Good afternoon Kinder families!
We started our week with the quaint celebration of q and u’s wedding! The students had so much fun learning all about different ‘qu’ words and got to attend a wedding! Thanks to those who brought in photos. Today we learned about Cinco de Mayo and conducted some surveys and made some delicious snacks! We will share the photos as a Google photos album.
