My Project

We are a group of extraordinary, always on the go, curious students.

Our learning in kindergarten is based on exploration; exploration of the natural world around around us.

These materials will allow us to explore and will enhance our development. The translucent stones, letters and blocks (that we can add to our light table) will help us experiment with light and color. The owl pellets and butterfly larva will supplement our animal unit and allow us to have a better understanding of animal body structures and life cycles. The easel and paints will give us a place to document our learning!
