIRONMENT.When asked what they know about trees, each one communicated their opinions. Everyone’s opinion was valued and respected. To enhance their skill of identifying the type of weather, they sing the weather song on a daily basis.They were able to categorize some weather words using the WEATHER Chart.

In Wonders, our kindergarteners enjoyed the stories WHAT ABOUT BEARS and POUCH and made great connections of themselves to the texts. They were able to retell the stories using retelling cards and looking at the pictures across the page as one of the reading strategies.

 Kindergartners are continuing learning “ALL ABOUT ME / WHO WE ARE” and they are happy to share more with you.

COMING SOON IS OUR FIRST SHOWCASE OCTOBER 22,2025
