After reading the story, Farm Animals, and learning about what different animals do on farms, students in Ms. Potts' Kindergarten class chose their favorite farm animal and drew about what makes that animal special. They then got to practice speaking in front of others, using “loud proud voices”, by presenting their posters to the rest of the class!
A BIG thanks to Ms. Davidson, our Instructional Technology Specialist, who taught all 2nd grade classes how to create a digital book and all the skills that go along with it. Students will use these skills to create a Johnny Appleseed book during their upcoming Wit & Wisdom unit.
