Pajama and Stuffed Animal Day

We were all so comfortable in our pajamas today. Scholars introduced their stuffed animals to the class and explained why they were special. Our stuffed animals got to read and do projects with us.  What a nice celebration for positive behavior. Great job scholars!

Focus Kindergarten Potluck

Thank you for coming to our kindergarten potluck dinner hosted by the FOCUS group.
We had a great turn out.  It was nice to visit with families in each kindergarten class.

Fall Audubon Field Trip

We had a wonderful day at the Audubon.  We explored the forests and fields.
Students found many interesting signs of fall.  They especially enjoyed searching
for insects and other critters in the woods.  The giant slug and salamanders were
a big hit.  Thank you to all the parent volunteers that helped us.

Garden Adventures

On Friday we spent time with our fourth grade buddies tasting things in the school garden.
We learned how to make "weedos".  We made our wonderful treats with different lettuces, radishes, tomatoes and herbs.  We wrapped our weedos up just like a burrito.  Kindergarten students and their fourth grade buddies also tasted mint tea made with mint from the garden.  Everyone loved the tea!  A big thank you to Heidi Chapman-Renaud for helping us learn more about the garden.  We loved using our sense of taste to explore our school garden.  Science never tasted so good!

                                                                       

Gingerbread Cookie Hunt

We went to the cafeteria to get our gingerbread cookies on Friday and our cookies were missing.  We searched throughout the school and asked everyone if they had seen our cookies.  Finally, Mr. Berry found our cookies and brought them back to us.  What an adventure!  By the way, our cookies tasted delicious.

 

 

 

 

 

Double Recess Day

Our entire school earned Double Recess Day on Friday.  It was a celebration of our positive behavior.  Kindergarten scholars were thrilled to spend extra time outside playing with friends.

 

 

 

Fourth Grade Buddies

Over the last few years kindergarten classes have "buddied up" with fourth grade classes in our school.  The buddy classes get together throughout the year for a variety of activities.  Classes may hike, play games, read, work on projects together, etc.  This gives younger and older scholars a chance to build relationships and work together.  It is a wonderful learning opportunity for everyone.  We are excited to be buddies with Ms. Senning's fourth grade class this year.  This past week we went for a walk and explored the school garden together.  We enjoyed all the fragrant smells of the garden.  Our classes even attended an assembly together to review assembly rules.  We look forward to getting together with our buddies again.
