Classroom Update:
The past two weeks have been so eventful in our classroom! We have created so many wonderful projects and went on so many awesome field trips during April Vacation week! We burned some energy at Simonds Park in Burlington. We learned a ton about wild animals at the Franklin Park Zoo. We mixed and made our own homemade pasta and salad with Kids' Cooking Green and we finished the week in awe from the performers at the Big Apple Circus.
We had a visit from Kidstock and did a workshop on mythological tales! Next week we will begin collecting donations for the Winchester Hospital's pediatric and "tween" units (ages 0-12yo). They are in need of new card games, board games and books! All donated items must be brand new and unopened, the hospital can not accept used items. Donations can be made in the bin located in the front hallway near the K-1 room. If you have any questions, please see a K-1 room teacher.
For those who don't already know, Kids' Corner is a non profit organization which can benefit from your shopping when you use our Amazon Smile link! Kids' Corner will receive a percentage back from your purchases when you set us up as your benefitting charity. Please see the "Donate to KC" button at the bottom of the newsletter!

BIG GROUP ACTIVITIES
For Big Group Game, we played Cat and Mouse with the parachute! The kids took turns being either a mouse hiding under the parachute, or a cat trying to tag the mouse from above the parachute while the rest of the class shook the parachute to make it harder to find the mouse!

PROJECTS
The warmer weather is finally here and has inspired many spring themed projects the last few weeks! The kids made their own paper plate rainbows, decorated miniature kites and made their own fairy houses. We also continued with some mythical and magical projects. The kids decorated their own greek vases and transformed into unicorns with paper horns! We baked up some delicious blueberry muffins and as always, we had a variety of fun sports!
