Horton Award

The book Horton Hears a Who came out in 1954 by Doctor Seuss. The book tells a tale of an elephant who hears something on a speck of dust, and believes that he must keep the tiny speck safe at all costs. It is discovered that the little speck happens to be a little planet, which Horton ends up saving and the motto of the mayor is "a person's a person no matter how small."

I have chosen to call the name of this award the Horton Award because it is the little things that a person does throughout the day that can really make a difference. Today's certificate was awarded to Christopher for his leadership, participation, and teamwork. Great job Hannah ! Your efforts do not go unnoticed!

Friday's Combination Class

Students in Ms. Nadine's combination class worked on matching shapes. Here is a photo of the play group and preschoolers working on this assignment.

Beehive School Has a Fence

Saturday, April 24th, the fence went up at the school. We would like to extend a big thank you to all that came out and volunteered their time, effort, and hard work. Without you, this would've been impossible. Now we can rest assured knowing our children are playing outside in a secured area.

Play Group Hard at Work

In playgroup, we have continued our Spring Unit focusing on the life cycle of a dandelion as well as creating our April flowers. The pictures above show the students working on the life cycle of a dandelion as well as free structured play where students played image bingo where they had to match the image on their card with the images piled in the middle. Students also worked on learning their colors and shapes and threading these on a string to create a catepillar. Great work playgroup.

Structured Play Time

The playgroup spent time playing games as part of their structured free time. We played one game where they had to catch as many marbles that they could in the mouth of the squirrel. During this time, students were asked to count how many marbles they had and what color they were. It always showed them cause and effect.

The other structured game was a fishing game and students had to see how many fish they could catch on their magnetic fish pole. The students played very well together. This was a good exercise not only in academic learning, but social skills (learning to take turns). Great job playgroup.

Playgroup Arts and Crafts

This week e are focusing on Spring and learning about how flowers grow, learning how to classify flowers in size from small to big, and the life cycle of a dandelion. To further their study, students made their own flowers out of cupcake paper, pom poms, and pipe cleaners. They also are making beautiful canvas bags with their hand prints as flowers which will be hanging on their hooks to put their extra clothes. Nice work playgroup!

Last week, students worked hard on all of their Easter crafts. In particular, they made these wonderful Easter eggs out of tissue paper. They first had pieces of tissue paper, they rolled them up, and then stuck them on a pre-cut pattern. They turned out quite lovely.

Spring has Sprung

At the Beehive School, students in all grade levels have just started their Spring Unit looking specifically at flowers. Here are some flowers painted by the preschool class.

With Easter and the Easter Bunny on it's way, we have been busy making Easter baskets for all of the children to take home. Some have had to take them early, since they will not be here next week. Geno received his early and he was quite proud.

Trip to the Farm by Our School

All of the students in playgroup, preschool, pre-k, and kindergarten have been enjoying time outside with the great weather.

They have played outside at the playground, went on nature walks in the forest, and visited the farm across the street where students can see horses, calves, and cows. It is great to have spring finally here.
