Preschool

February 2021

The preschool is learning about how we are different and still the same.

We did an experiment where Ms. Rachel showed the class a white egg and a brown egg. Then she cracked both into a bowl. The brown and white egg looked different on the outside, but looked the same on the inside.

VALENTINE'S DAY

On Thursday, February 11, Ms. Valerie, Parent/Teacher Coordinator with the Stepping Stones Preschool, held a Valentines themed parent activity. Each student was allowed to bring 1 adult with them. The families enjoyed hearing stories, making valentine card boxes, and playing a fun game of heart bingo. Students were given books and treat bags.

SOCIAL STUDIES

The 5th and 6th graders in Ms. Nichols’ Social Studies class spent the 2nd quarter learning about our 50 states and capitals. They separated the United States into 5 regions and learned about each one of them. They designed new state quarters, learned some trivia, and also took quiz over states in the region and their capitals.

Each student chose a state to do research on and then eventually made a state float - basically a shoebox turned upside down and then decorated with state symbols and items representing their state.

Rounding out the unit, each student had to give a short presentation on their state float.
