We hope everyone has a Merry Christmas and a Happy New Year and look forward to seeing the kids back at school on Wednesday, January 4th.

St Vital Pyjama Day

PreK pyjama day was a lot of fun.

We played in our jammies, ate snack in our jammies, and our favorite part was watching a movie in our jammies.

Here's a short video of all the fun we had in our jammies.

St Vital Gingerbread Fun

We have been having a lot of fun reading different Gingerbread man stories and creating different gingerbread things in our classroom.

Through our activities we have been working on:

• Vocabulary (e.g. names of different spices, describing words)
• Recalling story events and retelling them
• Following directions (e.g. reading and following a recipe)
• Taking turns
• Expressing creativity (e.g. using our gingerbread playdough)
• Using our imagination (e.g. pretending to make cookies in the house center)

Here is a short movie of some things we have been doing.

Fun in the Gym

With the colder weather we have been spending more time going to the gym.

In the gym we not only have a chance to work on large muscle skills but we also learn to:

• listen to directions
• share a larger space
• move safely
• participate in new activities
• and of course have fun!

We recently spent time in the gym moving in different ways and trying some equipment.

In the gym we not only have a chance to work on large muscle skills but we also learn to:

• listen to directions
• share a larger space
• move safely
• participate in new activities
• learn new vocabulary (e.g. soaring, tiptoeing, slithering)
• and of course have fun!

We recently spent time in the gym moving like different animals.

Here are a few short videos demonstrating how we are learning to move.

1.  Jumping/Hopping like a frog.



2.  Slithering like a snake.



3.  Running like a monkey.  I think this was our loudest animal.



4.  Soaring like an eagle.  We really can be quiet.



5.  Tiptoeing like a mouse.



We hope you enjoy watching us learn to move in different ways.

We had lots of fun reading different fairy tales and trying many different things in our classroom about the stories.

Here is a short video we made describing the bears we made for the story
