Happy Easter!  We celebrated today in Kindergarten by joining Room 8 in a sight word Easter egg hunt!  Each group of students was tasked with finding 20 Easter eggs, reading and writing the words on a class list.  What a fun way to practice sight words!  We also watched the first and second grades as they performed the Passion Play.  How talented they are!


 It was also very fun meeting all the Special People on Wednesday!  Thank you SO much to everyone who came in, all the students enjoyed your visit very much. 
We started our butterfly unit on Monday.  Together with Room 8 we broke into groups and read books about insects and butterflies.  We have been focusing this week on vocabulary and the needs of butterflies versus humans.  We are looking for baby food jars for an experiment if that is something that you can send in.
