Our Visit to 1st Grade!


We visited Mrs.Smith's 1st Grade class this week! It was SO cool to see the insides of real desks and lockers! Our 1st grade buddies gave very good tours!
Mrs.Smith read us a story and we got our questions about 1st grade answered!
Only 14 more days left of kindergarten!!! (That's if Mrs.Kapsner can bear to let us go!)





















































Science: Living Things

In addition to observing goldfish and tadpoles, kindergartners planted and observed the following plants:
  • sunflowers
  • zinnias
  • lettuce
  • marigolds
  • summer squash
  • basil and
  • pumpkins


Today they will go home. Remember plants need water, light, air, space and soil to thrive!













































Mmmm! Mmmmm! Cupcakes!

Aidan brought in Minnesota Twins cupcakes to celebrate his birthday. Can you guess what color the frosting was? Take a look and you'll see:)
