Halloween Fun!

Covid could not compete with the fun time had last Friday. A BIG shout out to all the parents and staff who helped make the greatest Halloween party ever!

Our morning began with Pumpkin Math and Science. Counting, weighing, and estimating really got our brains to thinking.

After that, we all loaded up on an enormous tractor (thank you Hank Dean) for a fun hayride.

Kudos to the Middle School students for providing our boys and girls with pumpkins, treat bags, and special books they had written for each child.

Finally, we ended up at the Kindergarten playground to participate in Halloween games. Our party concluded with a delicious lunch from Chick-fil-A. Again, thank you to all our wonderful parents for your help.

After visiting with Sgt. Dawson DeTombe about Toys for Tots we delivered boxes to the other buildings.

Donuts for Dad/Special Friends, Domino Number Match, and Stem Challenge!

Donuts for Dad/Special Friends was a little different, but nothing can keep us from doing what we love. Enjoy the video.

Each child was given paper dominos. They had to touch and count the dots and match it to the corresponding number. Activities like this help with number concepts and operations. Children's understanding of counting, number symbols, and number operations are fundamental to their success with more complex mathematics.

Our focus question this week was how do roads help us in our everyday lives? We have talked about bridges and how they are built over water to help you continue getting to where you are going. I put down blue paper to resemble water. After putting them in groups they had to decide what materials they were going to use. Together they worked to construct a bridge over the water. Giving children a specific activity to do with a classmate helps them practice cooperation skills. Taking turns during a creative activity helps children share responsibility and implement the ideas of others. A child who typically leads will learn how to let others make decisions, and a child who hesitates to voice an opinion will have an equal share in the development of the project.
