Playschool's first letter of the year is Ll

On Tuesday we introduced our letter, Ll. During circle we discussed and shared pictures and words that started with Ll. One of our words was "line". Playschool had many opportunities to line-up throughout the day. Our friends during play time explored, experimented and practiced making lines with blocks and beads. Both were student initiated activities!

I'm in awe when Playschool children demonstrate what they have learned through play!

Playschool's Library

Playschool participates in the TD Canadian Children's Book Week (Nov 15 to 21). Our letter of the week is "Bb" for books. During the month of November we are learning about people in our community and their jobs. Our local librarian has visited our school to talk about her job and shared books with us during her story time circle.

Welcome to Playschool's dramatic play library. Eliza and Gabriela are role playing librarians.


Many children come to our library to make a book selection.
