Kindergarten

May 2-6

This week, the children continued learning about different ways they can take care of the Earth! They did a great job brainstorming how they can make the Earth happy and recognized ways people can hurt the Earth. In class, the children have eagerly been practicing how to reduce, reuse, and recycle and are showing a strong commitment to make every day Earth Day!
