Kindie Korner Adventures

Today we talked again about how we can help save our earth and the polar bears  and we were gifted with the most amazing donation.  Each child will be coming home today with a tree of their very own to plant.  These trees were generously donated to us by Mr. Dennis Cayton of Brookdale Treeland Nurseries in Rosedale.  Thank you Mr. Dennis!  Ask your child today how planting trees helps stop global warming!

We also have the opportunity to adopt a polar bear through Polar Bears International!  If each student brings in a toonie we will have enough to adopt our very own polar bear.  It won’t be coming to live here with us, but we will get a photo of it and a certificate acknowledging our adoption.  I would like to adopt the polar bear by next Friday, February 9th.  Please send your child’s toonie before then!

I can’t believe it!  We have almost been in school for 100 days!  Where is the year going?!

We are going to celebrate our 100 days in school all day on FEBRUARY 16.

One of the ways we are going to celebrate is by dressing up as if we were 100.  Reaching the age of 100 is something to be celebrated!  Each child is welcome to come to school on 100 day dressed like they think they will look when they are 100.  No school uniforms required that day unless your child chooses not to dress up.

Also, each child is being given the task of creating, with some parental help I am sure, a 100 day project.  Here are the guidelines for the project:

100 day project

-must include 100 of a certain object (legos, cheerios, buttons etc).

-the 100 items must be used to create something (100 lego pieces could be used to build something, cheerios could be glued into flower shapes, buttons could be strung into a necklace…)

Projects need to be brought to school on February 16. Each child will be able to present their project and explain to the class what they have made and how they made it.

Also, we will be making 100 Day Trail Mix together.  I need the following snacks brought in for our 100 day celebration.  I will have a sign up sheet outside the classroom  for you, or you can email me and let me know what you can bring and I will sign your name for you.

Teddy grahams or gummy bears

Cheerios

Mini marshmallows

Pretzels

Goldfish crackers

m & m’s

Popcorn

Chocolate Chips

Coco Puffs, Reese Puffs cereal or some other sphere shaped cereal (2 parents for this please)
