A sunshiny day of learning!

 Today the class did some writing in their journals. Many students drew pictures of and wrote about the popular movie "Frozen".
At the block centre R.G and J.M built Elsa's castle.

Students can be seen using books to help them in their play. Here M.D is learning about construction workers. At our dramatic play centre students opened a restaurant and read recipe books. At the art table, they are using arts and craft books to inspire them. We've seen a lot of masks, airplanes, and origami frogs!
At the writing table there are jenga blocks with letters and words on them. C.A was able to match some of our blocks to words on our word wall.  The students had fun building up the jenga blocks and seeing how many they could take out without it falling down.

There's a leprechaun loose in the classroom...at least the children think so. A whole group of kindergarteners could be seen using magnifying glasses to try and spot the leprechaun. They even put together a leprechaun trap baited with pretend pizza (a leprechauns favourite food of course!).

A.J and S.M spent quite a bit of time at the art table today, making the letters in their names. Here they made a picture of a seed, a sprout and a flower. We'll have to check outside for some signs of Spring and see if we can find any sprouts!
This afternoon, our ECE student Amena showed the students a slideshow of all the learning they've done together about fish. Students were invited to write about their favourite part about the lessons they did together.

Here are some more amazing creations done at centre time. In case you couldn't tell, we're excited for spring and the return of flowers!
