Mrs. Moyers and Mrs. Loudin’s kindergarten class had a blast with relay races to practice the C-K rule and writing CVC words! The students raced to spell words correctly while having fun and staying active. Check out the winning team in the last picture! ✏️📚










Mrs. Coombs and Mrs. Skinner's kindergarten class had a blast learning about living and non-living things with a Generation Genius Lesson! After a fun discussion, students grabbed their clipboards and headed outside to explore, observe, and record what they discovered in nature. They loved being little scientists for the day! 🧪🔬
