Five months in…….


Mid way through…….


The first year trial of full time kindergarten in our division is half over.


The program is a go for next year and registration is open. ✍️


My thoughts……

…. I am thrilled. 😊😊


Appreciating so many things about this new gig. 💗💗


⏳The time piece alone has been incredible. Feels like we are fitting in all of the of the things.! 🤔🤔


💙The continuity and consistency of seeing these little people every day has been good for all of us. ☺️


These first few months have held the hours of a part time program. Sort of feels like we are in bonus time now!!! 😎


So….Cheers to full time kindergarten. Super excited it is on for another year. 🥂


What is your favourite thing about full time kindergarten?

Blending sounds…. an important foundational skill. 🧨


🔥It ensures early readers focus on all the sounds in a word not just the first one or two.


🔥Effective decoding is a result of smooth sound blending.


🔥Cognitive scientists have shown that accurate decoding is a hallmark of skilled reading.


🔥This game is packed with opportunities to develop skills.


Will you try this one?💜💜

The challenge….

Sort some buttons in an interesting way.

The result…..

A visual journal page showcasing learning for numeracy and literacy outcomes.


Visual journals allow learners to return to a page several times to add new pieces.


Building pages part by part allows quality and workmanship to be priorities.




Do you use visual journals in your classroom?

💜 Each day brings new opportunities to celebrate the exploration of sounds, letters and words.


Tomorrow, while sitting at the writing table, this child will remember how I responded to her writing today. 💜
