Penguin Parade

Img_02482The all-day kindergarten class recently began a unit on penguins.  It will expose students to some math, some science, and some reading, as well as the main topic of penguins. Kate uses the morning question board to help the kindergartners remember something they learned the day before, and keep them thinking. They are learning and having fun at the same time.  In this photo, students compare their height to that of an adult emperor penguin.  Click here for more photos of the morning question board.
