Math Centres

Today we had math centres for the first time and it was a big hit in Kindergarten! 

The students were very ecstatic about new, halloween centres. 

Today we had four centres:
1. Meet with the teacher 
Today we learned how to sort. Sorting means putting things into groups based on similar attributes. We sorted objects into groups of colour or shapes - check out seesaw to see your child's sorting. 

2. Spin Centre
At this centre students spun a spinner and had to put that many spiders on a ten frame. The first one to get to 10 wins and then you start over. 

3. Dice Centre
Students rolled one die and had to cover that number with a bingo chip. 

4. Marker Centre
At this centre students counted and coloured the correct number.

Leaf Man

Today we read Leaf Man by Lois Elhert. 

This is a great book about leaf imagination. The Leaf Man is blown accross the country where he comes across leaf trees, leaf chickens, leaf fish, leaf turtles, leaf mice, a leaf garden, and other leaf representations. 



The Kinders were able to create their own artistic leaf representation. Some made boats, turtles, trees, and more!
