Snow Much Fun! ❄️🧣

Posted February 14, 2023

Since the winter weather finally arrived we have been having lots of wintery fun.  We have been “ice fishing” at the dramatic play centre for letters and numbers, reading and writing about what animals do in the winter, sledding, shovelling snow and building lots of snow forts outside. We used watercolour paint to make patterns […]

The Mitten 🧤

Posted January 26, 2023

We read a traditional tale, The Mitten, by Jan Brett. It is a story about a little boy who lost his mitten in the snow. Different animals find their way into the mitten to seek warmth and shelter. The mitten becomes stretched out and cramped for space. We have created animal puppets, sewed our own paper […]

Winter Learning ❄️🐻🐿

Posted January 19, 2023

We learned that animals migrate, hibernate or adapt when winter arrives.  We have completed booklets, games, activities and even art about this. It’s really hard for kindergartens to allow their art to be hung in the classroom for everyone to enjoy when they REALLY want to take them home right away.  

Fall Changes

Posted October 27, 2021

We have been learning about changes that are happening in fall.  There are changes in the plant and animal world and people make changes, too!  Students have observed that the leaves are changing colours, the weather is getting colder and that our clothing is warmer. In our classroom, we have created a number of art […]

Kindergarten…Yours to Discover!

Students designed their own license plate colouring it the same as plates that we see on Ontario cars.

Rainbow Art

Posted September 27, 2021

Everyone worked together to create this beautiful torn paper rainbow. We used water colours to paint our own rainbows.  We have talked about rainbow order (ROYGBIV) and what the colour words say. Another art project was to use 1/2 a paper plate and water colours to recreate some rainbows. What wonderful artists we have in […]

Self Portraits

Posted September 17, 2021

Students were invited to create a self portrait at our Art Centre.  We used mirrors to see ourselves and draw/colour our many wonderful features. It was really hard for some of our friends to let them hang on our bulletin board! We are so proud of our work we want to take everything home right […]

Melting Snowmen

Posted December 14, 2020

Mrs. Thomson shared a really neat activity with us! We read the story Sneezy the Snowman written by Maureen Wright. You can listen to it again by clicking on this link: https://video.link/w/oM2Ab Students then came up with their own ideas about how a snowman could melt.  We have very creative students in Room 22! We […]

Fall Art in Room 22

Posted October 16, 2020

We have been learning about fall colours: red, orange, yellow and brown. We have been using these fall colours, leaf shapes and natural materials to create beautiful fall art. There are a lot of creative artists in Room 22!

Nursery Rhymes

Posted February 5, 2018

We are learning about Nursery Rhymes as many children do not know them. Students are enjoying saying the poems, acting out the stories and creating art to illustrate these stories. Below you will see Jack and Jill’s pails and grandfather clocks from Hickory Dickory Dock. Ask your child to recite the poems for you at […]
