Guest Reader on Friday

Thank you Mr. Shabrin for reading to us:
What Do Snowman Do At Night? by Caralyn Buehner

Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

We have been reading and discussing the life of Martin Luther King, Jr. 

Our Scholastic News was also about him. 

We watched and listened to a clip of Dr. King giving his "I Have A Dream" speech. 

The children wrote dreams of their own. 

These are now displayed in our kindergarten hallway for all to read and enjoy.

Ask your child to read to you their dream.

  

                              

Winter Recess Fun!

Thank you very much for sending in the

A pair of dry shoes so the boots can stay 

in their lockers is so helpful, THANKS!
