Wonderful Fieldtrip at the Children's Discovery Museum

We had so much fun on our field trip!
 Thanks to all the parents who made it a terrific day!
We went to twelve different hands on centers and then enjoyed our picnic lunch
on the warm sunny patio.

Good bye Chicks!

Here we are holding the chicks and saying good bye!

Here a chick, There a chick, Everywhere a chick chick

It was a VERY exciting week in kindergarten!!! Our first chicks hatched on Monday.

They are in a box with a light to keep them warm.  We have 8 chicks out of 12 eggs!

So thrilled to finally get to hold a chick.  Hannah Snodgrass, a former student, helped the kids learn how to hold the chicks.

Happy day!

Dr. Amy Snodgrass is trying to help our little chick with bad legs.   We are keeping our fingers crossed.

Love seeing the wonderful stories in our homework journals this week.  Look at those cute feathers.  Nice job Chloe!

Great pictures and terrific story Rachel.

Great job Jake! I'm proud of you!

Learning about what was happening in those eggs for 21 days!

Our cute chicks!

Community Helpers - Redlands Police

We were very excited to have some special visitors on Friday.  This is Officer Breanna Herrera reading a funny story to our class.  

In this picture, Officer Patrick Estrada, Officer Nelson Rodriguez and Officer Crane (Nolan's dad)

Officer Patrick Estrada has a wonderful partner.  This is Kass.  He was very happy to be in kindergarten.

Kass was trained to find something that the officer hid in the classroom.  His reward was a tennis ball.
Boy did he get excited when he was given his ball.

The kids were very interested in Kass.  They wanted to pet him, but you can't pet a working dog.

Officer Crane arranged the visitors from the Redlands Police Department.
Nolan was thrilled to have his Dad come to school.

We enjoyed the visit.  I hope the children came home and shared their Community Helper books they made at school.
