ELC at George Earle Weekly Update

We just had the most exciting few week wait in Kindergarten! Students spent the last few weeks studying the life cycle of an egg. Classrooms were equipped with incubators and each received a dozen or so eggs. Students carefully studied the eggs each day. They learned that they need to gently turn the eggs each day in order for the chicks to develop, use quiet voices in the classroom and the critical temperature the eggs must be kept at in order for the chicks to have the best chance to develop. They were thrilled to witness the hatching process and be joined in their class by joyful peeping of their newly hatched friends!

Monday was M for "Magic Show Day" and the kids were surprised with a magic show preformed by Nate the Great and they absolutely LOVED IT! There were giggles and shocked "ohhhhs & ahhhh's" pouring out of the gym as the kids watched in awe.

While there is tons of fun happening as the school year comes to an end... there is still a lot of learning going on too! Here are the learning goals and high frequency words to be working towards as this Quarter 4 comes to a close.

50/50 Raffle and a raffle for items donated by businesses and friends!!

All proceeds go to the Recurrent Respiratory Papillomatosis Foundation.

RRPF is a rare disease that impedes breathing and speaking and impacts approximately 1-2 children out of 100,000.

Unfortunately, one of these children is the daughter of HHS 2002 graduate, Lisa Warren Tansey and the granddaughter of HHS 1971 graduate Rod Warren and former HMS principal Carolie Warren.

The Warren/Tansey families give you their sincere thanks and deepest gratitude for any part of this journey you feel led to travel.

Thank you!!!!
