Show and Tell

We are all so excited for Show and Tell!  Some examples of show and tell could be a favorite book, special lovey, a picture of your family, pet, or favorite small toy.  Show and tell is fun but also gives the class an opportunity to build some essential skills, such as promoting turn taking, communication skills, builds listening skills, and helps self confidence!

School Bus Visit

Today, the school bus came to visit our Kindergarten Boot Camp cadets!  They were so excited to meet "Buster" the friendly talking bus.  We also learned the proper way to get on and off the bus, the safety zone around the bus, and bus rules to keep us safe!
