Happy Easter

We hope everyone has a nice long weekend. It was a short but busy week. We decorated Easter eggs using shaving cream and food colouring, made some baskets and we made delicious Easter sugar cookies on Tuesday. It was so nice to be able to get outside at the end of the day for outdoor education. We found a crayfish outside, it was so exciting!

April Showers

We are hoping that April showers bring May flowers. This week we have been focusing on different ways to make the same number. For example, how many ways can you make 6? 4+2, 3+3, 5+1, etc.
We even try to trick them during our question of the day. E.g. What numbers make/= 8? 7You can ask your child simple math questions using numbers under 10 and encourage them to use their fingers to check!

Rain, Rain Go Away!

It's a rainy day but I guess we should consider ourselves lucky we haven't had a lot of indoor recesses this year. This week we made wind chimes and butterflies. We created a beautiful flower garden for our room. We have our new Malden Vet Pet centre and we are practising taking care of our animal friends. We are coming to the end of our second round of Mystery Friend and we have enjoyed all the special treasures our friends brought in. (We finally got the blog posted before March Break to publish! Make sure you have a look at it.)
