Miss Laura's Hospital, "Paging, Dr....."

We turned into little doctors with our homemade doctor kits, light reflectors and doctor masks!

A Visit from Officer Shallot! (PM class)

It was such a treat that Officer Shallot took time out of his busy schedule as a police officer to come by school and talk to the boys and girls about the important job he as an Auburn police Officer. He brought his police dog, police car and even had some cool stickers to hand out to everyone. We had a great time learning all about police officers!

A.M. Class on Hill Playground

With it being the last week of school, I wanted to try to do as many fun activities as possible. My afternoon class was able to visit and play on the hill playground for their "Kindergarten Visit" day and seeing how much fun they had, I had to test it out with morning class! As you can see, we had a blast!!!!
