Picture Day at Little Fishes Swim School


News from Kindergarten










Dear Parents:   Mr. Kearney brought us a branch from a redbud tree which is blooming in our window.  Spring is on its way!   We introduced a science unit, Materials in Our World, this week.  There are two activities your child may like to do at home in the Friday folder.  We will continue these investigations after spring break.   We have been exploring books from the Dr. Seuss Beginning Reading series for partner reading.  Your child may want to look for these next time you visit the library.  Have a wonderful spring break!  k.
