A big shout out to the kindergarten crew for planning and creating the "pumpkin patch" experience for Baker's kindergarten students!
Welcome to Baker's Pumpkin Patch!!!
Baker ended Red Ribbon Week with "Catch my Swag"! Check out Baker's swag.
After reading Crankenstein, Mrs. Garmon's class read a variety of books with characters that faced obstacles that caused them to experience all types of extreme emotions. The class discussed and responded with what makes them furious and shared a strategy that helps them calm down.
Kindergarten classes take a group picture after enjoying 'Baker's Pumpkin Patch".
