Upcoming

Here in the Galaxy Room, we are blasting back to earth from our space unit and preparing to move on to our study of North America. We will start by locating North America on a map, identifying the landforms of North America and variety of biomes throughout the continent. We will find out more about the current and historical cultures of North America as well as the animal life that is present here. Our afternoon kindergarten will take a closer look at the United States, history, landmarks, and individuals who left an important impact on our country.

First Week of October

Wow, Fall is in the air and how pleasant it is with the cool air, light breeze and the leaves beginning to change! This week we will wrap up our study of the human body and turn our focus to the sensory system. We will learn about our five senses and how they work with our brains to give us information about the world around us. We will perform a variety of activities as a group using our various senses and individually as well. Have a great week! Next week, the Galaxy Room will 'blast off' into space!!
