Mrs. Kapfer talked with Mrs. Fossum's kindergarten class about feelings and how they affect our bodies. When we feel worried, we might feel it in our tummies, but when we are happy, we feel it in our cheeks from smiling! The students in KF then got to pick colors that represent four emotions and where they might feel that in their body. What a great lesson on our emotions and how they affect our bodies!
Miss Hart shared some of her favorite books with her kindergarten students this morning! She shared with her students how she loved the story “Biscuit” so much that she named her dog after the puppy in the story! Miss Hart also shared memories she has with “If You Give a Mouse a Cookie,” “If You Take a Mouse to the Movies,” “Ferdinand,” and “Eat Your Peas, Louise.” Each book holds a special place in her heart. Now, she gets to share them with her students and help them gain a love for reading! What is your favorite book from your childhood?
