Intermediate Intros

On Friday, May School intermediate students introduced themselves to their peers with a slide that featured a baby photo, a value, and a mantra. They also practiced presentation and social skills in the process!

Around the Nest

Science: This week in Ms. Carol’s science class, we have been investigating some properties of water such as cohesion, adhesion, surface tension, and capillary action.

Art: In Ms. Brenda’s art class, the students spent time outside drawing what they saw and making beautiful nature mandalas.

Music: In music class, “Talking Hands/Talking Feet” taught us more silly songs and got the kids moving around.

Reading: This week in Ms. Connie’s class, each student brought in their favorite book from when they were very young. The children chose to read their book to their peers or have Ms. Connie read it. It was a very special experience for all! The EC class also created a craft after reading “Corduroy.”
