May 4-8, 2026

Our learning this week:

  • We locked down our incubator because the geese will be hatching soon! Please follow this link to check in on them throughout the weekend - they could hatch early!!!
  • We learned when to say a soft c sound like "s" 
  • We learned about Red Dress Day. This is an important day for Indigenous people to remember special women in their lives that have gone missing.
  • We began wondering about sunflowers, learning about their lifecycle, and we started growing our own!
  • We learned about how to take care of our mental health for Hats on for Mental Health Day.
  • We had an amazing time learning about how to make a yogurt parfait with the Food Impact program! Sydney taught us about different foods that are good for our bodies, how to use plastic kid-friendly knifes safely, and how to try new foods!
  • We went outside to observe nature closely with our magnifying glasses. We found so many lady bugs!
