Kindergarten is experiencing an incredible journey learning all about thankfulness!
This week our little terriers have been beaming with excitement while writing throughout the room, collaborating on a classroom book, unleashing their creativity with paint-by-number art, and crafting thankful turkeys to share with their loved ones. In the words of one of our tiniest learners, “Best centers ever!!” We are truly thankful for each and every one of our students!
Tomorrow we’ll be wearing purple to honor our Purple Pandas winning the House Cup!
There is also a menu change. Lunch will be a ham sandwich, chips, yogurt, cheese stick, and fruit.
Don't forget! Thursday is Picture Day!! All students will have their photos taken for the yearbook. 💜🩵
