Operation Christmas Child
Thanks to all those Kindergarten student and parents who donated items and money to our Operation Christmas Child appeal. We were able to make and give 15 boxes. What a blessing to the children! Thanks everyone.
Science Experiment
Today we concluded our weather unit by testing our 'wind meter' to see where the wind blew the strongest in our playground.
The children had to attach different materials to a coathanger to see how they moved in a variety of situations. It was interesting to find a wind tunnel in the stairwell and the lower field was a good place for a strong wind.
Here are our photos.
