Dear VAES Families,
On Friday, our Kindergarteners had their Animals Project Celebration. Wow!!!
Our Kindergarten students demonstrated their ability to compare and contrast different types of the same animal by studying various sub-groups of that animal. Students were broken into animal subgroups within their classrooms to become experts on an animal they chose. The animals studied were: Bears, Birds, Cats, Dogs, & Lizards. They displayed this knowledge as “experts” in small groups by teaching families and other students about the animals they researched and studied and how their specific animal was alike or different from others in that animal family. I loved how each class showed the steps and the processes that went into their project! It truly brings me such joy to see the excitement and the hard work demonstrated by each student and their teachers and teacher assistants. Bravo, Kindergarten!!
