🐮🚜 It’s Farm Day in Kindergarten🌾🐷
Our kindergarten classrooms have been transformed into the farm for a special day full of fun and learning!
🧮🐴 Students reviewed their math skills through hands-on farm-themed activities — counting many farm animals and several items that you might see on a farm🌽
Our Kindergarten Jaguars also completed 1️⃣ 0️⃣ different counting challenges!
They even got to explore two sensory stations where they sheared sheep 🐑 and milked a cow 🐄 — talk about learning through experience!
We love seeing our little farmers hard at work and having a blast while learning. 💛
