The Kindergarten class has been inside for most of the week due to the cold weather. We have still enjoyed activities in the room. We love to play with the legos. We make “houses” and “vehicles” - its fun to play and imagine with them. This week we've also had some new games on the computer and we have enjoyed spending some time working with them.

Our valentine bags are up and ready. All different kinds of valentines have been made and delivered to our classmates' bags. We are looking forward to opening all of our valentines on Valentine's Day.

February is Dental Health month. Wiggly Tooth told us how to keep our teeth strong and healthy. We especially liked the story Andrew's Loose Tooth by Robert Munsch!

During Jesus time we
talked about Zacchaeus.
Our Bible verse for the
week was 1 John 4:11.
“Since God so loved us,
we … love one another.”

Blessings to you all – have a great week.

The Kindergarten class read the book Stone Soup. We decided that it would be fun to make some stone soup ourselves. Mrs. Brase brought the stone. Each kindergartener was able to add something more to the soup. We added potatoes, purple cabbage, corn, broccoli, cauliflower, carrots, peas, and meat. Each addition made the soup even better. We shared our soup with the rest of the classes.

This week we have been talking about hibernating animals. We especially talked about the groundhog. On Groundhog's Day, we were hoping that the groundhog did not see his shadow. It would be nice if spring could come early.

In Math, we are starting “counting on” and doing addition. We practiced adding up to twelve. We also put the numbers in order from 0 to 20.

Our Jesus time story was about when the little children were brought to Jesus and he blessed them. Each child was and is special to Jesus. Jesus welcomes all children to Himself, offering them forgiveness, love, and blessing.
