September 23-27, 2024

Did you know that there are dinosaur bones buried here at HCA? Don't worry, we didn't either, but just ask your children and they can tell you all about it! We have budding archaeologists in Pre-K!






In P.E. class this week, Miss Mann worked with the Pre-K students on balance. Learning how to balance properly is a vital gross motor skill that forms the foundation for many other movement activities. Look at the concentration on their faces!











Hispanic Heritage Month

We celebrated Hispanic Heritage Month with our friends in Kindergarten. After learning about what a culture was, we examined the globe and discovered that Central and South America are home to many Hispanic families. We listened to a beautiful story called Dreamers by Yuyi Morales, that tells her own story of when she and her some immigrated to the United States. We sang and danced along to "Don Alfredo Baila:"


We even learned to dance the Bachata from Miss Diana from the Miami Children's Museum. Try it at home with your child!
