Ms. Kelsie and Ms. Liz's class are learning about Mat Man! Mat Man helps children learn about their bodies by building a person step by step using hands-on pieces and movement. These lessons strengthen fine motor skills, body awareness, listening skills, and early pre-writing skills—all while having fun! We love watching learning come to life through play.

This week Ms. Kiera and Ms. Carol's class are learning about the 5 Senses of Christmas. They explored many smells that are around us this time of year. They worked together in groups to explore and talk about the scents. Then played a game where they had to guess the scent in the ball. Throughout the day the students were able to continue to explore the scents and talk with their friends about their favorite smells and the smells that they did not like.
