Fun times at school


We continue to delve into winter and find out what animals are doing to survive this long season.  We hung a bird feeder in our preK playground hoping to attract chickadees and other birds who winter here.
In literacy we have been noticing letters that are in our names and starting to attach them to specific sounds.
In math we have been measuring objects with cubes and playing number games.
