Highland Ridge Service Learning Project

Mrs. Morgan and Mrs. Lynch's Kindergarten classes visited Highland Ridge Assisted Living on Friday, April 2. The students sang for the residents of Highland Ridge, made an Easter bunny craft for the residents, and played jacks with them. We also showed them how smart we were by reading for them and by playing our spelling game, Sparkle. The students touched a lot of hearts...and had fun doing it. Check out a few pictures below.

Dinosaur World

Our class had the most participants at Highland Day at Dinosaur World back in November, and as our reward, a representative from Dinosaur World came to our class to teach us all about dinosaurs! Check out some pictures below from our Dinosaur World visit:

Dr. Seuss' Birthday

March 2 was Dr. Seuss' birthday and we celebrated in style! Check out our pictures below:

Louis, Jordan, and Cam'ron mixing up their green eggs.

Kennedy and Mitchell enjoying their green eggs and ham!

The Cat in the Hat...better known as Mr. Muhlenkamp...read "I Can Read With My Eyes Shut" to our class!

A fifth grade reading class came to read Dr. Seuss books to us. But some of our Kindergartners impressed the big kids by reading TO THEM!

Big and bold,
You're worth twenty-five,
