September was a busy and exciting month in Kindergarten as we settled into our new routines and quickly formed many new friendships.
We practiced writing our names in a variety of creative ways, including using loose parts, stamps, Sharpies, paint, and playdough.
We learned about our local hero, Terry Fox, and proudly participated in Parkcrest’s annual Terry Fox Run. To celebrate his courage and determination, we drew pictures of ourselves running alongside Terry.
As part of our learning about Truth and Reconciliation, we discussed how Indigenous children were unfairly treated in the past. We read I Hope by Indigenous author Monique Gray Smith and shared our ideas about what helps us feel safe, welcomed, and happy at school.
