November was a busy month with assessment and conferences. Thank you for taking the time to talk to me about your child's progress. I am so proud of all of my students. Let us take this opportunity to celebrate each child's effort, progress, and success.
We spent November learning all about our bodies. Students painted life-size self-portraits with their Buddies. They did a fantastic job!

We also introduced a new center at the discovery table. To complement our study of the 5 senses, I put out different sensory bins: musical instruments, feeling jars (for students to identify blindfolded), smelling jars (students guessed cinnamon and peppermint quickly, but others were trickier), and magnifying glasses and colour-mixing glasses. We also added a new listening game to circle time: students close their eyes and have to identify from where in the room someone is ringing a bell.
How fitting with our study of taste that one of our new sounds this month was M for manger - the students all say mmm, mmm, mmm as they rub their tummies. Look at all the French words we were able to name with the sound m!
We finished off our unit on healthy eating with a collaborative book on what we like to eat. Students each wrote and drew what they like to eat on their plate. We also had fun playing food Bingo.
