The Young Fives Doctor’s Office is open! Our friends learned about caring for patients, asking them how they were feeling, recording their weight and height, and then treating them to get better. Some friends had their blood pressure checked and their heart listened to, while others got shots (they had their hand held!) and band aids. We took turns as an office receptionist, patients, and as medical caregivers.

All Aboard!! The children at the ECEC hopped on the Polar Express today and spent some time at the North Pole! ;) Cookie decorating, hot chocolate, jingle bell crafts, pancake lunch, and a viewing of the movie was enjoyed by all. A huge thank you goes out to the parent volunteers and staff who spent time taping out train tracks through the hall ways, assisting our students with all the activities, and making this event so memorable!

We had a special visitor at the ECEC today, Mr. Grinch! Mr. Grinch started off his visit with some unsafe and disrespectful choices. But, after spending time with Wolfie and our students, he learned how to be safe, respectful, and a team player. Mr. Grinch's heart grew three sizes today and he even earned a red ticket!

Kindergarten students participated in classroom "Cookie Elections" on Tuesday, November 5th for election day. It was a great experience for students to learn the concept of elections, decision making and critical thinking, majority rule, and community participation. The classes made voter ID cards, posters to promote their vote, and cast their vote on a ballot into the ballot box. In the end OREOS were the winning cookie for all classes! We ended the activity with a yummy Oreo treat!"
