Congratulations to the K class for doing a super job with singing and signing the abc's and reciting our 5 Little Pumpkins poem for the whole school!
We had a wonderful trip to the outdoor classroom this week and spent time observing rocks, using our 5 senses to experience the outdoors and practiced ways to make 8 using rocks. Thanks to Mr. Jeff for getting us all the way there! Pics are attached to the parent square email.
This week we will learn about bats and will use the pumpkins that students bring in for lots of cool Math and Science exploration. If you can't send in a pumpkin- no problem!
