Snails, Turtles, and Bears, Oh My

We started this week with Remembrance Day, where the kids learned more about peace.  Please ask your child to sing the song for you that we prepared for our Kindergarten ceremony.  We learned about animals that hibernate and are demonstrating this learning through the dramatic play area and our sensory bin.  We had a visit from our Health Nurse Sarah, who taught us how to wash our hands properly and gave us helpful tips to stay healthy.  We completed another experiment with gummy bears and are learning more about observing, which coincides with our in Social Thinking goal in which we are working on Thinking with our Eyes.

Here is a picture of our experiment. Please ask your child to tell you all about it!

On Tuesday, we plan on taking a short walk on our local nature trail in hopes that we can see some of the animals we are learning about.
