French- Learning about Spiders and Witches

Halloween is literally just around the corner, we spent the week learning about spiders and witches in French! We learned that witches (sorcières) in French starts with the letter S, and tried sounding out the words. We also learned that witches are magical beings that has special powers! And some also fly on a broomstick! We also learned that spiders (araignées) starts with the letter A and they are small animals with eight legs! That sure is a lot of legs to walk on! We love learning new words every week in French and can't wait to see what's in store for next week! Great job, everyone!

Our low class size and student: teacher ratio allows your child to be taught at their own academic level and their learning to be tailored to their own strengths and challenges. By giving your child the opportunity to be part of this journey with us they are being immersed in an all encompassing curriculum that intertwines the academic and artistic learning that is relevant to real world success. This curriculum caters for all learners using Gardner’s Multiple Intelligences as well as Blooms Taxonomy to give your child the best learning outcomes. Themes are carried throughout the academic curriculum as well as the artistic curriculum to reinforce concepts and offer all types of learners to interpret and extend.

At Little Feet Little Faces your child is not just another face in the classroom. They are part of our team where every staff member knows their name and has taken the time to personally bond with your child and ensure a secure and trusting attachment has been forged. As a result of this your child comes to preschool happy and excited every day as they know they are safe and the staff love them. Our 3 year plan ensures that your child will receive a solid and comprehensive foundation of emergent and early literacy and mathematical concepts and skills allowing them to transition easily into some of Toronto’s most elite private elementary schools.
