A Published Author visits Hammond Kindergarten
A great big thank you to the author of the book
Charley's Columbia Backyard,
Caroline Bennett,
for visiting kindergarten last week. The children enjoyed hearing a story about their city, Columbia. It was very exciting for our young writers to hear how a professional author publishes a book from start to finish. If you would like to purchase an autographed copy of her fantastic book please turn in the order form that was included in this Tuesday's envelope.
Successful Field Study To City Roots
All Kindergarteners had great time experiencing the only sustainable, organic farm in Columbia. It may have been a chilly morning, but these Skyhawks learned so much! We were able to visit with the hens, dig up worms in the greenhouse where microgreens grow, and watch the honey bees fly around their hives. This was a fabulous, fun trip that reinforced many of the facts we have been learning about in science. We also learned many new things about how farmers grow and maintain their crops on a sustainable farm.
