Based on the interest of our learners, we decided to launch a Dinosaur Inquiry. Our Dinosaur World Dramatic Play centre has brought us so much joy! 🦖🦕 #dinosaurinquiry #rvsed Windsong Heights RVS

Our Kinders have been telling some very imaginative oral stories through story play. #rvsed #kindergarten Windsong Heights RVS

It’s amazing to see student engagement increase when the learning is connected to their interests. #rvsed Windsong Heights RVS #kindergarten #playbasedlearning

A favourite in our class was printing letters in sand using the tail of a dinosaur. Super simple, but such a hit! #rvsed Windsong Heights RVS #kindergarten

The Great Measurement Challenge ✨ In pairs, Ss were given 1 min. to build a tower. They used non-standard measurement to measure & record the height or their tower. They used 5 different materials to build 5 towers. Once done, they compared the heights of their towers. #rvsed

🌸Easter Egg Patterns 🌸 We’ve been use loose parts to decorate eggs with patterns. #kindergarten #playfulnumeracy #rvsed Windsong Heights RVS

We love The Great Eggscape! After reading the book, we were inspired to create our own egg friends. Each one is unique and has its own little personality; just like their creators. Windsong Heights RVS #Kindergarten #rvsed

We’ve been putting our phonics skills to work by building cvc words. #rvsed #Kindergarten #earlyliteracy Windsong Heights RVS

We’ve been using magnetic letters to help us identify the beginning, middle, and final sounds that we hear in the animal words. Windsong Heights RVS #rvsed #Kindergarten #earlyliteracy #playfulliteracy

Letter Construction 🧡 We’ve been using big lines, little lines, big curves, and little curves to form letters in our Handwriting Without Tears program. This centre has been a fun and hands-on extension of our printing program. #rvsed #kindergarten Windsong Heights RVS

Can you make the EARTH? 🌍 It was Earth Day on the weekend, so we took some time to reflect on our precious earth and the ways that we can protect it. Students were invited to use a variety of loose parts and shapes to create the earth. #rvsed #kindergarten Windsong Heights RVS

There are so many benefits to block play. I loved watching this little crew collaborate, communicate, problem solve, compliment one another, and encourage each other. It’s a great way for children to build self esteem and hand-eye coordination. #rvsed Windsong Heights RVS #kinder

Our Kindness Ninjas recently collaborated w/ Spark & Bloom Co, a local female owned business, to create a Kindness Candle. Our learners voted on their favourite scent, botanicals, designed the label, & came up with positive affirmations for the lid. #rvsed Windsong Heights RVS

Our Kindness Ninjas are on a mission to help make miracles happen for other children. ❤️Our co-created Kindness candles are up on the Spark and Bloom website. $10 from each sale will be donated to the Alberta Children’s Hospital. Thank you! #rvsed sparkandbloomco.com/collections/82…

Thank you for the surprise! #kindsnessninjas ⁦JoysofKinder⁩ you made my day. Such great buddies!

Our Kinders have been creating Spring Flowers out of loose parts. After creating two flowers, they are encouraged to use our standard and non-standard measuring tools to measure and compare their flowers. #rvsed Windsong Heights RVS

Our incredible principal Penny Beaudry is retiring & our Kindness Ninjas wanted to give her a special send off. We crowned her as the Queen of Windsong Heights, co-created an art piece with our fingerprints, & made a book filled with retirement suggestions. We’ll miss her! #rvsed
