Franklin Park Zoo trip!

On Thursday, May 23rd we went to the Franklin Park Zoo with our 4th grade partners. We had a GREAT time! This trip was a a perfect way to end our animal research project. The students were able to identify animals and tell how they knew the animals were living. The groups worked together to complete a scavenger hunt and then we picnicked all together! On June 6th we will be having our animal project viewing party.

Animal Project Viewing Party

On Thursday, June 6th we had our animal project viewing party with our 4th grade partners. The students did a great job on this major research project and to celebrate together and applaud each others efforts was really a worthwhile experience! Great job kindergartners and 4th graders. Below are our Animal Videos. We hope you have time to check them out!

Thank You Miss Nash & Butterfly Release!

We had a busy week in Room 101! Friday was our busiest day. We said goodbye to our senior intern Miss Nash. We had a little time to PLAY in kindergarten. The blocks, sandbox, math blocks and the sand box were all open during choice time.  We also released eight butterflies. We were hoping the rain would stop, but we stood under the awning and said goodbye to the butterflies before dismissing for the day.

Community Helpers

For the past couple weeks we have been learning about Community Helpers. We have been reading many books, and watching short videos and we have been lucky to have three of our parents come in and talk about their community helper jobs. Thank you to Mrs. Jarvis, Mrs. McElroy and Mrs. Interess. We learned about the Librarian, Dental Hygienist and Social Worker jobs first hand from these experts.
