Barnet Marine Park

It was a beautiful day at Barnet Marine Park and all the kids had so much fun!  In the classroom, we have been learning about a few ocean animals (sea star, jellyfish, shark, orca whale), so this field trip was a great opportunity for them to explore more about marine life in our local environment.  What a great experience to see so many sea stars (starfish) under the dock and flipping rocks to look for crabs!

Thank you to all parents who volunteered to drive and supervise students, and families who came to join us!  We hope you all had a great time at the beach!

Community

 

Our little city planners and builders have been learning about important community helpers and services that make up a community.  We took the information we learned and built five different communities. Each group brainstormed what their community needed, collected materials, built it and then they named their community (Ultimate Sand City, Racing Town, Towerson Town, Sugar Dot City, Sparkling Sprinkle Neighborhood Town). They all put in a lot of effort into building their town/city together.  Keep up the great teamwork, Division 12!

 

Easter Fun

 

Division 12 had a busy day decorating eggs with natural materials and gems and building spring pictures with loose parts! We also had an Easter Egg Hunt organized by the PAC.  It was definitely a fun filled day! Hope everyone had a great Easter long weekend!

Forest Animal Habitats

 

Our class ended our Winter theme unit by building homes for some of our forest animals.  Each group chose their animal(s), gathered materials and then built the home together.  We were so impressed with how everyone worked collaboratively and helped each other out! Great teamwork, Division 12!

Kindness

Last week was an exciting week! We moved into our new classroom and we are loving our new learning and playing space.  It was also kindness week! To show our friends how much we appreciate them, we brainstormed kind words to describe our friends.  We also drew a portrait of our friends.  Look at all the details and effort we put in to show our friends how much we like them!

Story Workshop

Our class has been busy having fun building stories!  Story workshop allows learners to explore, create and connect their ideas through play.  We have been using loose parts, paint, playdough and blocks to help us develop our ideas.  Our class is learning to include characters, different settings, problems and solutions in our stories.  We are all becoming great storytellers and we cannot wait to share our stories with you!
