Music Makers

This week, your child will be learning all about music. They will have the opportunity to see live musicians (teachers-of-the-week) and learn about the different instruments that they play. They will also have the opportunity to make and play instruments of their own. The children will be learning the beat of music through these activities.

The game shown (Monkey's Music Match) is based on the children's book Monkey's Marching Band by Michaela Muntean and Nicole Rubel. Your child will learn about the cymbals, the trumpet, the piccolo, the tuba, the drum and the xylophone. This game uses children's fine motor skills as well as their recognition skills. We hope they enjoy putting together their own marching band.

Our 4 Seasons

Please note this week playschool will run on Tuesday Nov. 4, Thursday Nov. 6 and Friday Nov. 7. This is due to a P.D. day on Monday and Gr. 9 take your children to work day on Wednesday. Thank-you for your understanding.

This week your children will be learning all about our seasons (Fall, Winter, Spring and Summer). The teachers-of-the-week have lots of fun games, songs, fingerplays and crafts planned for the children. The game shown (Fletcher's favourite fall tree) helps your child develop their fine motor skills, colour recognition as well as numeracy skills.
