On Tuesday afternoon the Pre-K kids walked down to Pioneer Manor for story-time with the residents. We listened to Hailey Toof read 2 books about Ember, the dragon, who learns baking is better than gold! Then we finished up our time with a yummy snack and some conversations across generations. Thank you for the invitation Pioneer Manor!
The am PK and Senior Buddies are back at it!
Yesterday the am PK finished their volleyball unit with big kid volleyballs; learning how to get low and eventually pass!
Today, Dr. Coffey took the pairs through several teamwork exercises including the adapted three legged, wheelbarrow, squats, back to back, and animal races. Students learned the importance of communication and trust. It’s always a great day to be outside with our youngest Hawks paired with our most experienced Hawks for moments like this!
Another fabulous adventure with the AM preschoolers and their senior sidekicks!
After reading aloud “Going on a Bear Hunt,” Dr. Coffey sent everyone off into the “wild” to go on a “Bear Hunt” or “Nature Hunt” of their own!
The students were able to find and identify the following: leaf, flower, twig, tree, spider web, bird, sun, ant, grass, bee, and plant. 🙌🏻
While K-11th graders were working hard at their NWEA testing, Dr. Coffey, the seniors, and the AM preschoolers were playing balloon volleyball!
The PreK class held their annual Grandparent Pumpkin Carving party and here are the results! Looks like a great time!
These happy campers wrapped up preschool last Wednesday at “Summer Camp”! We watched “A Bugs Life” and ate s’mores around a campfire!
Now presenting our future doctors, nurses, teachers, farmers, ranchers, athletes, vets, ninjas and leaders…the class of 2038!
