Kindergarten
The kindergarten classes can hardly believe that it is May already. We enjoyed watching chicks hatch and then were amazed at how quickly their feathers began to come in. They are now home in their chicken coop. We have planted seeds and are anxiously waiting for the little seeds to germinate. Spring offers the opportunity to learn about nature. We are discovering information about animals and especially baby animals.
We had an amazing Easter egg hunt at Mrs. Pribbeno's home. We felt like the children at the White House in Washington, DC who are invited to the First Lady Mrs. Obama's egg roll. Her yard was perfect for the hunt, games, and we even had a real Easter bunny to help us celebrate the occasion.
We are looking forward to our spring Beach Day field trip to Cox's Ponds. We are hoping for great weather and a wonderful day of outdoor education.
Mrs. Thompson, Mrs. Krutsinger, and Mrs. Cupp have truly enjoyed this year's kindergarten class.
