Students in Miss Porter's preschool are exploring and learning exciting classroom materials the first few weeks of school! They have worked with bingo stampers, water colors, and glue sticks so far! Some of their favorite centers that have been introduced are the sensory table (filled with sand and toy people), play-doh and puzzles!

Mrs. Wilken's kindergarten class went on a "camping trip" after filling up our "warm fuzzy" bucket. Everyone brought their favorite stuffy and books to read in their tents. We went on a word hunt around the school with our flashlights to find words we know. We also wrote about our favorite part of camping and told why. Some children like the fire. Some children like sleeping in tents. But most of the children said they liked the s'mores the best! We can't wait to fill another warm fuzzy bucket!!!
Ms. Stone's second grade class had a blast during ACES Day! We warmed up with Ms. K and did the Cha Cha Slide before going for a walk. It was fun to be outside exercising with everyone at Kelly Lane!

Miss Simonetti's first grade class is hard at work writing book reviews in our current opinion unit! We are learning how to persuade our reader through stating our opinion, giving a sneak peek of our chosen book, adding supporting details and using sparkly descriptive words.
When supporting students we use fidget toys to improve learning as they allow the brain to filter out extra sensory information, helping students to actively listen, pay attention and focus on the task. Social Emotional books help students learn coping strategies, by helping them to develop empathy and let them know that others can experience the same emotions they do.
Mrs. Diemer's second grade class is running an experiment to test the durability of different kinds of paper. How many cubes can each paper hold when it is wet and dry?
