Wow, Thursday already and another chilly day. You have been doing a great job Kinders, keep it up the good work with todays activities.

Borrow-A-Book- Read one of your books today. Point to each word as you read,look at the pictures for cues,sound out any unknown words, look for sight words you know.

Writing-For todays writing ,can you follow the pattern in your borrow-a-book and write a new page for your book? Draw a detailed picture. Start your sentence, the same way the other sentences begin in your book. Use your sight words and sound out unknown words. I can't wait to see what you come up with.

Math- Count forwards and backwards 0-10 and 10-0. Review your number facts of 6 by playing this card game, Magic 6's.Use only cards 1-6. Turn all cards face down. Players take turns turning over 2 cards, if the cards total 6,(1 and 5,2 and 4,3 and 3) the player keeps the cards, if the cards don't make 6, turn the cards face down again. The next player takes a turn. If one of the two cards you turn over is a 6, they yell Magic 6, keep that card and choose another card to try and match with the one you have in your hand.Once all the cards have been turned over the player with the most pairs and 6's win. On a piece of paper print your number pairs for 6, ex 1 and 5 is 6, 0 and 6 is 6.Have fun!!

Home Learning Packet- Complete the sight word 'like" page today. Trace, print, colour, fill in the blanks, circle the word and build the word. On the back of your page use the word like in a sentence.

"No Two Snowflakes" by, Sheree Fitch. Listen to this read aloud of the story https://youtu.be/ftMVN7uHvPc.  Yesterdays read aloud was more of a book and talk review, and didnt actually read the whole story.Sorry about that, I am sure you will enjoy this story.

Art-Continue to work on your snowflake projects.Watch this video that explains how snowflakes are formed.https://youtu.be/-M48RfaWcWA?t=1. Remember to send a picture of your special snowflake. 

Get up and move- be sure to take breaks throughout the day to stretch and move your body. Do your count to 100 exercises, dance, count the steps you take from the kitchen to the living room, or to your bedroom, basement etc. If you can go outside and get some fresh air, go for a wolk around your home,can you see, hear, smell or touch anything unique, like ice crystals on the trees or in the snow.

Have a fantastic Thursday everyone. Keep up the great work Kinders!! Take care! Smiles and Hugs!! You are missed!

Math- Count from 0-10 and 10-0.As you count hop forward and hopbackwards when you count backwards. We are working on the number 6. Listen to the Jack Hartman song, "I can say my number pairs 6", https://youtu.be/PIMK8bHoH68?t=3. Now,show what you learned. Using the sheet attached,(build a snowman 6) or use any paper from home. Roll a dice print the number you rolled in the first snowman's first snowball. How many more do you need to make 6? Print that number in the snowman's second snowball.Roll the dice until you have all the number pairs for 6. 

Sight Words- Continue to review your sight words today. Play the Brrr, or  "Read for Speed" sight word gsme.

Outdoor Fun-It is suppose to snow today and tomorrow ,so if it warms up and you are outside playing, see if you can catch some snowflakes on your mittens. It's neat to look at snowflakes on a coloured piece of paper.Look closely, you may be able to count how many sides a snowflake has.Here is a hint,it's the number we were making today.Did you know that no two snaowfakes are alike?Each snowflake is unique, just like you!  Can you catch snowflakes on your tongue?Have fum! Check out this book by Sheree Fitch, "No Two Snowflakes". Sheree is one of my favourite authors, she lives in Nova Scotia. Sheree has written a lot of books and poems. We were very lucky at Nelson Rural when Sheree came to our school for a visit.It was awesome! I hope you enjoy her book! https://youtu.be/dDzo_IHcqHs?t=1

Art- Now that you have explored snowflakes, design your own snowflake.Remember, no 2 snowflakes are alike, so be creative, use any material you have at home. paint, crayons yarn, styrofoam, sticks etc.Whenever you get your project complete,please be sure to send me a picture of your special snowflake. I will make one too, and we can display them on our class page. 

Enjoy your Wednesday, Kinders!! Reach out if I can help in anyway. Take care!Smiles and Hugs!! I sure do miss you!
