What We Are Learning in PreKindergarten

Students in PreKindergarten measured and weighed themselves after the New Year. They are comparing how much they have grown from the beginning of the school year to now.


As well, they have been experimenting with mixing colors. Using eye-droppers, the children combined drops of red, yellow and blue water (the primary colors) into empty cups to see what new colors they could make.
