Our Kindergartners are making discoveries, building math and literacy knowledge, and learning to collaborate and problem solve during purposeful play each week! ❤️
Our Kindergarteners are practicing being social detectives and following the group plan! Every week Mrs. Pesevento joins each of our Kindergarten classrooms to read us a story from the Social Thinking Series! These lessons help us to become even better friends and partners at school! ❤️
Our Kindergarteners are “smartie spellers”! We’re having fun using our October vocabulary words, highlighting sight words, and building stamina for writing independent during Writer’s Workshop! ✏️
