A highlight of Kindergarten is our time spent traveling the world on the Polar Express! Every December, we pack our suitcases, make our passports, grab our tickets and adventure around the world, learning about how other countries celebrate Christmas and comparing their traditions to ours! 
  Throughout this adventure, we learn how to say "Merry Christmas" in the language spoken in each country, discover a few special foods, toys, or traditions that they have, and read several books from each of the countries. It is such a magical time, full of exploring new things and opening our eyes to the world around us! This year, we were able to travel to countries like Mexico, Sweden, Australia, and England to name a few!

   Take a look a a few pictures from our adventure around the world! 

This week, the Kindergartners got the privilege to spend the morning in 2nd grade with their reading buddies! This was a time that the Kindergartners could bond with older students and most importantly, learn just how wonderful books and reading are! They were able to discover some the the 2nd graders favorite books, find sight words that they can read and enjoy a treat with their wonderful friends!
  It was such a great way to share the wonders of books with both grades!
