Guess what our Kindergarten Eagles mastered? 🎉

Friday our kindergarten eagles learned the difference between letters and numbers with a super fun review game in the gym! 🦅📚 Students each had an index card with either a letter or a number and raced to place it in the correct pile. They kept playing until they got them all right — movement, and learning all rolled into one. Way to go, Eagles! 🥳

Who knew dice could do so much? 🎲 In Mrs. Koerner’s kindergarten class, each student rolled a die, counted the dots, and then made that many dots on their paper. A perfect mix of math practice and fine motor work — and the kids loved it! 🦅💛🖤💛🦅
