What a great September we have had! We have finished our first STEM unit on Life Cycles. The students loved the story The Very Hungry Caterpillar and watching our live caterpillars change into butterflies! I want to thank all of the families that participated in our family project. It was a big success! Students felt so proud when they shared their projects with their friends. Trick or Treat Street offers a soft start/low-sensory time from 4:30-4:50 for students with special needs. Curriculum*Our math focus for the month of October is Number Sense.
