The class did a great job signing the Pledge of Allegiance on Thursday and we had a fun trip to the kidZone. Thank you so much to our parent drivers! We are working on including others during play time and I was pleased to see some great interactions among students on our trip. The students made posters for reading week as part of our writing for a purpose unit and you will see them hanging up around school.
