This afternoon was a bit of a blur, but we got our letter work in and silly hats done.

 

We also sang 5 Little Speckled Frogs as we coloured.

Attention Team K4 families!

 

This week is the last Friday of the month which means it is half a day for students.

 

Students will be dismissed at 11:45am promptly.

Today's letter of the day was the letter Ee, Ellie Elephant.

 

With each day, the children are going so well as be practice our alphabets daily.  We review a few Zoo-phonics cards which teaches us the letter sound using fun movements and visual animal cards, and then we go over the...

Good evening Team K4,

 

I believe I have reached out to many of you today, but thought I'd post a general reminder for our group.  Please make sure you send a full back-up set of clothes to school for your child, as well as, include a few extra pair of socks if you can.  It is always...

It's only Tuesday and we've done A LOT!  You've probably noticed we've had some messy days because in K4, we say YES to the MESS!  

 

Engaging in messy and sensory play gives us lots of opportunities to practice the many pre-writing skills necessary to make us not just great writers, but confident ones.  So we pinch, we squeeze, we tap, we pull, we stetch, and we climb, exercising all our muscles from our head to our feet.

 

Amazing job kiddos.

Today's letter of the day is "Dd" - Deedee Deer goes . . . Da, Da, Da.  Learning our alphabets is how we are going to learn to read and write.  Today Abby also practiced her writing on the white board - great job kiddo.  We also learned today that we love disco music, it got us all dancing.

Good morning Team K4 families,

 

Moving forward families can find updates on our classroom, including fun activities, photos, videos, and formation on important dates, all here on the school website.

 

You can still message me through messenger, however, please call the front office and leave a message with Mrs. Lana to ensure I get any last minute changes on your kiddos day.  Cell service is not always reliable and I may not receive your notification until much later.

 

Thank you and be sure to check back frequently,

 

Mrs. Sweezey

Any chance we can whip up a quick potion, get a little messy, and wonder out loud - we gonna! 

In this short clip, Team K4 completed their first science experiement.  I have done this experiment many times from previous Team K4s and things always worked out perfectly.  The experiment was to make your own lava lamp using, water, oil, food colouring, and pieces of alka seltzer tabs.  I followed the instructions to a tee and for some reason, things didn't go as planned.  Some students lamps worked, a couple didn't.  But we didn't let this little hiccup discourage us too much and we forged on because science doesn't advance without a few failures a long the way.  We (I, Mrs. Sweezey) learn from our mistakes and make the most out of it if we can and we certainly did.

Well done Team K4!

Last Friday was a particularly busy day and the children seemed a little restless.  Before things got too out of hand, I decided it would be a perfect time to complete a science experiment. 

Science is a great way to have fun and sneak in some learning and this day we made a lava lamp using oil, water, food colouring, and alka seltzer tabs.  Science allows the students to practice their listening skills, wonder a loud, and get excited about something new.  The response in the room to this simple experiment was amazing.  The children were excited and did so well listening, following instructions, and being safe.

Great job Team K4 <3
