We have been learning about colours through out the year and did a review of primary and secondary colours by mixing colours and observing white carnations change colours 

their colour. Reviewing how plants absorb waterand make food (photosynthesis).

                                              Making a surprise for our loving moms

                        We observed how colour travelled through the stem to the petals

                                                       Ask me about it......

                  We observe how some flowers absorb water differently....

            Look at the daisy.... Both flowers were put in the jar together and

                     the daisy is taking longer to absorb the purple colour...

                                    To All the Mo'ms :)

                                                

Thank you Kindergarten, Mr. Beattie's class for inviting us to watch worms wiggling in your compost. It was amazing to see how worms move using their rings/segments.

Everyday in Kindergarten, when students eat their snack and lunch, they save banana and orange peelings, the apple cores and other compostable materials. At the end of the day, they pack up the container and deposit it into a compost bin.

Then you can use a garden rake to mix the 

peelings with the leaves.

Mr. Beattie used the doc camera 

to view a magnification of the

compost. 

Please ask your child to describe

what they saw in the compost? 

                                Ask me what Mr. Beattie was explaining about his compost?

                                                       Mr. Beattie opening is compost bin.

                                    Ask me to point to the worm and how a worm moves?

                                    Observing the plants, we were excited to see some of them 

                                                  sprouting stems and leaves
