With Kindergarten registration opening soon, now is a great time to take a look at what some of our current KDG students are experiencing. Mrs. O’Halloran and Ms. Jones’ classes had a farm day to celebrate the end of their unit. Activities included a scavenger hunt, farmers' market, sensory bins, & more. Our Kindergarten "farmers" harvested carrots to make consonant-vowel-consonant words, matched numbers to farm animals, & sorted upper & lowercase letters. #MVNation #GrowingTogether
