Thursday the afternoon Preschool class visited the Assisted Living. We brought puzzles to work on while we were there. The residents were so happy to see the kids and help them put the puzzles together! Working with the older adults provides learning opportunities, care and social support for children and older people in the same setting, at the same time. These can benefit wellbeing across generations as children and older adults interact and exchange knowledge and skills.
We visited the Post Office last week with both classes! Here pictures of the afternoon class learning about the Postal Service from Mrs. Kelly. We appreciate her taking time out of her day to show us around. Thank you!
It's a first round win for Carlee Hinz at the state wrestling tournament! Way to go, Carlee!
