Kindergarten is a busy place for learning! Please enjoy the pics of Mrs. Evan's class learning: playing a memory game with students' photos to help new students learn each other's names, writing, making 3-D shapes with play dough and straws, dissecting owl pellets, and receiving their River Hawk stuffed animal. So much purposeful fun and learning happens all day in Kindergarten!

The students in Mrs. Everett's kindergarten class have been studying animals and habitats as part of our K for ME program. Students have been observing owl pellets to learn what owls eat (STEM Center), building animal habitats for forest animals (Blocks Center) and learning how to care for sick or injured wildlife at the Wildlife Rehab Center (Drama Center). Integrating the study of animals and habitats supports and enriches the student's background knowledge as well as literacy and mathematical learning. Enjoy the wonderful pics of learning.

Lost and Found at the MCSCS has grown over the last few months. We have tables set up in the lobby for children to look at and parents can ask at the main office to also come in to look for items. The items are organized by size and by sweatshirts/jackets. After the holiday break we will be placing these items in our school clothing closet. Please encourage your child to stop and take a look.
