Founder's Day

On Wednesday, we celebrated our Founder's Day - the day Cornelia Connelly founded the Society of the Holy Child Jesus and our legacy began! We started the day with a prayer service where all the classes were commissioned with their service partners for the year. Pre-K and Kindergarten are in charge of all our school drives and Jack represented our class at the commissioning.

Traditionally on Founder's Day, the older students partner with the younger students to remind us of Cornelia's spirit of joy, community, and shared learning. Our 5th grade buddies came to Pre-K to spend some time with us!

Pumpkin Unit

We continued learning about pumpkins with our Kindergarten friends this week. On Tuesday, we worked on some pumpkin math and used cubes to measure how tall our pumpkins were. Students worked together to build the cubes as tall as their pumpkins, count each cube using one-to-one correspondence, and determine the height. The average was 7 cubes tall!

We even incorporated our pumpkins into music! We had a special music class with Miss Nast and she taught us "Five Little Pumpkins!" Check out our amazing singing!

Making Connections!

We love when the students take what they are learning in school and incorporate it into their play!
